i am interested in building a new deck. this deck is going to be above a room built out of cinder block. i want the deck to have tongue and groove flooring. how do i prevent any water from getting into the room below? i am worried that if i nail my t&g to a sub floor that has a water proof membrane that my nails will ruin the membrane. how much pitch should it have?
