Identifying Exterior - Stucco or EIFS
I've got a house that is approx 15 yrs old. Its exterior finish is
"stucco". I just started reading some of the horror stories about the EIFS materials and water damage. How can I identify (without ripping the side off my house), whether I have a traditional stucco exterior, or an EIFS? Also, this issue came to the fore as I began to look at replacing windows in the house. Can anyone elaborate on whether full window replacements are an option with a stucco exterior? I've heard that a full window replacement (including frame) means ripping off several inches of the stucco around each window in order to lay down the nailing flange. Is this reality? |
