Hi all.
I have ordered 2.2 cu mtrs of concrete for thursday afternoon.
I have layed the DPC and 100mm foil boards but last night it rained much more than the expected shower.
The boards seem to be floating a bit when walked on (probably 3mm of water under some boards). I taped the sides but the rain has got between the edges of the boards and the side of the DPC which was'nt taped.
Is iit going to OK to still lay the concrete slab or do i have to cancel the delivery.
Thanks for any help.

Should be alright the weight of the concrete will force the water out.

Thanks so much.
Thats what i thought, the 100mm of concrete will weigh a lot but i was not sure if the boards would dry out in a period of time or i would get damp coming thru the floor for a long period.
