Hi All,
Windows are installed with nailfin on WRB. Due to lattice or grid rainscreen, the siding will protrude 1 1/2”, therefore we will have innie windows, which I love the look of. My builder is not familiar with this design and I want to ensure it is done properly. Can someone share how to create something similar to this look without water instrusion issues?
see attached photos.
