Flashing concerns

| Posted in Construction Techniques on

*
Before I turn the mason loose, I want to be sure I have all of the flashing situations covered. I ran a 40 mil polyethylene/asphalt flashing at the foundation (Textro Flash). I was planning on using this above doors and windows, too. I have several circletop windows, though – what do I do there??

    Build round flashings, or find a sheetmetal shop that can build them for you.
