Re: How to resolve a paving level problem 29Apr 26, 2014 5:17 pm Hi mcgilla, Any and all suggestions are more than welcome. Lowering the stepdown from the door to the concrete is certainly on the cards and is something I have been discussing with concreters and plumbers. The difficulties with that solution are that taking the paving down to the right level for the org will mean a small retaining wall to contain the land on the easement at the back. There will also be a slope up or a step up on the south side to the land level there. This will create a container for water to pond in unless we put in drainage. I'm happy to put in drainage but this will inevitably mean that in the (unlikely) event of a sewage surcharge the surcharge will find its way into the stormwater drain. I don't know if this is legal or not but is the best solution I've got at the moment. isn't a garage level with the rest of the house a given? pretty sure they 'came around' long time ago. if you have a flat block, the garage is usually level with the rest… 1 17511 they can, it's a fairly standard solution when the slab isn't recessed. the falls need to be in the main floor, if it hasn't been done then you need to ask them to redo… 4 6579 interesting situation what happened after builder issued final invoice? did you list as defect or not does the building surveyor have any responsibility? ie. issuing… 13 46866 |
