Hi guys,
Drains laid this weekend. Thought the muddy work after the foundations was done, but a mornings of rain, meant a lot more mud.
Any advice on how to tie the new dpc into the existing. This is not a solid slab extension, I'll have suspended timber floor with Oversite. My question here is simply the dpc on each skin of the walls into the existing dpc. Do I try to remove some mortar under the existing and push the new under the existing?
Out of interest, do you genrally keep the dpc at the same level, or is it acceptable to drop it by a coarse or two?
Thanks
Mac
