Garage base draws water - defect?

Hello everyone,
I have a question. The base of my garage draws in water when it rains. (See picture)
Is this a defect or normal? Can the facade be damaged as a result?
I only have this on the west side. Here, the paving lies directly against it.
On the south side with a direct gravel strip, there is nothing. There is also no problem on the house itself.

Attached is the image.

The base waterproofing is probably missing there, which is compensated by the gravel on the other sides. Eventually, the plaster will crack there.

Hello!

According to the photo, this is clearly a construction defect.
And not normal.

As Sebastian wrote, the base sealing is missing or it is faulty / improperly made / executed.

Standing water apparently cannot infiltrate. It then enters the facade / masonry, and through capillary action the water is drawn upwards.

The facade will definitely be damaged. The masonry later as well. 100%.

Please contact the builder. In my opinion, there is an urgent need for action in the short term to avoid further damage.

That doesn't sound good. I found another picture. Is this dark coating meant by sealing?

Hi Florian,

that cannot be assessed – from the picture I cannot tell what was used there.

The matter must be professionally examined on site.
The fact is that water is rising in the wall across almost the entire width. That can have many causes.

No panic now – winter is over, frost damage will no longer occur.

Best regards
Thorsten
