Hello all,
This is my first post and sorry to say it is for help. I am replacing an octagonal window and have a question regarding the siding butting up to the j channel that borders the window. How does one prevent moisture from getting behing the j channel where the channel accepts the siding? I realize that silicone caulk should be used where the window meets the j channel but what about the siding butting up to the j channel, how do I make sure that any water around the window is diverted correctly away from FROM getting behind the siding?
