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.

Is radon protection needed?

Parts of the UK need radon protection in new buildings and extensions. UKHSA radon maps show the areas; building control will tell you what applies.

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.

Getting damp proofing onto your Yate site

Rolls are light enough to travel with a mixed load and are handed off at the kerb. Yate is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• With roughly 7h 49m of daylight in Yate around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
• Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.

Quantities: a worked example

An extension in Yate with 12 m of cavity wall needs DPC in both leaves: about 1 roll in 30 m lengths once laps are allowed for. A 20 m² floor slab needs about 23 m² of DPM including laps, which is 1 roll of 4 × 25 m sheeting.

Ordering damp proofing for Yate: FAQs

How thick should a DPM be?

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.
