The best way to achieve success is to plan for it. When it comes to window & door weatherization, proper flashing design and technique are typically the difference between success and failure.
By allowing us to assist you in the design and implementation of your flashing systems, you can avoid the headaches and costly litigation that can result from improper installation. We can even assist in the installation of a unit onsite and field test it. Once it is field tested, it can then be approved and used as a jobsite mock-up. The field installers can even observe the whole process to better understand the concepts in use.
In California, the use of Membrane Drainage Systems & Weather Resistant Barriers in challenging designs have pushed the need for better installation materials and application methods. Variations of recessed fenestration details have created a need for advanced systems and training. Coupled with a plethora of new materials becoming available, builders have been somewhat overwhelmed with figuring out what works and what doesn't.
Questions on material compatibility and proper usage have been an enigma of sorts and have unfortunately resulted in improper usage, leaks and litigation. Let Santa Barbara Window Forensics guide you through the maze.
