since I rebuilt my front stairs I allowed for the finished floor hieght to be just a tad higher. I took up the old 3/8 ply and started laying some nice sanded 1/2" ply instead. I have some thick industrial vinyl and I am hoping I can successfully fit the vinyl and contact cement it down. I will make some cant strips so the edges will form a bit of a dish shape so hpefully it helps to keep it drieer below and hopefully there is enough slope to shed any water. It does have a roof so it is covered from most of the rain but I just wanted to clean it up.
right now I am a bit scared I will cut the vinyl wrong or that contact cement might actually do bad things to the vinyl I could do fiberglass like I did on my back porch instead bit it seemed like overkill for an area that is already kind of sheltered

Re windows: I ran out of useable material from the one source, so I had to rebuild my remaining two windows with other salvage. And sice I can't reproduce the blue patina, I had to paint these others. Here's the result..
(cheating)... Now I have to decide if Im going to strip the inside to bare wood and then let them all dry out a few days before oil and primer.
