| Improper Deck Flashing Problem | | 2008-08-14 21:05:55 | | Today's post comes from a reader who asked me to look at a deck flashing problem that he had. The email stated: I’m wondering if you can help me with a problem I am having repairing or replacing the flashing for a replacement deck attached to a stucco house. The original flashing was poorly installed by the builder and over the years has led to wood rot which attracted carpenter ants. The ledger board has been removed and the affected rim boards replaced, but I’m now left with a flashing which needs to be corrected.The sketch was provided by the homeowner and it shows how the existing deck was flashed.
