Hi,
I've had a patio built by a professional, and the fall level is 1:180 approx away from the house.
This is far less than what I've discovered is the recommended fall level of 1:80
We tested the drainage with a hose, and it does drain, but pools of water sit on the lower half of the slabs.
The pointing has not been done yet so the drainage may be better when it's done - or is this wishful thinking?
Will this fall be sufficient to protect the house, or should we get it redone?
TIA,
Zebs
