A method of replacing an existing fenestration unit secured in a rough opening in a wall having a finished exterior includes releasing an existing fenestration unit from the wall by cutting around the existing fenestration unit, including cutting into the finished exterior of the wall and through a perimeter portion of the existing fenestration unit to release the fenestration unit from the wall. The method also includes removing the existing fenestration unit from the rough opening in the wall, installing a water management system along a sill of the rough opening, and inserting a new fenestration unit into the rough opening. The new fenestration unit is secured in the rough opening.

1. A method of replacing an existing fenestration unit secured in a rough opening in a wall having a finished exterior, the method comprising: releasing an existing fenestration unit from the wall by cutting around the existing fenestration unit, including cutting into the finished exterior of the wall and through a perimeter portion of the existing fenestration unit to release the fenestration unit from the wall;removing the existing fenestration unit from the rough opening in the wall;placing a sill liner adjacent a sill of the rough opening such that a sill liner channel faces upward toward the center of the rough opening,placing a head liner adjacent a head of the rough opening such that a head liner channel faces upward away from the center of the rough opening, the head liner including first and second connection ports at each end of the head liner channel; andplacing a first jamb liner adjacent a first jamb of the rough opening such that a first jamb liner channel is aligned with the sill liner channel and the first connection port of the head liner channel, such that fluid can flow from the head liner channel to the first jamb liner channel via the first connection port, and then from the first jamb liner channel to the sill liner channel,placing a second jamb liner adjacent a second jamb of the rough opening such that a second jamb liner channel is aligned with the sill liner channel and the second connection port of the head liner channel, such that fluid can flow from the head liner channel to the second jamb liner channel via the second connection port, and then from the second jamb liner channel to the sill liner channel;inserting a new fenestration unit into the rough opening; andsecuring the new fenestration unit in the rough opening. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein cutting through the perimeter portion of the fenestration unit includes cutting through a nailing fin of the fenestration unit. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the finished exterior includes stucco material, and cutting into the finished exterior of the wall includes cutting the stucco material along the sill framing of the rough opening such that the stucco material does not project above the sill. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein placing the sill liner adjacent the sill of the rough opening includes placing a bead of sealant between the finished exterior and the rough opening at the jambs and sill and leaving a gap at a head between the finished exterior and the rough opening substantially free of sealant such that moisture is able to travel between the rough opening and the finished exterior at the head. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the finished exterior and a head of the rough opening define a gap, the method further comprising leaving the gap between the head and the finished exterior open following insertion of the new fenestration unit into the rough opening. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein each of the sill liner, the first jamb liner and the second jamb liner having substantially the same cross-section, the cross-section defining a first side and a second side opposite the first side, the method further comprising orienting the sill liner with the first side of the cross-section toward a center of the rough opening and the first and second jamb liners with the second side of the cross-section toward the center of the rough opening. 7. The method of claim 6, further comprising cutting at least one notch in a front portion of the sill liner. 8. The method of claim 6, wherein the head liner has substantially the same cross-section as the jamb and sill liners, the method further comprising installing the head liner with the second side of the cross-section toward the center of the rough opening. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the sill liner, first and second jamb liners, and head liner are each formed from the same preformed liner material. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein each of the sill liner, the head liner, the first jamb liner, and the second jamb liner have the same transverse cross-section. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the connection ports are formed as cutouts into a base of the channel of the head liner, such that fluid can flow from the channel of the head liner to the channels of the first and second jamb via the cutouts. 12. A method of preparing a water management system for installation in a rough opening, the method comprising: cutting a sill liner from a segment of pre-formed material such that the sill liner has a length corresponding to a sill of the rough opening, the segment of pre-formed material including a first base extending between a first end and a second end, a first flange extending from the first end of the first base and a second flange extending from the second end of the first base, the segment of material defining an elongate channel between the first and second flanges, and a second base extending from the second flange, the first and second bases being vertically offset from one another, the sill liner defining a sill liner channel corresponding to the elongate channel of the pre-formed material;forming a drainage port into the first flange of the sill liner; andcutting a jamb liner from a piece of the segment of pre-formed material such that the jamb liner has a length corresponding to a jamb of the rough opening, and such that the jamb liner defines a jamb liner channel corresponding to the elongate channel of the pre-formed material;installing the sill liner to a sill of the rough opening;installing the jamb liner to a jamb of the rough opening such that the sill liner channel is in fluid communication with the jamb liner channel. 13. The method of claim 12, further comprising: cutting a head liner from a piece of the segment of pre-formed material such that the head liner has a length corresponding to a head of the rough opening;forming at least one cutout into the first base at an end of a head liner channel corresponding to the elongate channel of the pre-formed material; andinstalling the head liner to a head of the rough opening such that the cutout aligns with the iamb liner channel, whereby fluid can flow from the head liner channel to the iamb liner channel via the cutouts.
