ECPI Thru-wall flashing
We recently completed a Case Study for a project we completed at ECPI.
Project: ECPI
Location: Virginia Beach, VA
Completed: February 2013
Challenge
- Lintel corrosion
- Failed/missing window gaskets & sealants
- Failed metal to metal flashing joints
- Failed Nervastral/incorrectly installed waterproofing
- Poor cavity drainage/thru-wall water damage
Solution:
Masonry was removed at the top of the window system allowing for remedial actions to take place. All steel lintels were restored and given a protective coating to ensure years of worry free use. Proper thru wall drainage systems were designed & installed to resolve water infiltration problems. All window system leaks were resolved by the use custom silicone boots and new bridge tape joints that would accommodate extreme conditions. Finally a high performance sealant was used replacing defective caulk joints and completing a successful remediation.
