TOPIC: BEHIND THE BRICK - A rare glance

Re: BEHIND THE BRICK - A rare glance 14 years 1 month ago #36310

So why do you think that's so Carl?  Do these products simply fail to do what they've been advertised to do?  Or is it poor materials or design?  I know that Tyvek keeps water off sheeting, but it also seems to hold it for long periods of time behind siding, leading to decay of materials.

Vertical mulch aka OSB is also a problem.

Condensation being trapped in by taping the horizontal joint's is also a problem.

Flashing that does not exit the water to the exterior of the cladding is a big problem. aka window tape.

Reverse lapping of the flex wrap on the sides into window pans yet another problem.

There are a lot of houses nation wide rotting from the inside moisture trying to get out rather than the outside moisture trying to get in. When they have stucco on them it is always a stucco problem. Easy scape goat.

Amazing how people can do things so wrong. And when it is done, they will sell it and someone else will be stuck with all the problems.  :)

Agreed.
The house in pic must not be in an area requiring permits and inspections. So anything goes.
