I normally would run flashing behind the ledger and then a second piece over the ledger as a drip edge. Siding/J channel conceals it all.
Trying to determine the best way to flash a ledger for this home. Using 2X8's set to the bottom edge of the 2x10 I will have the space to run the flashing up tight to the underside of the log above, but it would be visible. Do guys just use painted flashing or cut it a trim board/molding to conceal it. I'm trying to envision brown flashing here, but just don't like the thought of it.
Alternatively, I could flash behind the joist only and snug the ledger up close to the bottom of the log above. However there would be no drip edge over the ledger board.
Thoughts?
