Timber Frame Renovation - Damp Course Damp can be a major issue in the home. Find answers to questions or post your own here.

[Tally]

We are purchasing a timber framed house that needs renovating.
What sort of damp course would a timber frame property have?
Will it be easy to repair?
The property is weatherboarded so this will all be replaced and we want to do the damp course at the same time

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
