Damp Proofing & Membranes: choosing well

Laps and joints

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

DPC width

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

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.

Questions about damp proofing delivery in Stretford

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.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Stretford?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

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

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

Where does the DPC go?

Usually at least 150 mm above outside ground level, linked to the floor DPM.
