Use of the protective joist strip for terrace

Laying a wooden terrace on a joist pedestal requires a few precautions to ensure that it is durable over time. Once the pedestals have been placed on the ground and the joists have been fixed to the pedestals, you will need to protect the joists of your terrace. To do this, you should have a protective strip for the joists to protect them from moisture and water run-off.

Its application is very simple: make sure your joists are dry and clean before applying the protective strip. Once this is done, all you have to do is glue this tear-proof strip to the joists that make up the structure of your wood or composite terrace.

The protective strip ensures that the structure of your wood terrace is watertight. By applying the protective strip, you will increase the life span of your terrace.
