DPC for a circular window

2 months ago

last modified: 2 months ago

I have 2 circular windows (712mm and 750mm diameters) installed in a rectangular opening and I need advice on installing the DPC. I have had 2 blocklayers telling me different things and I'd like to open it up for discussion and get advice. One told me that I dont need a DPC and the other told me to buy a complete system with tray that can only be installed during construction and not retro-fitted. The windows are set in the middle of 2 solid walls 4" blocks, standard nowadays. I was thinking and comparing to standard rectangular windows that as long as the DPC is installed downwards from behind the window and then under the window then it should be fine right? Any advice anyone?

Would paint a pale blue gray. It would go nicely with your cabinets. Add fabric to to windows and some trim around windows. Nice space

Hi nick. Thanks. Yes, i have come to that realisation after being told it by everyone i speak to! So looking at hedging or other ideas for the side fences then shrubs / plants / flowers for the main parts. I'd be interested innyour ideas. On the other side if the fence, if you mean the road side, the footpath is right up against the fence. I'd say the footpath is maybe 1.5m wide, maybe a bit more.

Thank you Patricia. I just got back from tile store and saw this display which i think is beautiful - it's an italian marble so there will be inconsistencies which I think is actually what I love about it. I would imagine a cream colour kitchen but possibly with a light grey island, or would it be better to stay all the same?

Is it important to you to be able to open the window? If not, you could use blinds straight across to cover the bottom say 2/3 of the window and some type of sheer above gathered to the middle like you see on many arched transoms. Or something like this.
