Once moisture gets behind the exterior trim, it lingers in the sheathing long after the rain stops. The first sign is often a soft spot or peeling paint outside. Proper flashing prevents hidden damage before it spreads.
This work is crucial when replacing an exterior door or window. Older rough openings often have worn builder’s paper and dried sealant, even if the unit looks fine. Wrapping that transition properly protects the new unit before the siding goes back on.

Effective moisture protection
When moisture gets around window frames, it can cause damage that starts small but spreads quickly. Proper flashing directs water outward, protecting your sheathing and siding from rot before it starts.
We remove old, failing seals and install layered flashing that works directly with your home’s exterior cladding. This creates a watertight seal that can handle heavy, wind-driven rain without trapping condensation. For a closer look at the full process, see our window and door flashing in Vancouver.
Coquitlam gets a lot of rain against west-facing walls, making even small flashing gaps turn into leaks. Homes here need exterior details that can handle both heavy rain and ongoing dampness.
Many older split-level and ranch-style homes in Coquitlam were built before modern rainscreen standards, leaving wood-framed window openings at risk. Upgrading to multi-layer flashing and properly lapped housewrap prevents moisture from reaching the structural frame.
Window Flashing Techniques
In Coquitlam, we start window flashing by applying a liquid membrane to the rough sill and jambs of wood-framed openings. This seals the wood and creates a flexible base layer before we set the window unit.
Next, we install a sloped sill pan with a backdam. We then apply self-adhered flashing tape up the side jambs and across the top. The tape overlaps the pan at the bottom and goes under the housewrap at the top, creating a proper drainage path.
When working with existing stucco or siding, we use metal head flashing with end dams and a drip edge. This setup directs water away from the window head and onto the cladding, preventing it from running behind the trim.
A well-flashed window opening acts as a complete drainage system. The sill pan collects and drains any water that gets past the outer seal. Meanwhile, the head flashing and side tapes direct that water onto the weather-resistant barrier.
We ensure a continuous air barrier by sealing the inside of the rough opening. This stops warm, moist air from reaching the cold sheathing, which helps reduce condensation in the walls during Coquitlam’s wet winters.
We design fastening patterns to limit penetrations through the flashing. When fasteners are needed, we apply sealant under the fastener head or use gasketed screws to keep the envelope intact against wind-driven rain.
