I need a roll Of Damp-Proof Membrane & some Jointing Tape. Italian builders & builders merchants seem to be completely ignorant of this material & it's use. Any UK builder reading this will know what I'm on about.
I need it to lay over a compacted hardcore base, plus sand, & cast a concrete plinth over it. This layer of 1200 gauge/300 micron heavy-duty polythene sheet that comes in 4 metre wide X 25 metre long rolls can be joined, to extend length or width, with a purpose made waterproof high tack jointing tape &, when the concrete is cured, will exclude all moisture from the ground.
I'm desperate. I never thought it would be so hard to find. I could use the flimsy stuff in the builders merchants & use whatever tape I can find but prefer to have a last ditch effort at finding what I want.
Any-one know who sells it, or is the subject a little too esoteric?

get it off ebay, have it mailed from the uk. Have had same problem getting materials my self in sicily. Have you tried italian ebay also, i have had many tools off of there and had them shipped. Most local ferramente's are too dear. Hope this helps.
