Heelo guys kirk and jason here with kirk giordano plastering, today what I want to show you guys is
how to tie in as best as possible with laughs now this is stud house when I was back Union
30 years ago I remember doing some of these houses here in alameda bay farm island when
you have something like this ok we have i just came up here for the first time to check it out
to see what they've left me and these guys are good these are 30-year guys who broke this out
and i thought let me come take a look at see if i can waterproof it now they know I told them enough
times if you want to guarantee by me you take it to the very top because that i can guarantee
if i'm trying to trying to guarantee the studs where there's just paper well i can't guarantee
that but here is what I've just now saw when I come up here alright let me get rid of this
it's a hot day and when you're working on a comp roof oh we're going to put a tarp here because
we're going to break out some more I come up and I told the fellow gee there's nothing here there's
a there's the wood right here that the window rest on and the studs but there's nothing here
so there's no way i can guarantee this window but we're prepared to do today is we're going to take
this edge down here and break it out with our tools here and yank this piece off and the same
there notice down there it looks pretty good with what they've got they got the diverter down there
it's it all looks looks kind of groovy but down here down here where we have all this we've got
a we got to do something a wee bit better here ah i mean i could work with some of this and I
show you folks this because guys like me we can we're only as good as what we have to work with
if we have no paper and i have seen houses with no paper we we have to improvise we have to come
up with a solution in order to get everything watertight so i just talked with the contrac
osagie I'll tell you what I'll do is I'll break this out at no cost and just so that window we
won't have it compromised as far as everything else well it's your choice you go to the top and
I guarantee it or I do the best I can like anybody else would and go underneath here where those
studs it's a nightmare of a job but somebody's got to do it anyway we're going to show you how
to do that all right guys let me show you what we've uncovered here well it's good thing they
had this one paper underneath this window because the top layer was over the flange it was over it
here it was over here and it was kind of rotten so I had showed the contractor what now what we
do is okay we're countering his flashing I've already stapled this one drip screed on here
because we've got to have a drift screen okay now that I got that on what I'm prepared to do is I
pulled all the screws out of this window now what I'm going to do is watertight it Shay dan and I
are going to install the paper and I'm going to go underneath the flange just a little bit i'll
show you why i go under the flange a little bit guys oh ok we go like like so then we cut this
There's our screen for that, and then we're going to go ahead and do the other side to grab that
side, damn, please, and let's get a clean side. We're going to overlap this one here just right
up on this stud itself. I'll come up my way all right through there okay coming down low
bed right about this a little bit further we got to slide our new paper under there, okay then we
we'd cut it with our knife all right let me get this side over here yep we're going
to pay for that corner anyway, but for the sake of explanation, I'll show you, folks,
what we're planning on doing here we're going to take this boy stop and what we've already done
is we've already taken all the staples are screws out of this window, and we're just going to fish
this guy in here we want to go all the way up until it stops just like that now windows do
have a tendency to leak dang it give myself some new staples in this gun you fish that guy under
the back and forth just fish it in there until it hits the cell and get some staples in this
gun right here fellas ok now what chef I always got to stay clear of these guns guys let me see
Ok, now I want to overlap this one. We overlap it; actually, we overlap it a bit more than that.
Okay yeah we go under and if it won't go under guys take your hammer and just tap it a little
bit but not too much or a catspaw because this frame real cracking that glass will break and
yes I'm broken a couple okay there we go there we go all right we're all the way under there
we're gonna put a couple more hammer attack and it is all about a hundred degrees up here knife
please and the same applies would take this knife and cut the screen out screeding out
there screeding out here and then when we're done with this I still got to put another
piece of paper all the way under here and over to here and we're going to double lap this here
we're going to do the same with that side there now we're going to wire as usual when you have
a window guys it's just as easy to take it to the top of a window not so easy to take it to
the top of a wall but that's where we're going with this anyhow guys my name is Kirk I'm with
Kirk giordano plastering as usual we thank you for watching and we will see you guys on the next one.
