Refinement suburban area (entry and building drainage systems)

Our history for improving family plot began in October of this year. Then we purchased the land in a holiday village and started to work. The first thing we decided to do was laying the drainage ditch in front of the site, allowing us after make her a comfortable entry to the car. To begin with, we had to choose the material for drainage to withstand heavy loads. We opted for the asbestos-cement pipe.

After that, the needed sand. We booked it and wait for delivery. Soon on our site already sported a heap of dry sand.

Our family decided to do the driveway with his hands. To do this, we drained the ditch. We removed the upper layer of soil covered with sand bottom, placing a sandy base. Then my family and I have established in the gutter pipe and filled it with sand, which was evenly distributed and compacted. We did drain carefully, because they feared damage to the natural flow of rainwater, subsoil water.

After that, the husband insisted that we have completed the arrangement of the driveway concreting stops on the sides. He reasonably explained to us that in this way the entry will not disperse in hand when traveling by car it. To this end, we as a family have erected formwork made of wooden planks and poured into her concrete solution. A week later, when it is dry, we have removed the formwork. Thus we now have more piers and retaining.

Following this we ordered a gravel chippings to cover their upper layer of our driveway.

Is October comes to an end, and our family has done a lot of work on arrangement of the suburban area. We've got not only a reliable entrance for the car, but also an effective drainage system for the site area, which will divert rainwater. I am sure that our entry will be available at any time of year, regardless of the weather. They worked together in community, in fact, in some moments, we become more aware of each other. So we can safely say that this building, plus everything only strengthen our family ties.
