Window flashing required?
Hi all,
I’m in a bit of a pickle. We are renovating our kitchen and we are replacing our window and patio door. We had a family member who runs a window business do the work for us. they installed both.
Our contractor saw the work and indicated they did not put any tyvek and tape flashing. When he asked them about it they said that the foam was enough and not to worry. Now we are hesitant…more research indicates flashing is required. Our contractor will put tyvek on the outside but wondering your thoughts on the tape flashing?
We would need to bring it up and it might be an awkward convo but at the end of the day we are here to prevent future problems.
Thank you!
