Welcome to our category dedicated to Damp Proof Courses (DPC), a crucial component in construction for preventing damp penetration into your home or building. DPCs are essential in prolonging the structural integrity of your building, and we offer a range of products to suit various needs and applications.

Understanding Damp Proof Course

A Damp Proof Course is a barrier, typically installed at the base of building walls, to prevent moisture from rising up through the capillary action known as rising damp. It's an essential part of modern construction, ensuring the longevity and durability of buildings.

How to Choose the Right Damp Proof Course

Selecting the right DPC depends on several factors, including the type of building, the local climate, and specific building regulations. Here are some general guidelines to consider:

  • Building Type: Residential homes might require a different DPC compared to commercial buildings due to size and design variations.
  • Climate: Areas with higher rainfall or humidity levels might need a more robust DPC solution.
  • Construction Materials: The choice of bricks, blocks, or other materials can affect the type of DPC needed.

     

Before making a decision, it's always best to consult with a professional or refer to building regulations specific to your location and building type.
