Hi everyone.

We are currently struggling with the following problem: We want to connect the garden to the house (above the drip edge - and no, we do not want to stay below it) to the plaster. This is basically not allowed because of the rising/potentially penetrating moisture.

It is recommended to install a grid or similar directly on the house (plaster). For this, you need a curbstone with a distance of 10-30 cm from the house (depending on the grid) as well as expensive brackets that support the construction. So, something nicer is different and it is not really cheap either, unless you opt for the cheapest, ugly solution, or it still costs quite a bit if you lay more than 50 meters of grid around the house and only then start with the garden, the terrace, or the driveway (paving).

I absolutely cannot imagine that I am the only homeowner with this problem, so I hope that a few enthusiastic builders here can give me great suggestions and ideas.

Please help me!!!! :)

There are reasons why manufacturers require a minimum distance of 15cm drip edge to the substrate. If moisture penetrates the wood, it rots very quickly. Most people also adhere to this and only make an effort for direct connection at the terrace. If you don't want to do that, you have to resort to the expensive special solutions.
