How much will you need?

Things to check before you order

DPC width

Match the DPC width to the wall leaf so it runs the full width of the masonry.

Laps and joints

DPM and DPC need generous laps and sealed joints; follow the manufacturer's guidance.

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

How delivery works in Hythe

• Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around SO45 are priced to the exact address.

• Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.

Questions about damp proofing delivery in Hythe

Do I need a radon barrier?

It depends on where you are. In radon-affected areas building control requires radon protection in new buildings and extensions.

Can you deliver damp proofing to a site with restricted access in Hythe?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

What is the difference between DPC and DPM?

DPC is a strip built into walls to stop damp rising through the masonry. DPM is a sheet laid under a concrete floor slab. They are lapped together so there is no gap.

Do you deliver damp proofing to trades and homeowners in Hythe?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
