Great, I'll do that thanks for the advice!

Thanks - yeah I was expecting to be able to see it somewhere but there's no sign of it from the outside. In a related question, will I be alright going up to that level (bottom of weep holes) with the patio if I leave a 4" gap from the wall and fill with gravel for drainage? I'm also planning on...

Yep I believe so, I'm in Scotland and it's a relatively new build (2008). Does that give you a clue as to where the DPC would be? Thanks!
