This widget is of particular interest to professional builders who are seeking to increase their skill set, turning their hand to the essential task of wall tie installation or replacement. Enter the dimensions of all walls and gable apexes that require treatment before specifying the construction type to reveal how many wall ties will be necessary for completion of the project.How much DPC do I need?

Suitable for professionals and competent DIYers alike, this essential widget quickly calculates how much damp proofing cream will be needed to create a successful chemical damp proof course in various types of masonry wall. As well as showing how many litres of DPC are required, our convenient calculator also displays the correct quantity of tubes, cartridges, tubs or boxes the product will be supplied in. Don’t forget to add extra metres to your given dimensions for the installation of a vertical DPC if walls continue beyond the treatment (e.g. as with DPC installation to a terraced property).
