I'm a builder and I certainly don't claim to know everything there is to know about flashing, but I do recognize the importance of flashing in maintaining building integrity over the long run. Do you have any good sources for flashing education that you would recommend? thanks, Carl I really appreciate what you have to say about flashing.

And like you point out on the multi-million dollar house that needed over $100,000 in repairs, improper installation can cause a HUGE amount of damage. I see this all the time, especially around chimney areas. Hi Ed,
