siding & StuccoThe project started by laying down Tyvek and securing it with waterproofing tape. We then installed windows over that and put more waterproofing tape. We then installed the netting with nails, making sure the paper went under the Tyvek, and the netting over. Once that was secured, we added our trim to separate the siding and stucco. Then, we got to work on applying stucco and scratching. Once we got that first layer on there, we added our second layer and scrubbed. We let that dry and finished up by installing our siding.

For this build, the most difficult aspect was doing the stucco. I was having a hard time with actually getting the stucco to stick, especially because the stucco was so heavy. The second layer of stucco was much easier to apply because we had the scratching from the last layer.
