Miscellaneous Repair

Project 24396a – Vinyl Windows in Masonry Building are leaking – 2011

Click on Photos to Enlarge

The Conquistador on S.E. Belmont Street in Portland.

There is water showing up at the top of the lower windows. So holes are cut in the drywall in the ceiling to trace back the water trail.

And upstairs, more holes are cut below those windows to confirm the suspicion that the 2nd story windows are the point of entry by which the…

…water infiltration is accessing the tops of the ground-floor windows. And indeed, confirmed it was.

No siding to remove here. The solution is actually fairly simple on this one. Provide & install “Sill-Pans” below the top-floor windows to reroute the water back out to the exterior if the sealant fails.

So the first Vinyl Window is removed from the masonry rough-opening.

Conan goes about cleaning the excess sealants from both the windows and the rough-openings…

…while Tim Afonin goes about field-fabricating several aluminum sill-pans.

Another mystery solved and another problem resolved.
