Yes exactly, Enkopur liquid plastic. I took a few photos, as well as a before-and-after sketch. Hopefully this clears up all uncertainties now.
South entrance: The two elements on the right can be opened, on the left is fixed glazing. I want to extend the wall all the way to the house wall, with a small staircase in between.
South side overview: Between the wall and the house will be the dry beds.
On the east side (in the last picture around the corner at the back) the bed continues and ends somewhere just before the front door.
Terrace: will be roofed from the corner of the house to approximately the kitchen window.
And for those who don’t want to piece this together mentally, here is the plan.
The sketch is: On the front edge of the floor slab and in front of the first row of stones there is XPS. The window sits on the floor slab. In front of the window there should be a stone slab as flush as possible, with a piece of XPS underneath to adjust the height. In front of that will be paving, but certainly not 15 cm lower. Because of the roofing, permeable paving, and the raised terrace compared to the surrounding terrain, this also works without a gutter. The slab for the exit should be as high as possible, i.e. up to the roller shutter rail. That would leave 13 cm space for the entire construction.
What is unclear to me now is the following:
- Is it better for a layperson to do something like this with foam or with mortar?
- Is the build-up height sensible or is 1 cm to tight for foaming? (Actually even somewhat less, since there still has to be a slight slope forward.) If that is too tight, I would use 6 cm XPS and then about 2 cm of foaming/mortar each between the floor slab and XPS and between the XPS and stone slab.
The question about polishing has already been answered; I would now choose something flamed and brushed.
I am a landscaper; I can ask the plasterer what price he would charge for installing it. Although none of this sounded too complicated.
