When it comes to selecting a contractor for your project, several factors may come in to play, such as price or ability to meet a schedule. However, if the end result is a quality repair that will extend the service life of your structure, then you should choose a quality contractor. Unfortunately, that doesn’t always mean the contractor with the lowest price. There is usually a very good reason for price variation.

The Trisco Systems team has been on a mission to get healthier and more active this summer! Nine Trisco employees signed up for a 6-week step challenge. Each participant was entered to win a grand prize at the end of the challenge. Each individual attempted to reach 10,000 steps at least one day each week. Over half of the participants ended up reaching the goal of 10,000 steps and completing the challenge.

Background
If you have looked closely at historic buildings of any architectural significance, you have likely seen architectural terra cotta. Though it is not used nearly as much today as it once was, terra-cotta was very popular between the 1890’s and 1930’s and was significant in the development of the Chicago Style, High Rise, Historic, and Beaux Art Styles in this period.

Historical Stucco
The use of stucco can be dated back to ancient times and is still used throughout the world today as one of the most common traditional building materials. Stucco is a form of exterior plaster applied directly onto masonry, wood or metal lath or wood frame structures. Stucco is a kind of chameleon in the building world as it can often be used to disguise or mimic the look of other materials without going noticed. Many people confuse traditional stucco with more modern synthetic finishes such as EIFS.
Stucco’s popularity has grown as it is a relatively inexpensive material compared to other exterior finishes, which can be used to imitate different designs. This material can give the appearance of a more expensive, high-end exterior finish. Stucco is also a great material to protect your structure from the elements when installed correctly, and can give a certain amount of fire-protection as well.
