3 good suggestions thanks guys I am my own brickie actually it is me alone doing all the work (and the wife) so I will run this past the building control guy when he is next needed I did see a vid on youtube doing exactly this but the plans specify cavity trays if a radon barrier is used but the building control guy here is very good and goes for practical if he says can so I will probably do it with DPC Again Thanks

Hi all I am looking to find some 150mm Cavity Trays to buy I have searched google and most of them go up to 100mm cavities and come in around the £6 mark I have found 1 supplier that does 150mm trays and they are £12 each even in bulk Just to clarify I live in a radon area so need cavity trays all round the DPC level so I'm going to use a lot of them also they now want 100mm insulation in a 150mm cavity Understandable as it gets very wet cold and windy in pembrokeshire If that is the going price for another 50mm of plastic I will pay it but just thought someone might know of another company that supplies them Thanks for any help Jason

Hi I'm Jason I've been in the building trade many years and now retired so decided to do my own Extension Many years ago I moved into repair and refubishing very old very large normaly listed builings and now coming back to the real world I'm finding how many things have changed in the domestic construction world I'm starting to wonder if there is enough room in a house for all the insulation and damp prevention/ventilation measures 🤣 All kidding aside I'm enjoying the project but it never stops raining here
