turfing upto wall Post your questions and find answers on all garden related topics and areas

[rambo77]

iv just had a conservatory built and am noe trying to tidy uo the garden a bit can i turf right up to my dwarf wall even the it will be above the damp course or will need to leave a gap

[htg engineer]

Why will it be above DPC ?

nothing should lie above the damp proof course, leave a gap and fill with gravel so that water can drain away freely, but try to keep turf level and gravel below DPC, not sure but i think its 150mm below
