Stuccoman, Thanks for the P.M. Looks like you can keep your teeth. I found some old construction pictures. If only I knew then [:-censore. So much more to learn about testing and codes. I've been talking to some brick experts and they are asking for the plans for our house. Was the builder supposed to give me a set? Are they required to give me a set now?

Thanks I needthem to eat! Can you zoom in on you windows to see the corners they should have peel and stick tabs on them to help keep the water out!! Pella nail fins have a void at the corners let alone te sides are not flashed with there wonder flashing or so it appears. My understanding is the tyvek should not come in contact with masonry or it is prone to failure!!! Dont get me wrong tyvek will hold water out and I know that for a fact because I have seen it hold water in. They just have some installation flaws and will not listen to anybody that trys to tell them that! In the kansas city metro anyway. And then the window companys are the same way.
