Ground-level terrace, any experiences in planning the slope?

The prefabricated company dictates to us

what kind of company is that? and may I ask: why a drainage channel if everything is generously covered anyway?

yes, I think so too. Elk. they even depicted it in the workshop plan. here with a step down

Build a wooden terrace. Then you can confidently do without a gutter and slope.

Yep... this total sealing of properties with stone and paving is really not nice.

With heavy rain and wind from the "right" direction, slope and gutter won't help you much either. Especially since the water in the corner can't flow away to the side if the wind comes from ENE.

And the children can also put something round on the wooden terrace without everything rolling into the garden. In midsummer you can't walk barefoot when the sun is shining down. In winter... well, everyone has to decide that for themselves...

Don't build a wooden terrace, when I look at the wooden terraces in the neighborhood I'm glad not to have one...

With a little care, no problem.

Do you have one? If yes, please show a photo. I would still accept hollow chamber WPC decking, but wood needs to be sanded and oiled at some point, etc.
