"Just Caulk It," They Said... 😅
I think we’re going to need a bigger boat... or at least a lot of backer rod. Standard sealant is great, but it’s not magic. When the gap between the window and the masonry gets this wide, a standard bead of caulk will fail faster than a New Year’s resolution. Structural movement and thermal expansion mean this joint needs to breathe and flex. A massive glob of sealant just won't hold up. https://posts.gle/V1a1C2qfPytBdHop6 #HomeInspectorLife #FoundIt #BuildingFail #Arkans
