Slight envelope problem... or window seal?
On Sunday morning, I saw a large amount of water dripping onto the stairs. I am hoping it is because the tyvek is not sealed to the underside of the roof flashing. The wind was wickedly breezy on Sunday, so it essentially was blowing the roof water in behind the tyvek. Which then got in behind the nail fin of the window. That's theory number 1. I hope the fix [as we were always intending] is basically to use a peel and stick wrap at the top. Hope so.
