Why flashing?

[PEG688]

  This isn't so bad , soffit below door bay,

 

Door jamb , 2nd floor un covered deck,

 

 

 

 

Not a good photo but that's the ladder on the deck below  

 

Path / walkway all the stuff must go up and down on , steeper than it look's .

 Who needs a stinkin stair master

 

 

 Joist and beams in soffit from below  

  Many issue's here , door jambs rotted, under door flashing to small , corners not flashed , typar not wrapped at corners.

Radiant floor heat in lightwieght concrete, 3/4 T&G maple floors .

Very hard repair    Oh well it's a livin , might kill me but in the mean time it puts beans on the table .

 Flash it , wrap it , keep it painted , Jambsills , etc.

  Wow....that is scary.  My weekness is flashing.  I put bays in my house, even extending the floor out.(3 so far, I love them).   I suck at bending and flashing....and of course I have a leak on one I can't find.  That was a previous install of mine, with 3/4" plywood seat board (prior to my floor bump out style ) and some of the framing was rotten and decomposing.  It still leaks a little....   What to flash and how could be a book me thinks.......  :-/

Here's a few more reasons for proper flashing detail , stay calm Glenn  

 Different house same sort of issue's,  mostly.  About 8 year old remodel

 

Deck above not flashed at all , just caulked  

 

Concrete poured right up to sheathing , bad idea , plywood / OSB more so is like a sponge if it can it will lap up the water.

 

 Should be at least 12 % or below , average around here is 10% moisture content exterior of house , 8% or lower indoors , generally varies a bit with season.

 

 Corner brd valley / cricket interection hard to defend / flash.



Add a gutter at the end and a trim  brd the below that is bass acwards leading water in , again only caulked and you get ,



Ahhh Issues  

 

Remodeler tool for pulling nails out from under , what ever it's under

 

 I'm totally not sold on Typar this corner is like old blue jeans , it's 8 years old , maybe they (former remodeler left it exposed for to long , don't know . What I do know is it is worthless at this point  

 

 My cricket to fix the issues in this area , other things like no metal flashing at window and door heads , I'll address when and where I can .

 To repeat myself, [highlight]CAULKING IS NOT FLASHING[/highlight] , don't use it as such .  

 We now return you to Glenn doing what Glenn does ,  

 

 Heee heeee he , jees I crack me up

It's getting hot here this summer -- think I'll have to lose the trench coat.  

I have the shingle remover/remodeling nail puller tool.  I bought it to use as a peeling spud for taking the bark off of logs.

Hey - a 9 is not too bad. :-/

 You don't find forgiveness in church.   But I get his meaning
