I am replacing a old deck and have had issues with the water not draining out from under it well after a rain Its clay type soil..It is 15 inches above ground and facing a direction where the corner is that gets NO sunlight ever ,so that complicates the dry out much after a rain.It is in the southeast where its humid already so that only adds to the issue.
What are the best methods to use to prevent the high moisture or at least improve soil/drainage ?
I thought maybe slope it with a french drain at end but not sure about the water that goes into clay below deck.
Any other info is appreciated
