Hi
I am ready to put the DPM down in my extension, but the walls have already been built, so I can't tuck it over the DPC.
I know I can tape it to the wall, but I don't know how far up the wall (and what sort of tape).
Can anyone help please? Do I need to use double sided tape or tape over the ends with single sided, and should the DPM go higher than the DPC or level or what?
Also I've seen people saying to use a mastic strip instead of tape. Would that be something like this;
http://www.toolstation.com/shop/Adh...+Gutter+Mastic+300ml+Black/d180/sd2350/p11002
and is that better than tape?
Thanks for any help!
