Since it would be too disruptive for the house construction pictures thread, I’m opening a separate thread now.
I have some concerns about the height difference to the neighbor on the right. There is generally a slight slope. For us, it’s about 1 meter (3 feet) from the right to the left side of the property.
On our right side, there will be a prefabricated garage placed directly at the property line, which will be delivered fully plastered. Our construction company advised us to use waterproofing slurry (damp-proof coating) in combination with it.
On the left side, we have a 3 meter (10 feet) gap to the neighbor, and they also have the same distance. We are both seriously considering how to properly compensate for the height difference [emoji848]. Actually, we wanted to look into leveling our plot at the same time.
Does anyone have ideas or tips?
Our zoning plan states only:
"Enclosures must be designed so that the movement of small animals up to hedgehog size is not obstructed (wooden fences, wide-mesh wire fences). Walls and wall plinths are not permitted. In the front garden zone, enclosures are prohibited at distances from the building boundary to the public traffic area up to depths of 5.0 or 3.0 meters (16 or 10 feet)."

The neighbor is the one with the parking spaces right in front, and you are the ones at 175,955,
does that correspond here to the left side of the plan?

does that mean on the left side according to this plan?Sorry, yes. It’s confusing when I say right because I’m viewing it from the perspective of the street [emoji85][emoji23] Yes, we are in the middle at 175.955.
The neighbor has the brick house (on the right in the photo)?
Your garage is not connected to the house, I assume?
It might also be helpful to have the "absolute" height measurements of the top edge of the finished ground floor slab from both you and the neighbor.

It might also be helpful to have the exact elevation data of the finished floor level on the ground floor for both your property and the neighbor’s.I don’t know the neighbor’s data. I only have our plans. Their level is definitely higher. That doesn’t bother me.I can live well with the height difference; I’m more thinking about the best way to manage and visually integrate the height difference on the left side of the plan.
At the same time, we’re discussing with the neighbors on the right side of the plan what options we have to get the plots reasonably even, without having huge differences.
Around the house we also have to be level, since all the light wells are set to the same height.

The idea behind my question was/is to determine what the target reference point should be, for example, if you wanted to find a slope with an even gradient between the two houses. Since both buildings are already constructed or underway, the ground floor slabs have become established reference levels and have effectively replaced the previous terrain surface levels in terms of validity and relevance.
