Did pressure treated get worse? I built my deck 30 years ago and tape on the joist was unheard of and I have zero rot. 🤷♂️

J-Bear :
you should have an overhang on the decking whether it is end grain or picture framed and that overhang creates a roof for the fascia so water doesn't get between the fascia and the wood

Way over thinking a deck build these days, that tape is such a gimmick . If you wanna use it fine by me, I’m not judging a persons work. Decks lasted for years before. Now this

Tape traps water and if you are using pressure treated lumber who cares if it gets wet.

Keeping your trim board lower definitely looks like an amateur did the work

What is up with the tape? All the sudden everyone is using tape.

That’s a waste of time in the first decking board would bridge that gap and nothing would go into it. You’re overthinking it wasting money.

This product is for ships , steel , wood and what not... your steel won't rust and wood won't rot , also good for your deck posts , bugs leave it alone , set the posts in concrete and you have 35 year fun

How do you feel about taping the face of the rim joist before installing fascia

Your work is far better than others. How did you attach the blocking thats about 10 inches in from the fascia? I can't see any fasteners toenailed?

I mean it all sounds good. It looks good but damn that's a hefty price tag.

Build a deck 36 years ago with untreated lumber and coated everything with bitumen and it's still going strong
