Default Fake Lawn on Wood Deck

Well, if all you want to do is eliminate the drip drip drip and you
wanted to do it really cheap, you could simply staple the thickest-mil
plastic sheeting you could find to the underside of the deck. That's
what the rednecks I actually used to live with did, and it seemed to
keep their hound dogs pretty dry. Just make sure you staple an extra
sheet over where seam edges meet to further contain any drip drip.

However, funny thing about those "going to ripped out in 5-10 years"
jobs. If you're not careful, they have an odd habit of stretching into
the 12th of Never and you just end up being the neighborhood redneck and
have everyone laughing at you behind their back. Just like at my mom's
house. Ugh.

I just want to be able to store things under the deck without the drip

I'm curious as to what you mean by "rainproofing under the deck." What
exactly do you want to accomplish and why do you feel the need to do
this?
