What is Stucco?
Stucco is a finish system used in the construction of homes or commercial buildings. Modern stucco, or Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems (E.I.F.S), sometimes referred to as “synthetic stucco”, is a multi-layered exterior barrier-type system designed to prevent moisture intrusion into exterior walls.
Benefits of Stucco
