Commercial EIFS Edmonton Project with Brick and Natural Stone
Met Exteriors completed this commercial exterior project in Edmonton, Alberta using EIFS together with brick veneer and natural stone. The combination of exterior finishes creates architectural contrast while allowing each cladding system to perform its own role within the building façade.
Commercial Exterior Cladding in Edmonton
Commercial buildings that combine several exterior materials require careful coordination. Transitions between EIFS, brick and stone need to work with openings, flashings, drainage and other building-envelope details. Alberta weather also makes moisture management and appropriate exterior detailing important considerations during construction.
EIFS provides an insulated exterior finish and allows architectural shapes, reveals and other façade details to be incorporated into a project. Brick veneer provides a traditional masonry appearance and natural stone can be used to create feature areas, entrances and visual contrast. When these materials are properly coordinated, they can create a distinctive commercial exterior without relying on a single cladding material.
EIFS, Brick and Natural Stone Installation
Our work on commercial façades includes preparation and coordination around wall transitions, windows, doors and other exterior penetrations. Attention to these areas is important because different cladding materials have different thicknesses, termination details and installation requirements.
