EIFS/Water Barrier

EIFS/Water Barrier

EIFS/Water Barrier systems, also known as Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems, are composite wall cladding systems that provide both insulation and a weather-resistant barrier.

These systems typically consist of an insulation board covered with a reinforced polymer base coat and a decorative finish coat. The primary function of EIFS is to improve a building’s energy efficiency while offering a variety of aesthetic options. However, they also require careful installation and maintenance to prevent moisture intrusion. Water barriers, a crucial component of EIFS, are designed to protect the underlying structure from water damage. These barriers can be integrated into the EIFS system to provide additional protection against moisture and air leakage.

Price: 5-10$ a sqft.
