Episode 758: Stucco: The Hard Truths with Thomas Bartholetti

On this episode, we’re diving into stucco and EIFS systems—what they are, how they’re built, and why they matter. Based on a free webinar by InterNACHI® designed for home inspectors, we’ll explore the history, materials, and real-world applications of these systems. We’ll break down moisture barriers, flashings, wall penetrations, testing methods, and more—so you can better identify issues, prevent moisture intrusion, and protect your clients with confident, informed inspections. If you’re ready to sharpen your skills and stay ahead in the field, this one’s for you.
