What is the difference between EIFS and traditional stucco?Here's a brief comparison between EIFS and traditional stucco: EIFS (Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems): Composition: Foam insulation board with a base coat, reinforcing mesh, and finish coat. Application: Applied as a complete system, offers better insulation and energy efficiency. Performance: Can have moisture issues if not properly maintained but provides a smooth, customizable finish. Maintenance: Requires regular inspections and can be complex to repair. Traditional Stucco: Composition: Cement, sand, and water applied in scratch, brown, and finish coats over lath. Application: Applied in multiple layers, known for durability but less insulating. Performance: Durable and weather-resistant, with a textured finish and good breathability. Maintenance: Needs periodic sealing and can be easier to repair locally. EIFS offers better insulation and flexibility, while traditional stucco is valued for its durability and classic look.
