DPC and wall starters


Pocster

Recommended Posts

Hey all,

 

It's been suggested I run my DPC roll along my first course of blockwork and up a wall. I *assume* the stainless steel wall starter would go ontop the DPC and not the other way around??

Dumb question I know - but easy answer ! xD

Does your Dpc level on new build match that of the existing?

Your build is all rendered,isn't it?

If yes to both-I'd chop out a brick straight  above damp at the point where new meets old & just lap your new dpc onto the existing one.

The existing wall I'm going into has no dpc - it's  concrete blocks clad with stonework 

the build on the other 3 sides will be rendered yes .

so I'm tying into an existing concrete block wall effectively 

 

cheers
