Hello Jeff,
I spoke with the Pella rep. She said that the master bedroom window should have come with a stop block, and
she will have the Pella service dept mail me a stop block to install in that window. It will probably be a week or
so before it arrives. I will install it as soon as I have it.
I also spoke with my lead carpenter who did the replacement of those windows. He said the sheeting under the
window was soft and that is why the stucco was removed. He said he had the inspector out at that point.
Under the stucco was a layer of felt paper then OSB sheeting, then a layer of Tyvek between the sheeting and
the wall studs /framing lumber. This can be seen in the pictures. He said the Tyvek under the sheeting is what
protected the framing members. The framing lumber was fine. A little tea stained but solid with no rot. As
you can see from the second picture the framing lumber is intact. He said the inspector asked him to call the
inspector back if there was water damage down at the rim joist. He said there was no water damage to the rim
or other framing and that is why the inspectors were not called back while it was open.
He did have these pictures of removal of the rotten sheeting and he sent them to me. However the pictures of
the new sheeting are on film because his memory card was full, and I am still looking for these pictures. If and
when I find them I will forward them to you. I assure you that after we removed the stucco if there would have
been a need to have dug deeper we would have.
Thanks,
Jason Mahowald
