Recs for someone to troubleshoot waterproofing issues on deck door

*A Simple Waterproofing Advice*

From the looks of it, I think you used wasted waterproofing material. Try using good chemicals and it would be better if you take advice from a waterproofing professional. They would surely suggest to you the best thing to use.

op should now focus on possible entry points from outside now that we have sort of good pics of inside. the same sort of straight on pics from the outside from brick to brick might help.

some of this, not all of it, but some of it may be the problem of fitting something made for a new suburban house into something built before the idea of the suburbs had been conceived. even if the installers read the out of the box directions, the need for modifications was probably still present.

i would be glad to look at more pics, op.

Thanks all! Attaching a pic of the outside of the door. I guess my question still remains – is there anyone that people on the forum recommend to handle a job like this? As is I cannot leave my house if it’s raining because of the amount of water coming through – so time is of the essence.

@carriagehouse99 – when you say cut back the deck, you mean separate the deck away from the door? The deck sits above my downstair’s neighbors bathroom (what used to be the old mudroom) and that’s my sole egress to the deck / access to my half of the backyard, so not sure how that would work.

Now, up close with some light, lower half of the door, so I can see the sides and bottom. I am wondering if the frame is caulked. Or maybe pictures of the frame where it meets the brick, straight on.

If I can get a sense of what is causing this and can tell you what might correct it, it may simply be a handyman job.

Steve cym and doors by are one and the same.

with a larger screen i looked at the photo and could not tell if there was caulk between the white door frame and the brick on the left side. on a wood door, that would be called the brick mold. maybe a close up of the left side and use the flash. even in daylight, use the flash to fill it out.

The door frame (white wood framing to brick) is fully caulked – I had it redone two years ago when I noticed some cracking. [IMG_0352](//muut.com/u/brownstoner/s3/:brownstoner:8ufz:img_0352.jpg.jpg)

@ Op Annep, My Goodness. How it would work is to simoly remove a 30″x30″ section and reframe. [Sample of Deck Clearance](//muut.com/u/brownstoner/s3/:brownstoner:jMr5:sampleofdeckclearance.jpg.jpg) [IMG_1641](//muut.com/u/brownstoner/s1/:brownstoner:DdEi:img_1641.jpg.jpg)
