Saw this thread and thought I would ask a few questions here. I am building a 10' straight island here in the Great White North, Canada. Firstly, I am building on a concrete pad and the pad slopes 3 1/2" in the 10' span and also slopes away from the house about an inch over a 3' span. So as you can tell I need to level the island before the build. I was looking at leveling feet, but seems to be a lot of work. So I think I will go with trex feet. How far apart should I place the feet on the track for proper support? (concrete counter & stacked stone). I was planning on building up the trex deck on the ends until I have it level. Would this be correct, any tips? Secondly, living here in Canada we can get some harsh winters and lots of snow. I want to put a bottom on the island, but I am concerned about the snow underneath the island and the cement/hardi wicking the moisture. Any ideas? Also I was thinking of using green e-board instead of hardi or cement board, what is best? Lastly, the island will be up against the house so I am not planning on putting any stacked stone on that side, just cement or green e-board, should I cover/waterproof it with something?
THX.
