Why Get It Right the First Time

No shortcuts
on new construction.

The most expensive stucco repairs Dallas performs are on homes that were built wrong the first time. Missing kickout flashing. Barrier EIFS with no drainage plane. Window flashing installed backwards. These mistakes are invisible at completion and catastrophic 5 years later. Dallas installs new construction exterior systems the way they were designed to work.

  • ◆
    Proper drainage plane behind all EIFS — never barrier EIFS on new construction
  • ◆
    Kickout flashing at every roof-wall junction — installed before stucco goes on
  • ◆
    Window flashing integrated with moisture barrier — not just caulked at the perimeter
  • ◆
    Control joints at all structural transitions — sized and placed correctly for Utah's thermal movement
  • ◆
    6-day water cure on hard-coat systems — the step most new construction subs skip entirely

Frequently Asked Questions

New construction
answered.

Questions from Utah builders and homeowners building new.

How far in advance should I contact Dallas for a new build?
Contact Dallas when your framing is 4 to 6 weeks out. He needs time to review plans, submit a bid, order materials, and schedule his crew. Last-minute calls create scheduling conflicts that push your timeline. Early contact means Dallas can plan your project properly and commit to a firm start date.
What does Dallas need to provide a new construction bid?
Architectural plans or elevations showing the exterior scope. Square footage of each wall face. Window and door schedule. Material specification if the architect has specified a system — or Dallas can recommend the right system for your climate zone and budget. He returns a written itemized bid within 48 hours.
Can Dallas work directly with a homeowner building custom?
Yes — Dallas works directly with homeowners building custom homes as well as with general contractors. He coordinates with your GC or acts as the exterior sub on owner-builder projects. He handles his own permits and inspections either way.
What is the difference between EIFS and hard coat on new construction?
Hard-coat is traditional 3-coat Portland cement stucco — more impact resistant, better on masonry substrates, requires 6-day water cure. EIFS provides superior continuous insulation and is better for wood-frame new construction where energy efficiency is a priority. Dallas recommends based on your wall assembly, climate zone, and architect specification. Both systems are installed with full drainage plane on new construction.
Does Dallas handle the window installation on new construction?
Yes — Dallas coordinates window installation with the stucco system so the moisture barrier and window flashing are integrated correctly from the start. This is far better than having a separate window contractor install windows before the stucco sub arrives. One contractor controlling both systems means no gaps and no blame-shifting if something fails.
