EIFS replaced with REAL stucco
Lee Graham shopping center in Falls Church, Virginia
Here's how we did it:
⇉ HERE'S WHAT WE DID 2 YEARS AGO: ⇇
A scratch coat is put on the brick with acrylic bonder in the mortar.
This won't ever pop off the wall.
A decorative band is used to hide the joint between old and new.
We used white portland because it sets fast.
The band is made by nailing up plaster stop to define the top and bottom.
Metal studs were braced and new sheathing applied.
Dens glas and metal lath screwed on.
Column filled out to 3/4 inch and rodded off.
Please check back to see our column finished.
Inset is made by forming with one by's and filling in.
We're putting on the finish tomorrow. Please check back.
