Services
Stucco Installation
Our stucco installation combines traditional methods with modern materials for durable, weather-resistant exteriors. We use fiberglass-reinforced base coats and acrylic finishes that resist cracking while offering customizable textures and colors. The multi-step process includes proper drainage systems and code-compliant flashing to ensure long-lasting performance for both residential and commercial properties.
Stone Veneer
We install natural and manufactured stone veneer that enhances curb appeal while maintaining structural integrity. Our system incorporates proper drainage and ventilation to prevent moisture issues. The lightweight materials allow faster installation compared to full-thickness stone while providing similar aesthetic benefits and weather resistance for both new construction and renovation projects.
Siding Repair
Our siding repair services address water intrusion issues while improving energy efficiency. We work with Certainteed and James Hardie products that offer durability and low maintenance. The process includes identifying and fixing underlying moisture sources, replacing damaged materials, and ensuring proper installation techniques to prevent future problems in both residential and commercial applications.
Remediation Services
Our remediation process addresses moisture intrusion through comprehensive analysis and targeted repairs. Certified inspectors perform moisture testing, identify affected areas, and implement code-compliant solutions. We handle both immediate repairs and long-term prevention strategies, including drainage system installation and exterior system upgrades for residential and commercial properties.
Drain Screed
The patented Drain Screed system prevents water damage through dual drainage mechanisms. This AMICO HYDRODRY component allows moisture evacuation via top vents and bottom drainage channels. Developed by Denis Friel, this technology integrates with various cladding systems to protect both residential and commercial buildings from mold, mildew, and structural damage caused by trapped moisture.
