Exterior Plaster Finishes

Plaster has been used for exterior walls since the beggining of recorded history.  It is a wonderful approach at creating a durable finish that does not need to be painted. Its durablility means that it withstands weather and impacts. Because plaster is so veristile in its application, the design possiblities are endless.  Stucco and plaster are always used when a project emulates an historic style, but it is also perfect for modern projects, even plaster applied to ICF and ACC blocks.

Architects and homeowners often choose exterior plaster because its ability to manipulated into details are almost limitless.  Also, it’s ability to withstand age, weather, heat without any maintenance is unparalleled.

This restoration involved matching the original design, while also introducing a modern version of stucco that provided enhanced insulating properties, and the ability to emulate Art Decco design details.
