Damp Proof Course (DPC) – 225mm Wide x 30m – Pack of 4 Rolls

Help protect brickwork, blockwork and masonry against rising damp and ground moisture with this 225mm Wide Damp Proof Course (DPC), supplied as a convenient pack of 4 x 30 metre rolls.

Designed for installation within brick and block walls, this durable and flexible waterproof DPC creates a continuous moisture barrier that helps prevent ground moisture travelling upwards through porous masonry materials.

With a versatile 225mm width, this damp proof course is ideal for a wide range of cavity walls, masonry construction, extensions, garages and general building projects where dependable protection against rising damp is required.

225mm Wide Damp Proof Course

A correctly installed Damp Proof Course is an important part of protecting buildings against moisture rising from the ground.

Installed horizontally within brickwork or blockwork, the DPC creates a waterproof barrier designed to interrupt the upward movement of moisture through bricks, blocks and mortar.

For customers searching for 225mm damp proof course, 30m DPC roll, DPC for brick walls, or damp proof course for cavity walls, this convenient four-roll pack provides a practical solution for domestic and trade construction projects.

Helps Prevent Rising Damp

Rising damp occurs when moisture from the ground travels upwards through porous building materials such as brickwork, blockwork and mortar.

Without an effective damp-proof barrier, this moisture can eventually reach internal walls and finishes, potentially leading to damp patches and long-term deterioration.

Installing a suitable DPC within the masonry helps interrupt this upward movement of moisture.

A correctly installed damp proof course can help reduce the risk of:

  • Rising damp
  • Damp patches on walls
  • Moisture penetration
  • Mould growth
  • Mildew
  • Fungal residues
  • Damaged plaster
  • Peeling paint or wallpaper
  • Moisture-related deterioration of masonry

Versatile 225mm DPC Width

At 225mm wide, this DPC is a popular and versatile size suitable for a wide range of masonry details.

It provides greater coverage than narrower 100mm and 150mm DPC rolls while remaining straightforward to handle, position and cut during installation.

Typical applications include:

  • Cavity walls
  • Wider brickwork details
  • Blockwork
  • Wall junctions
  • Foundation details
  • Extensions
  • Garages
  • General masonry construction

The roll can also be cut where required to suit specific construction details.

Pack of 4 x 30m Rolls

Each pack contains 4 individual rolls, with each roll measuring 225mm wide x 30m long.

The four-roll pack is particularly useful for:

  • New-build projects
  • House extensions
  • Garages
  • Workshops
  • Long masonry runs
  • Multiple walls
  • Property renovation
  • Trade construction projects

Having multiple rolls available also provides useful additional material for overlaps, corners, junctions and other detailed areas.

Serrated Diamond-Cut Surface

This Damp Proof Course features a serrated diamond-cut surface on both the top and bottom.

The textured finish is designed to improve grip within the mortar bed and help prevent the DPC from slipping while bricks or blocks are being positioned.

Benefits of the textured surface include:

  • Improved grip within mortar
  • Greater installation stability
  • Reduced membrane movement
  • Easier positioning of brickwork
  • More secure placement within masonry

This makes it particularly well suited to permanent installation within brick and block construction.

Suitable for Brick & Block Walls

This DPC is designed for horizontal anti-damp isolation within brick and block masonry.

It can be incorporated into a wide variety of wall constructions to help create a continuous barrier against rising moisture.

Typical applications include:

  • Brick walls
  • Concrete block walls
  • Cavity walls
  • External walls
  • Internal masonry walls
  • House extensions
  • Garages
  • Workshops
  • Garden buildings
  • New-build properties
  • Refurbishment projects

Durable & Flexible Construction

A good damp proof course needs to be durable enough for permanent installation while remaining flexible enough to handle easily during construction.

This DPC combines both qualities.

Its flexible construction makes it straightforward to:

  • Roll out
  • Position
  • Cut
  • Form around corners
  • Fit around wall junctions
  • Adapt to different masonry details

while maintaining the durability required for long-term moisture protection.

Alkali Resistant

Mortar, concrete and other cement-based building materials are naturally alkaline.

Because Damp Proof Course remains permanently incorporated within masonry, resistance to these alkaline conditions is important for long-term performance.

This DPC is alkali resistant, making it suitable for prolonged contact with mortar, brickwork and blockwork.

Watertight at Greater Than 2kPa

The DPC has a specified watertightness greater than 2kPa, helping it provide an effective moisture barrier when correctly installed.

Maintaining continuity is essential for effective damp protection.

Particular care should be taken around:

  • Corners
  • Wall junctions
  • Door openings
  • Window openings
  • Changes in level
  • Service penetrations
  • Overlapping sections

to avoid leaving gaps that could allow moisture to bypass the damp-proof barrier.

Low-Temperature Resistance to -25°C

This damp proof course is designed to remain resistant at temperatures down to approximately -25°C.

This helps maintain flexibility during colder storage and building-site conditions.

Ideal For

The 225mm Wide Damp Proof Course is suitable for a wide variety of construction projects, including:

  • New-build houses
  • House extensions
  • Garages
  • Workshops
  • Garden rooms
  • Outbuildings
  • Brick construction
  • Block construction
  • Cavity wall details
  • Foundation details
  • Property refurbishment
  • Masonry repairs
  • General building projects

DPC Installation

Correct installation is essential for creating an effective moisture barrier.

When installing:

  • Ensure the mortar bed is level and properly prepared
  • Lay the DPC flat without unnecessary folds or creases
  • Make sure the membrane covers the required wall width
  • Maintain continuity around corners and junctions
  • Allow suitable overlaps where separate lengths meet
  • Avoid puncturing or damaging the DPC
  • Bed the membrane securely into the mortar
  • Connect adjoining damp-proofing systems correctly where required
  • Follow the project specification and applicable building requirements

A continuous DPC is important because gaps or damaged sections may allow moisture to bypass the barrier.

DPC vs DPM – What’s the Difference?

A Damp Proof Course (DPC) and Damp Proof Membrane (DPM) both protect buildings against moisture, but they are generally installed in different areas.

A DPC is usually installed horizontally within walls to prevent moisture travelling upwards through brickwork and blockwork.

A DPM is generally supplied as a much wider sheet and installed beneath concrete floors and slabs.

In many construction projects, the two systems are connected to create a continuous damp-proof barrier throughout the building.

Connect the DPC to the Floor DPM

Where a building also incorporates a floor Damp Proof Membrane, the wall DPC and floor DPM may need to be correctly connected.

Maintaining continuity between the two damp-proofing systems helps reduce the risk of moisture finding an alternative route into the building.

Always follow the relevant construction detail and project specification when connecting DPC and DPM products.

Suitable for New Builds & Refurbishment

The 225mm Wide DPC is suitable for both new construction and appropriate refurbishment work.

It is particularly useful when:

  • Constructing new brick or block walls
  • Building an extension
  • Constructing a garage
  • Completing cavity wall details
  • Rebuilding damaged masonry
  • Improving existing damp-proofing
  • Carrying out foundation work
  • Completing property renovation
