FAST – EFFECTIVE – PROTECTIVE
Essential for protecting wooden substructures in variable climates, preserving the integrity of your build.
Built for Projects That Need Longevity Without the Hassle
TuffTape is the smart way to protect your deck or outdoor structure from the elements. Acting as a durable, waterproof barrier, it shields joists and substructures from moisture, salts, and temperature extremes that cause wood to rot, warp, or decay. Quick to apply and built to last, TuffTape extends the life of your project while reducing the need for ongoing maintenance, making it a simple step that delivers long-term peace of mind.
Water Repellant
Creates a waterproof barrier that prevents moisture from penetrating the wood, protecting joists from rot and decay.
Increases Ventillation
Promotes airflow around joists to reduce trapped moisture and keep timber dry and stable.
Faster Installation
Peel, stick, and press — TuffTape goes on quickly and easily, saving time on every project.
Non-Slip Grip Design
Textured surface adds extra grip, keeping joists and boards securely in place during installation.
Reduced Maintenance
Protects wood from early damage, minimizing repairs and extending the life of your structure.
Recycled Materials
Made from recycled materials, TuffTape delivers lasting protection while reducing environmental impact.
How TuffTape Keeps Wood Stronger for Longer
Moisture, salts, and extreme temperatures are the biggest threats to wooden substructures. Over time, they cause rot, warping, and decay that shorten the life of decks, patio covers, and docks. TuffTape creates a tough, water-repellent barrier that seals joists against damage while still allowing airflow. By keeping wood drier and more stable, it helps protect your build from the costly effects of exposure.
Unlike paints or sealants that wear away, TuffTape bonds directly to the joist for long-lasting defense. Its quick peel-and-stick application makes it simple to use, while recycled materials add an eco-friendly edge. Strong enough for coastal conditions yet easy enough for any project, TuffTape extends the life of lumber and reduces ongoing maintenance — making joist protection a smart standard step, not an afterthought.
