Water getting in under house slab

Posted 746 days ago

Hi I was wondering if anyone has any ideas about how to stop water getting under my slab causing my house to move and creating cracks. I was told to create a 900mm barrier of concrete around the edge of my house but I really don't like the thought of all that concrete. I had thought of perhaps putting in crushed sandstone compacting it with a whacker but i'm not sure how porous crushed sandstone is.

Any ideas would be welcome.
