Contractors that are tasked with restoring historic properties often require products that are capable of mimicking the original designs, while also dealing with some of the more modern issues of today. We encourage you to take a look at our cement coated EPS products the next time you’re looking to restore a property.
These high end products offer numerous benefits, especially when compared to wood, GFRG and GFRC, precast concrete, and other alternative options. Most contractors and architects that have tried our products use them for all of their builds and repairs – both historic and non-historic – because they receive both a cost savings and a product that can last for decades.
If you need products to help restore a historic property, contact Patterson Whittaker Architectural Profiles, today.
Benefits of Architectural Foam Products for Historic Restorations
While we may be admittedly bias over the quality of our products, we are also well aware of the needs of historic properties, and how our products can truly shine. The list of benefits is long, but includes:
- Fire Resistance – Since “catching fire” is one of the most problematic issues for historic properties, the fire resistance of architectural foam can be one additional barrier in preventing further and future damage.
- Simple, Lightweight Installation – Perhaps the greatest benefit of our products are their light weight. They are so light weight, they can often be installed with *no manual reinforcement*, something that is especially valuable when installing the products on older properties that may not have the strength to handle heavy weights. It also dramatically decreases labor costs, as these can be held by a single person and glued on.
- No Property Damage – Because of their installation process, they do not add weight to the property and do not penetrate the waterproof barrier. Yet they are also weatherproof and incredibly durable, so you won’t see any additional damage.
These products are durable, essentially entirely weatherproof, and – perhaps most importantly – can be finished in the exact style of the historic property, so there is no loss in appearance.
While the products and labor are inexpensive compared to other materials, they are still very high end products. The quality of their construction is apparent as soon as they’re made, all while you save money on the overall costs of the restoration project.
