Those who want the foundation of his house to serve for more than one decade, you need to make a blind area around the house. Thanks to her, moisture will not penetrate the basement. The blind area itself is a kind of coating that will have the appearance of a small path and be located directly near the house itself. To create a blind area, you will need to dig a recess of 20-30 centimeters near the house itself. If various roots come across during such work, then they should be disposed of. Then the resulting grooves are covered with gravel or other materials and well tamped. After that, this should be poured all with a cement mortar.
In order for the blind area to look beautifully, it will be possible to use some decor elements, for example, pave the blind area with cobblestones. To do this, you will need to take small cobblers (4-8 centimeters high). After that, such cobblestones will need to be drowned in the underlying layer and well compacted. This will allow for a long time to serve blindages, and at the same time it will have a beautiful view.
It will also be possible to use a waterproof blind area, especially in those areas where there is always increased humidity.
