I was replacing a sliding glass door and came across a nice discovery on my 1968 house in CT, lots of rotten wood and water damage. The deck is attached to the house with a ledger, but I don't believe there is any flashing. THe bottom few inches of the sheathing under the aluminum siding is completely rotten and just falls apart. I obviously should remove the aluminum siding and add some sort of flashing, but I am not sure I can safely remove the ledger board to get behind it to install the flashing. Any ideas? Can I install the flashing over the ledger? Thanks Jeremy
