Risk Assessment Description:

This damp proof course installation safety checklist template from Health & Safety Zone helps bricklayers, plasterers, tilers and site supervisors ensure safe chemical DPC injection and related works.

It covers planning, competence, site conditions, chemical handling, dust control, hand tools, ventilation, personal protective equipment, waste management, spill response and emergency measures. It references the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 and the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑start checks before any DPC injection work begins.
  • Site inspections during the installation process.
  • Post‑work sign‑off and make‑safe verification.

To use this checklist, the supervisor or designated operative ticks Yes, No or N/A for each question. Any No response triggers immediate corrective action before work can continue, and the outcome is recorded on the site safety register. The checklist can be printed or accessed digitally on a tablet, allowing quick verification on‑site.

Each item is answered Yes, No or N/A – any No answer must be resolved before proceeding.

Fully editable and shareable — customise the questions to your project, download as a PDF and share with your team.

Compliant with: Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002; Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015. HSE Guidance on DPC chemical handling is also referenced.

Yes. The checklists are written around UK health and safety good practice and HSE guidance, and are suitable for inspections, audits, toolbox checks and routine workplace monitoring.

Do I need an account to use the checklist templates?

Can I add my company logo and branding to the checklist?

How do I complete the checklist once it is downloaded?

What types of safety checklist can I create?

We are building specialist checklists across a wide range of subjects and industries — fire safety, workplace inspections, equipment and machinery checks, site inductions, vehicle checks, PPE, first aid and more. Browse by category to find the right one.

How often should safety checklists be completed?

It depends on the activity and your risk assessment — many checks are daily, weekly or monthly, while others are done before each task or shift. Completed, dated checklists provide a useful record of your monitoring.

Are the checklists a substitute for a risk assessment?

No. A checklist is a monitoring and inspection tool that complements your risk assessments and method statements — it helps confirm that controls are in place and working. Use them alongside your risk assessments.
