ᐅ Optimal finished floor height relative to the street level

Created on: 29 Sep 2017 19:45

Hi,

We received our building permit / planning permission two weeks ago. It includes a recommendation to raise the house by an additional 25 cm (10 inches), but this is only a suggestion. However, it is a bit unsettling. Currently, the plan is for the finished floor level to be 15 cm (6 inches) higher than the street level. I actually thought this would be enough. The street is about 10 m (33 feet) away and slopes down towards the opposite side of the street.

What do you think about this?

Hmm, I still can't quite imagine it.
I would agree to go 10cm (5 inches) higher.

Why not draw it out more precisely on graph paper? In my opinion, the finished floor level of your house should be at street level and slightly higher than the city’s green strip.

Okay, the finished floor level is actually 17cm (7 inches) higher than the street and just under 35cm (14 inches) higher than the city’s green strip.
Is my sketch really that unclear?

Sorry. I didn’t look carefully enough.
