How to repair Leaking Flashing on a Stucco Wall

[@MarioIArguello]

Thumbs up. I did something similar but more elaborate to a poor flashing install in an extension to my home with a tile roof, which originally had issues with leaks, flashing over stucco instead of under, bad install. I actually carved the stucco and stuck the flashing under it and re stucco and seal coated, never had leak problem again. The story of my life is having hard time trusting people, even professional companies that do not have well trained employees. The quality of work is not only on the planning and prep but also in the final details and not many companies pay attention to details, or [premeditate the proper steps in the work requires. I am a perfectionist and I like things done right the first time, reason I work best on my own and I end up doing most of the work myself, wherever I can. If I was a contractor, I would be very good and successful at it, but that is not the line of work I enjoy, however, it is good to understand the mechanics of things, especially when you own a home and are a DIYer.

Would you use the same method to repair where a stucco wall meets an uncovered balcony floor?

You earned my subscription, man. Good video, you're awesome.

welcome

[@jaimedpcaus1]

Great video. So, is the metal flash screwed right on top of the cement? Would you then place stucco on top of the liquid products you just applied to the cement?

[@FlatRoofDoctor]

just to the cement

[@larrycrookshanks1646]

Turbo is nothing more than liquid caulk. Snap a chalk line above the damaged area and use a 4" diamond grinder to cut a 1" slot in the wall. Use preformed metal flashing with a reglet edge and install caulk in the joint. Install the metal in the joint. Use Zamac mushroom head anchors to hold metal in place then top caulk the joint and smooth it out with caulk knife.

Sure, make a video about it.

Thanks so much. You're the master.

[@FlatRoofDoctor]

You're welcome!

@@FlatRoofDoctor I often saw that when people replaced their old widows with double pane windows, they installed trim (2 inch wide) around the new windows. Did they do so to prevent leaking?

Can the aluminum paint be painted over with the wall paint.

[@FlatRoofDoctor]

You can protect the bTurbo Poly Seal with any oil based paint or primer then any paint

[@nickwarry7833]

Thanks for another informative video. Not sure Turbo Polyseal is available in UK but there may be something similar. One bit of feedback for your safety, please wear your safety glasses when chipping with a hammer!

What was the white roll that looked like toilet paper?

[@edwingonzalez6128]

Thank you I did exactly the same job following your series of videos. Thank you. Do you recommend karnak 97 fiber or non fiber coat for a torch down flat roof?

[@FlatRoofDoctor]

Hi Edwin. Karnak makes the best products. That is definitely good to use

[@ceasarcardoza3352]

What brand of silver coat protection did you use

[@FlatRoofDoctor]

Any brand is fine, normally I would get it with the kit at Bergstromm.com but you can buy it at Home Depot. Karnak is the best brand

[@inspection101]

What is the fabric called ? That you used over the Turbo Poly seal

[@FlatRoofDoctor]

polyester fleece, you can find it on the website alongside the turbo poly. bergstromm.com/

[@chinga7264]

I think need to patch the stucco before applying roofing seal.

Roofer or painter?

Fixer!

[@lgigli8254]

@@FlatRoofDoctor That's my questions. Roofers won't touch it and just hired stucco people and they couldn't do it. Its too high on the ladder for me. Hard to find fixers around here!

[@elvismosquea1037]

you are the man🫡

[@EXCELSIOR_INC]

Can you use toilet paper for this to cut costs? 3:53

Silver coat is not a forever solution.

[@FlatRoofDoctor]

Correct, nothing is forever. I can vouch for that. I wish my youth and energy was forever.
