Re-framing a deck, the Trex Protect installation video shows that you should put their butyl tape over the top of the joist, and also behind the hardware that fastens the joists to the beam.My question is how important do you think the tape behind the fasteners is? The tape on top is the most important as that's where gravity sucks the water into the board from the screw holes. But is it worth pulling out and re-fastening the joists if the tape was not put behind the fasteners the first time?https://ift.tt/2LQEkHq you! via /r/DIY https://ift.tt/2O9wXaM
