I have a problem with rot on my foundation on one side where the ground level is too close to the top of the foundation. My plan is to replace the sill and that does not bother me. What I would like to do is raise the ground level along side the foundation but to do that it would put the level above the foundation. My question is: Is there a product to use to replace the lower part of the sheathing so I can back fill higher to increase run off away from the foundation ? I thought of cement board but as far as I can find out it doesn't take kindly to repeated freezing and thawing. Anyone have any experience with a material that would do the job?
