Excavating in the new part of the house - is there a DPM

The big question of today is, where is the DPM - is there one - it has been seen in photographs, but has now gone missing.

After cutting back the floor by four inches the DPM is discovered.  Fortunately it is there, and the builder is going to seal over and under it with DPC to make sure the floor stays dry.

This has to be done wherever there are doors and windows on the new part of the house, for some mysterious reason MTS have cut off the DPM in these places, and pretended to have it showing after the architect had been round and asked where the DPC was.  Not only bad building but lies as well.

The master bedroom corner with the windows removed.....







the kitchen window area waiting to be excavated

The roof was held on by two straps with two/three nails - the third strap was not secured at all....... strong wind, no roof!


the strap in the middle had no nails in it on the wall
