Hello everyone,
I just have to try to clear up my question marks here and ask about your experiences. We are planning to build a house on an approximately 550m² plot (see sketch). The house should be positioned as far "down" as possible on the sketch (south/east) because we want to have as much distance/space as possible to the plot "above" (north/west). I hope I have expressed myself clearly.
Actually, I would like a double carport with a storage room behind it, but I think that takes up too much space (approx. 9m x 6m?). Therefore, the idea now is a single carport with a side storage room (blue sketch).
An alternative would be to build the carport directly onto the house and omit the house entrance canopy (also blue) and simply extend the carport up to that point so that it replaces this canopy of the house entrance. Do you understand what I mean? However, I am currently somehow resisting building a carport directly onto the house because it will not be built by the house construction company. I am somehow concerned about the sealing between carport and house and, if there is any damage there, who would be responsible for it, etc.
Maybe all of this is totally unproblematic? What experiences do you have with this?
Has anyone placed a carport somewhat similarly and integrated a house entrance canopy with it? What would you do?
Thanks and best regards!
