Did You Know… EIFS Is Not Wasteful of Natural Resources
The common pitfall that may seem to fall into is the fact that because the insulation board used in EIFS is derived from fossil fuels, it should be exempt from being specified. The truth of the matter is that EPS production accounts for only .002 percent of the world’s production of oil. And it has been determined that one pound of EPS used as insulation will actually save 48 gallons of oil in a 50 year period of time. This significant in terms of preserving those resources. Another little known fact about EPS is that it uses 30 percent less energy to make tan paper products. Think...

Read MoreEIFS Provides Leadership
In August 2007, the United States Green Building Council updated the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) scoring system criteria. The new criterion calls for all LEED projects to achieve a minimum of two “Optimizing Energy Performance” points.

The criteria also gives up to 8 points for buildings that can show even better energy performance than the minimum. Conceivable a new building showing a 35% better energy...
Read MoreVery satisfied with our new stucco exterior
Reviewed on Customer Lobby “We hired Worldgate Plaster & Stucco Co. to apply stucco on the back of our house and it looks really nice. We had to wait a few extra weeks for them to finish the job because of the weather, but they were very friendly and professional, we enjoyed having them in our home. We had been wanting to get this done for awhile so we’re satisfied with the results and would recommend them if you’re looking to get a stucco wall placed inside or outside of your home.” Anthony R.

Read MoreEffective Air Barrier Installation Can Potentially Net 40% Better Energy Efficiency
What’s really cool about the second generation of EIFS (with drainage) is that the liquid applied water-resistive barrier that is included as part of a moisture management strategy is also a very effective air barrier. In no time is there any worry for reverse overlaps, tears, or fastener punctures commonly associated with sheet applied house wraps or building papers. This is because the WRB is completely monolithic and the EIFS is installed with adhesive. This is important because it has been demonstrated by the National Institute of Standards that an effective air barrier on a typical...
