FAQs

Is this sheet suitable for use under concrete floors?

Yes, it is BBA-approved and rated for use as a damp proof membrane in concrete flooring applications.

Can I use this for greenhouse windows?

While it can provide temporary weatherproofing, it is opaque black and will not allow light through, so it is not suitable for clear glazing.

How thick is the sheeting?

The sheeting is 250 microns, which is equivalent to 1000 gauge, indicating a heavy-duty, robust thickness.

Is the material resistant to tears?

Yes, it features high tensile strength and tear resistance specifically designed for heavy-duty use in construction.

Can this be used for weed control?

Absolutely. Its thickness is ideal for laying under gravel to prevent weed growth in pathways or flower beds.

What are the dimensions of the roll?

This specific variant measures 12 meters in length by 4 meters in width.

Troubleshooting

Sheeting is puncturing during installation.

Clear the ground surface of any sharp stones, branches, or construction waste before unfolding the sheet.

Moisture is leaking through the joints.

Ensure a minimum 150mm overlap at all joints and use specialized waterproof damp-proof membrane tape to secure the connection.

Difficulty unrolling the sheet due to folds.

Unfold the sheeting in a warm area for a short period to allow the material to become more pliable, or unfold it on a flat, clean surface and gently smooth it out.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Certified BBA quality assurance
  • High tear and puncture resistance
  • Suitable for building regulation compliance
  • Excellent for both indoor and outdoor utility
  • Generous dimensions for large coverage

Cons

  • Black color prevents light transmission for plant growth
  • Large roll size may be cumbersome for small indoor tasks
  • Requires careful storage to avoid heat-related damage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

When using as a damp proof membrane, ensure the surface is clear of sharp debris that might puncture the film before laying it down. Ensure all joints are overlapped by at least 150mm and sealed with high-quality jointing tape to maintain a moisture-proof seal. For garden use, secure the edges with ground pegs to prevent wind lift. Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to maintain the plastic's elasticity and overall longevity.
