    @stun9771 Před 3 lety +1

    All garages should get the same treatment...don’t about others, but never put a car in one, only ever used for ‘storage’...mind you, most garage nowadays, unless they’re double garages, don’t fit today’s cars...unless the doors slide open, and even then it’s a pretty tight fit. Though the plastic air bricks might be a bit low to the concrete block paving at the front, are they going to take out some of the blocks there?

    • @SteveAndAlexBuild
      @SteveAndAlexBuild  Před 3 lety

      Unfortunately the groundwork’s put the slab in level so it’s 75 mm too high at the front . We should have 150mm to damp .
      On the plus side the drive is at the top of a slope and if any water does ever get in the floor is suspended so there is a void underneath 👌🏼🧱👍🏽
