Hey,

currently it looks like in the picture. Now I would like to finish the splash guard.

Vertically down the house wall, there will be a dimpled membrane, which will basically stand in front of the already laid membrane.
Here, I would not fill everything with the nice stones, but at the bottom a layer with which material? And then a fleece on top of that and then the nice stones. So that I don’t have the nice stones in the invisible area.

Does this also work with the water drainage, since there is quite a lot of concrete on the inside?

Is there anyone who could give me tips on this? Or which color would be good for the nice stones on top?

Thanks!

That's how I did it too, although you already have a lot of surface inside sealed with concrete. For filling at the bottom, it's best to use material that is nicely permeable to water. I used gravel because I already had some left over. For visible stones, you can use whatever you like and that fits well with the rest (basalt gravel, granite gravel, river pebbles, etc.). It is also important that your base plaster in that area is treated waterproof, e.g. Sockeldicht etc., otherwise you will get efflorescence at the transition at the top (which has already happened to you as it looks in the picture).

There is not much drainage there, it's almost all filled with concrete :O

yes, the gray at the bottom is the sealing slurry. Gravel as the lower layer, ok. Would crushed stone also work? There is some coming these days as fill from the current parking spot, so I can take some from there.

Do you have to pay attention to anything regarding the step, or can it be executed the same way, i.e. the substructure and then gravel and paving on top?

I can imagine stones like those shown in the picture.

Please put a drainage pipe in there, otherwise you have built a fine moat, best to connect it to the gutter.

Once that's done, get some gravel, the cheap kind you can find, then tile on top and the beautiful granite on top of that.

See the answer from - where exactly is it planned for the water that is in there once to flow to? I only see concrete there right now...
