About Carrara Stucco
The Evolution of Stucco
Tape & Float Stucco℠ by Carrara is fundamentally different: it goes up like drywall. The foundation is made up of fiber cement panels. There are major benefits when thinking of stucco like drywall, not the least being: Time, Durability, and Cost.
Lesson learnedThe lesson is simple: build on a sound foundation. We believe that LP SmartSide® panels are a better foundation than either lath & cement or EIFS-foam. And the benefits of Carrara's cement-free finish based on a drywall model are clear:
- Quicker to install than 3-coat stucco or EIFS
- More impact resistance than EIFS
- APA approved for single wall construction (direct to studs)
- Cement-free=Crack resistant
- Installed like drywall and texture
- 5/50 year limited warranty panel
- Time & labor savings = cost savings
