I have recently had all the walls in the kitchen plaster boarded, a
small
gap was left at the bottom and then the plaster board was skimmed.

I have been advised because it is a concrete floor, to put a damp proof
membrane down first then some laminated floor underlay and upon this put
the
cushion flooring.

My question is this. I am about to put some skirting board on, so do I
put
the skirting board on and then lay the membrabe up to it, or do I put
the
membrane down and let it come up the wall a little and then fix the
skirting

Fold the dam so it runs up the wall a little, in an ideal world it would
be
folded in on op of the DPC ... but not possible on an existing building.
You can buy a laminated flooring underlay with a built in DPM .... one
such
is Quickstep Comb.


Lat bit should have been "Quickstep Combifloor" ..... spellchecker culled
the word.
