Quantities: a worked example

An extension in Northumberland with 20 m of cavity wall needs DPC in both leaves: about 2 rolls in 30 m lengths once laps are allowed for. A 15 m² floor slab needs about 17.2 m² of DPM including laps, which is 1 roll of 4 × 25 m sheeting.

• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.

• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.

Before you order damp proofing

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.
