Hello,
We have attached the garage directly to our house. It is built with masonry and the roof is concrete. The sealing between the garage and the house has already been done. There is now a kind of "black foil" on the garage and metal sheets are installed all around the outside. Near the house and garage is the water drainage. Gravel is supposed to be spread on the garage later.
We have often noticed that after rainfall the water always remains standing and does not drain off but only disappears through evaporation. The water also stands on the side facing away from the house (there is no drainage here).
A colleague said that you could pour screed on top and then create a slope towards the drainage. Does it work like this with the screed? Or are there some counterpoints (frost, etc.) that have to be considered?
Do you perhaps have another possibility of how to get a slope here? Do you have any other ideas on how this problem can be solved?
Thank you
regards xdiver
