Hello,
It would be really great if everyone here could just post one or a few pictures showing the current state of their house.
I'll start right away.
For renovations, it’s best to provide a comparison of before and after the remodeling.

Of course, it is possible to build houses with integrated gutters and to channel water behind the façade—this does not cause noise issues. For flat-roof buildings, this is a common standard. My parents’ house, built in 1970, has integrated gutters and downspouts despite having a pitched roof. It is quiet and problem-free.
I have been wondering for some time why downspouts are not hidden within the walls. That must be possible too. Does the insulation at that point become insufficient? Or is it not feasible due to construction reasons?

They’re currently available at a good price from Real. Reduced from 700 euros to 500 euros.
Just search for "bench petrol."
Also available in other colors and as a chair.
The quality is very, very good for the price! Great, thank you very much. It’s really nice.

During our renovation, I also found that some downpipes, especially for the toilets, are installed in the exterior wall.Likewise 😉 the construction industry sometimes cuts corners where it’s not visible. But we can learn from mistakes 😎
Schimi179112 Jan 2021 06:29I wouldn’t necessarily call it shoddy workmanship. Construction methods evolve over time. Let’s wait and see how building is done in 20 years.
Yesterday we installed everything and noticed the following.
I still need a dimmer module and another universal dimmer from Merten... :-(
Does anyone need 3x MEG 5171-0000 at a good price?!?
The laminate on the cover is very matte, but unfortunately it wasn’t glued properly and has some dimpling^^… so all three covers need to be replaced as well.
