Woodpecker-Resistant EIFS Coatings

Met Exteriors repairs woodpecker damage and installs impact-resistant coating systems on suitable exterior assemblies. We assess damaged finishes and exposed insulation before recommending repairs and a compatible protective coating.

Why Do Woodpeckers Target EIFS?

Woodpeckers are naturally drawn to EIFS because they can easily peck through the outer layer and reach the soft foam underneath. In many cases, these areas become potential nesting spots, leading to repeated attacks on the same surface.

Impact-Resistant Coating Options

Many homeowners and property owners try temporary fixes such as shiny objects and deterrent devices, but these often fail to stop the problem. New homes built in older neighborhoods are especially vulnerable to woodpecker damage. Whether you’re buying or building, it’s essential to discuss this issue with your builder or realtor.

Our coating work follows the preparation and application requirements of the specified manufacturer’s system. An impact-resistant coating is designed to improve resistance to damage; it is not a guarantee that damage can never occur. Suitability and maintenance requirements depend on the existing exterior and selected product.

Assess the Damage Before Choosing a Repair
