ABSTRACT:
A water flashing device is provided for use in conjunction with the installation of exterior building siding materials to create a moisture-impervious barrier that directs water to the exterior of the siding to prevent damage to building walls caused by water and moisture. The flashing device has a substantially rectangular planar structure and is preferably configured to be secured tightly adjacent to any corner of a window or door opening, most effectively at the bottom corners of a window opening in a building exterior wall to be covered by vinyl siding materials. The flashing device is formed of a flexible, waterproof material and has an engagement surface and a water-diverting surface. The engagement surface may be completely covered with a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive or may include selectively placed strips of pressure sensitive adhesive that is protected by a release paper until the flashing device is to be installed.
