Outdoor benches - aluminum or as a roll layer of facing stones

Just measured the anchors are 20 cm

Hello dear people!

I'm digging up the old thread again because we have the same question.
Roll roofing or aluminum benches!?

In principle, I would choose roll roofing for aesthetic reasons.
Apart from the additional costs (20 EUR/m), I read in this context that it is very often not executed 100% correctly and water ingress leads to damage...

Technical execution is probably easier and better achievable with aluminum (water tightness), but I somehow can't really get used to the look :(

Hm. Are there any other pros and cons? :)

Many thanks and best regards

You can't really speculate about aesthetics without having your house in front of you. In my opinion, rolled layer clearly requires a trained bricklayer rather than a bricklaying assistant. Aluminum always fits; you don't have to use it pure brushed.

You can't speculate visually about that without having your house in mind. In my opinion, a rolling layer clearly requires a trained bricklayer rather than a bricklaying assistant. Aluminum always fits, you just don't have to take it in pure brushed finish.

Thanks for your opinion! I myself only have my house in mind on the drawing, so it's hard for me to speculate as well ;) In a few weeks I hopefully will know/see more and will have to make a decision. Ultimately probably based on gut feeling and depending on the color combination (windows/bricks) or the cost difference.

I myself only have my house in mind from the drawing,

I don't

, therefore I also find speculation difficult

Tell me where it can be seen ;-)

:) I speculate that one cannot make such a decision well based on drawings, right? At least I can't manage it :)
