House wrap, Rain Screen, and Window Flashing Details

In this video we cover weather barriers start to finish. Putting up house wrap, rain screens, flashing window penetrations and much more!

As a carpenter, I can vouch for this guy. well done video. one thing I could suggest is that if you're planning to put rain screen on right after house wrap, one only needs to put enough fasteners on the house wrap to hold it in place. The rain screen fastens the wrap better than anything. Saves on penetrations too.
Sure wish I was starting my career from the beginning. YouTube is a wealth of resources. I spent 30 working years learning as I went.

Your videos are life-savers! Can't thank you enough for taking the time to record these. The videos strike the perfect balance between time and thoroughness. I appreciate the detail.

[FinnDelMundoTravel]

Your videos are by far the most comprehensive I have seen online! Thanks so much for making them 👌

When using the vertical PT plywood batten strips, shouldn't they be spaced away from the window trim to prevent capillary attraction of water between the batten strip and the window trim? I'm thinking maybe placing the batten strip about 1/4" away from the window trim to prevent any water from being trapped against the window trim and eventually causing decay of the trim. Great video- thank you!

You are teaching folks to flash windows incorrectly. Dude reverse lapped the window install. Use the same logic as shingling a roof with flashing hierarchy folks.

I was able to watch these your videos and learn how to actually build a tiny house (which is crazy). Because your videos are very detailed (plus your building solutions and philosophy is near to me). Thank you so much, Brian.

Great video! You should consider adding links in the description for all the products mentioned. As your channel grows it should provide a decent amount of affiliate income.

You are a wealth of great info.Extremely well presented.Thank you kindly

Great video, covers everything I needed - except one "tiny" detail. I am doing a faux board-and-batten style using ACX plywood and then battens. Would I use furring vertical wood furring strips or vertical Cor-a-vent? Keep making these videos and a big thank you!

😂 I have been watching your videos for days and just now realized I never subscribed. Now I am subscribed.

Awesome vid, great detail. Thank you!

Your speed square trick to apply flashing is very helpful, thank you.

in a sea of tinyhouse videos with backwards techniques, this guy knows what he's talking about. well done.

[HamidA-tovy]

Why should you put a staple every 16 inches All you need to tackle it in the place until you put rainscreens,

[rainygreene]

I was hoping that you would have a link in the description to the window.

Is it okay to build such a way in a Kenyan environment?

[annhysell]

After watching many tiny house videos over the past few years, I'm so pleased to have found your build. Excellent information and will be used a my go-to resource for my build next summer. Thank you so much for your explanations, your time & editing. Be well.

Hey Brian, quick question. Do you have any opinion on the hubor zip system as a replacement for tyvek? Adding to that they have a liquid flash product that replaces tyvek tape (although they do have tape as well)? My wife and I love your videos. We just purchased a 30 foot iron eagle last week. I can't wait to get started/lose some hair.

Truly, these videos are excellent. I am so glad I found your channel. While I don't have a tiny house, I have done a ton of DIY work recently and intend to apply these concepts to a standard 2500+ sf house. Thank you! I hope your channel explodes :)
