December 21, 20187 yr Popular Post comment_170825 this is another yesteryear that was all face lift w/ rot at the brick elevation.. the T1-11 was poorly flashed letting water seep back into the rim joist and rotting it out.. the windows leaked so bad there was a perpetual breeze strong enough to blow out candles. here's the start... an over view of the finished project from the front... the triple window replacement w/ new headers and built mullions from Redwood... when the T1-11 was removed to fix the rot at the brick the bricks fell off of the house... the stays had rusted away... cleaned all of the bricks and put them back up... New OH doors w/ Redwood frames and Cedar facade... Revamped entrance... installed new door... overhauled backside w/ the same rot repair here too... also the new fascia and soffit.. gutters came later... cleaned up gable end w/ the swamp cooler relocated from a window to the gable and ducted through the house...

December 21, 20187 yr comment_170870 Great job Stick, Why do Gable ends sometimes get different materials or colors? How do you replace a rim joist? Diagram of proper flashing of a window or door? Was the T-11 siding directly over the studs or was their any vapor barrier under it (roof paper)? Was there interior damage? Were any joists or studs comprimized? Sorry but I like a full story and all the details. Report

December 21, 20187 yr Author comment_170893 Great job Stick, thanks.. Why do Gable ends sometimes get different materials or colors? aesthetics... How do you replace a rim joist? raise/support the house.. remove the siding/exterior facade.. remove the rim joist.. replace the rim joist... Diagram of proper flashing of a window or door? My bible... Architectural Graphic Standards, 12th Edition Many to choose from... Diagrams of proper flashing of windows and doors? Was the T-11 siding directly over the studs or was their any vapor barrier under it (roof paper)? Studs/Homosote/T1-11.. Was there interior damage? of course... Were any joists or studs compromised? a few... a double rim pretty much saved the day... Sorry but I like a full story and all the details. hnnnnnnn... Window-and-Door-Flashing code.pdf Report
