How does it work
Deck joist flashing tape is used to protect your deck’s substructure – commonly made with traditional lumber – from moisture. As an organic material, traditional wood is highly vulnerable to mold, mildew, and rot.
An effective and affordable way to protect your deck’s substructure is by using tape for your joists
When applied to deck joists, Protective Joist Tape creates a waterproof membrane that prevents wood rot and decay caused by the accumulation of moisture under the deck boards. Protective Joist Tape self-seals around screws and nails, blocking the primary pathway of water into lumber.
When placed between treated lumber and metal, Protective Joist Tape eliminates the potential for the corrosion of the metal surface.
A healthy substructure is essential for the overall health of your deck and benefits you by:
Saving you on future maintenance/replacement costs.
Increasing the anticipated life of your deck.
Improving your deck’s structural integrity so you can enjoy your deck, worry-free, year after year.
