I’m going to be putting a waterproof membrane on the outside of my ICF basement walls. I’m also putting on the DMX dimple mat my only concern is the dimple mat doesn’t reach to the top of the wall (bottom of house). I have 10’walls the mat is 8′ and my house will sit the minimum 8″ above grade. I’m putting the flashing over the top of the dimple board to prevent dirt and rocks from getting between the mat and the wall. With the membrane and the fact that its only going to be underground around 1-1.5′ be ok? I’m not to worried about it just looking for a 2nd opinion thanks.
