Hi,
I feel I should know the answer to this however I don’t do will ask someone more knowledgeable
I’ve dug my foundations out for a new porch - brick- which I’ve dug 1 metre down and 600 wide , we live in a very clay and high water tsble area
I was going to trench fill it with concrete and build up from there,
I’m just not sure how high I should fill the footings with concreted .
The current house and porch has three courses under ground but only sits on a slab may 6 inches .
I just don’t feel matching a 6 inch slab is the right call
Thanks
Jake
