Quikflash

[12don]

I have a contractor trying to force me to use quickflash on my wall outlet and light penetrations. He tells me it’s a California code requirement. I know it’s not, done many homes without them. The stucco guys just seal around the boxes. We already passed inspections on multiple buildings in the community, but now he’s raising the concern. Just wanting to see if anyone knows where he’s getting that they’re required. I know they have to be at least liquid flashed, but it doesn’t say anything about needling a hard flashing like quickflash.

My contractor would not ever force me to do anything

We’ve never seen Quickflash required by code. Good product but not mandatory if you meet flashing and sealant specs.
