Review on Imus Seal Butyl Joist Tape: Ultimate Waterproofing Solution for Flashing Deck Joists and Beams (1-5/8” x 50’) by Stephen Pendergrass

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Solid Product - Butyl Tape

So I used it for my first deck project in a long time. I've seen a lot of people use them and I want to try it. It seems that for a few dollars, the lifespan should be extended. Of course, I can't judge whether that worked. But here's what I think... It wasn't difficult to install. Very sticky so cloth gloves helped. Two people really speed things up. We have folded all of our straps as recommended by Zipper, but this manufacturer does not offer this. If you mess it up, you can retract and fix it. We used it in very hot weather so I think it made installation easier. with installation or paper. The large roll had problems with the backing paper. I like to see black in the gaps between the bars. Also, protecting the structure seems like a good idea. I would give a good rating but can't give 4 or 5 stars because at the end you want to rate performance as well.
