Sorry, I need your advice (or approval) again.
I'm not at that stage yet, just thinking ahead.
I'm going to be installing a new dpm and I have to, partially, match to an existing dpc. Plan attached, new walls in red:
View media item 27646
Bathroom will be completely new slab and kitchen will be partially new slab, i.e meeting and matching existing slab, with overlapped dpm below screed.
The issue is the exisiting dpc is about 175mm below internal ffl. As shown;

Where the new dpm meets the continued dpc in the new walls, there's no problem I can just lap the dpm over the new dpc, even though it'll still be about 175mm below ffl 'cos I want to maintain the same ffl throughout. And it'll mean laying a couple of courses above dpc before laying concrete slab.

Where the new dpm meets the existing dpc in the existing walls, I was going to just extend the dpm up the wall to finish about level with the top of the screed.
The new dpm will be about 75mm below existing dpc, below insulation.
So it will be a bit of this and a bit of that.
Anyone see any problem with that?
