ABSTRACT:
A moisture barrier assembly for the end grain at the lower end of a wood casing such as door jambs, molding for exterior building sidings and window frames is disclosed. The barrier includes a moisture impervious plate such as plastic attached to and covering the entire lower surface of the casing. As an additional protective measure, a layer of a wood end grain sealant such as paraffin or other olefin wax is applied to the lower surface of the casing prior to attachment of the plate to the casing. The plate may also include one or more grooves or flutes across an upper surface portion thereof to permit air circulation between the plate and casing for drying the casing end grain in the event moisture seeps into the end grain through cracks or disruptions in the sealant layer from around the upper edges of the plate.
