Fitting Cladding on bay windows?

I'd see how the spacing works once you've established how you can fix the cladding in that nasty little triangle on the side. I've not followed the thread and can' be bothered to trawl through it now but what is that band around the bay just beneath the 1st floor window?

What is the height of a cladding board (if it is tongue n groove do not include the height of the tongue) or post a photo of a tape measure measuring the height of a board

What is the height of the rendered wall from downstairs window top to underside of upper sill?

I think the band is flashing that's been painted.

Got another problem, Just measured how far sills jut out.

The sills on front hang over 75mm and 100mm which is fine but down the sides it's between 35mm-45mm ideally gotta be at least 88mm. To deal with this would need to use L shape flashing or profiles thing- (have attached photo).

I was told to start at bottom then rip top one to size

This poject is really a non-starter really, you can't go fixing through that existing flashing to fix a new flashing as per the Cedral stock detail, you were told to measure the cills a month ago. Fitting cladding onto existing buildings only works if the existing building lends itself to it.

So the cladding is a no go under 1st floor window even if it's just the front not the sides because of that flashing? (Pix below)


Regarding the ground floor, would it be fine with the additional added flashing id screw into wall which prevents water running behind justfor 35mm hang over on sides?

The ground floor has no flashing under the current window. The picture is below 1st floor only
