Hello dear forum,
the moisture from the night is moving from the sand into the plaster (there is insulation behind the plaster). This is how it looks every morning. During the day, it usually dries completely again.
Should the company have installed some kind of separation between the house and the paving?
Should I sweep out the sand again? Can the insulation be damaged? Either by the moisture or possibly later by frost?
Would it help to remove as much sand as possible and replace it with gravel or something similar?
I hope someone here can help me.
Best regards
