The neighbor’s base is on the south side; we will place our carport on the north side like everyone else on the street. I would love to leave out the L-stones, but my husband is of the opinion that if we don’t want steps from the carport to the house, a level must be created, which has to be supported about 30 cm high with L-stones. Maybe I’ll open a separate thread for that in another subforum. Maybe there are alternatives to the L-stones that we haven’t thought of. Thanks also for the tip about leaving out the post. Do you think we can leave out more posts? However, we want to green the carport roof.

What does your planner say about it? Did you mention the recommendations to set the house a bit lower?

I don’t get it. The pictures show the property boundary to the south in my opinion. Only underpinning the neighbor’s property would make sense there, since it is higher. If you plan something like that, please make a detailed plan first and then calculate the costs. Then you’d quickly rethink such nonsense.

To the north, it’s probably just a lawn edging and garden fence? Please upload pictures of the situation in the north and south.

Level the plot to the north so that paving is done up to the lawn edging. Never put in an L-shaped stone. Unless you cannot manage 5 m with a slight slope when walking to the entrance. In my opinion, that even works without steps.

I am also confused: what does an underground small base on the other side of the property about 15m away have to do with the height situation of the carport/house entrance? If anything, the carport should be set a bit higher in the north to reach the house entrance level. But I don't see that either, because on the one hand you urgently need to check the height of the house already mentioned in the parallel thread (is it really supposed to be that much higher than street level?). On the other hand, this results in a height difference from the house entrance to the street or carport that can very, very likely be balanced better and more cheaply (and aesthetically also should be!).

Our house (also timber frame) is 70 cm below street level, and then it slopes down relatively steeply. Nevertheless, we have a threshold-free entrance by installing the access path with a gradient. To match this with the carport, we have a 20 cm slope inside the carport and a further 50 cm drop to the storage room. All of this is easy to walk on, requires no steps or embankments, and looks great:

Regarding the carport posts, you can see how we solved it: the rear post was moved forward by 1m to reduce the span and additional head braces (these are the diagonal struts pointing upwards) really pleased the structural engineer :) We are in a proper snow load zone and will extensively green the roof in spring (about 70 kg/sqm load). We could have also made the long purlin 4 cm thicker and then would have had a 140 kg load... unfortunately I missed that :rolleyes:

How does the neighbor's paved path drain? It’s not like the water has been flowing to your place for 15 years and now with heavy rain you have cubic meters of water on top of that. Our edge is higher than the paving and slopes away from the neighbor. Take a look during heavy rain, where the water is coming from and where it goes.

Men sometimes think very Minecraft-like in right angles. A 30cm height difference can often be very easily compensated organically with a slightly sloped surface instead of a step - it often even looks better.

The self-baked problems still probably taste the best. Your south neighbor's north is your south. Where his carport casts a shadow, your car will also not get too hot from the south. Then the carport is also positioned differently relative to the front door, which you can conveniently reach without steps via a curved path.

Uh, yes, and : could at least one of you please get a profile picture? - the two sky-blue H’s are driving me crazy.
