Hi there books Kirk here with kirk giordano plastering, today what I'm going to do is correct
this the only difference is today what I've done with about the last 70 to 80 of them is sometimes we
repair the wood rot in this case the fella emailed me this last night and I'm located in Oakland area
area Halloween open Berkeley area we're actually in Pacifica he mailed me this photograph and I
thought well men that vent is through so picked up event this morning we're going to put a lugar
type vent this time as opposed to one of these guys this protects the mudsill the rain hits it
slides down where the range sometimes goes in those types of vents right there I brought some
four-by-fours two by sixes a few pieces because we're going to go ahead and tear this one out
and put a fresh one in that's seen better days anyway that's that's where we're going with this
particular project here not going to take much to tie it in on the sides and take them probably
longer to pull this guy out here and flash it and counter flash it and stick the new piece of
wood and then the deal all the cement work but that's my job for today unfortunately this mud
seals in great condition we just got rid of the vent took all the stucco off here so I'm gonna go
ahead and cut this two by six I'm looking at what they've done here and hole so every job folks do
some different things another we can't handle so I'm going to go ahead and cut this rotten piece
out and sister another piece in put my new vent in when we get to that stage and show you that
okay guys we're at a stage where got the new a new vent installed and we actually just took
out the rotten bit which was here but I had to go to the next joints here what you want to do
too is the flashing paper has got to go over this metal flashing that's that's real important and
then we're going to caulk under here where the door meets the paper finish paper in the sides
and caulk all around the door we're gonna get rid of do the stucco work I'm not going to tell any of
you folks how to do carpentry because that's not my field I'm licensed for stucco but I've done
many additions and I've done a couple homes myself but anytime where I come across a window or door
or walls that need a little bit of attention now we do handle it especially if we're already here
doing the stucco work okay guys last thing for the paper wire we take two layers and we slide
it under here and we go underneath the existing paper right over here I was able to slide my
paper all the way up to here that's good we want to do that and before I get ready to staple and
put some new wire here I'm gonna put some Sikaflex polyurethane talking just like it doing a couple
projects on this particular house this one here I'm showing it because of the vent in the wood
rot but all projects you have to do this to have to fuse it including the other side you don't
necessarily have to do the top because we have a Zee flashing nineteen which maps is a lot of
barium but since this here was deteriorated when I got here I'm going to also Sikaflex underneath
this guy here too so next thing is just the stucco work and we're gonna get out of here
okay guys we're all set with this minor wood rot it's the installation of the vent and you float
finish we've done work all around the house but I just figured out key on this one right
here because of the wood rot and the stucco then anyhow this is how we do it as stuck okay this
is Kirk with kirk Giordano Plastering, thank you folks for watching, and we'll see on the next one.
