I am in the precess of building some decking in our back garden that runs the width of the house. Along the wall of the house is a series of air bricks.
The final height of the deck boards will be above these airbricks, but they will remain unblocked and uncovered in the void beneath the deck boards, and there is enough room below the beck boards and joists etc to get a good airflow.
On this basis, I'm not too worried that the airbricks are below the deck board level, but my wife is convinced that they will then be as good as covered, and that we'll get damp, the house will fall down and the universe will come to an end.
Does anyone have an opinion on this??
Thanks
Chris
