They should have never mounted the deck over the EIFS! The rim plate should have been in place and flashed prior or better yet made it free standing.

If the tyvek is not under the nailfins at the bottom of the windows this time around what are they going to blame the damage on next time?

Flashings and properly installed moisture barriers under EIFS sure would save alot of money and heartache!

Linas,

Did you see this thread and video?

As you watch the video keep a close eye on the sills of the windows.

Linus if you were there were you using your IR? and what did you find.

Another way to get res is to load the pic on your website and then hit copy.

Just paste it to the forum.

No IR. This was a draw inspection. Moisture damage was found when contractor removed Dryvit as part of fireplace relocation. That's when the job escalated.
