Buck,I am not Carl,but could you explain why number 3 would not work?
No gap but I am thinking if that makeshift flashing goes up and behind that it might work.

Please correct my thinking.

Bob,

I always find water leaks around this type of flashing and stucco. What do you think about the flashing at the stone. It is under the roof overhang, might never leak.

Thanks!!

[Bob Elliott]

My first thought on that is not enough gap and not a good kickout.
Those stones do not look very secured either.

When the front drip of the flashing is notched so is the back or it still would not make the radius.

Thanks Buck

They are toooooooooo tight to call the heating and cooling co. to make to right.

In the 4th picture the trim and the window is improperly installed.

[Carl A. Brown]

that is Lick and Stick / faux stone built to leak before the stucco/faux stone company ever got to the job, let alone what they probably did while there.

[Carl A. Brown]

Why bother doing it Right when doing it Wrong pays the same?

Examples

And most people have no clue what they are really getting into.

What about that flashing over the arched window in #3 Carl?

[Carl A. Brown]

The window is not flashed but the trim is, and that is another reason for water entering.

[Bob Elliott]

Gotcha
Thanks Carl.

At the sill down and out over the cladding.
At the head of the windows out over the window, and out to the outside of the vertical trim.
At the head trim.

IMO this is what they need and not just stucco!

And backer rod and caulk has there place but they will never replace common sense, and proper lapping of products.
