Pebble dash stucco replaced in Chevy Chase
Washington, DC
1914 pebble dash house gets a re-stucco:
Apron flashing from the Roof Center worked perfectly for flashing over this trim board.
New flashing over the windows. Failed flashing is the main reason the stucco failed.
A view of the finished wall, showing the flashing.
Windows are protected from damage with styrofoam. One good use for styrofoam.
The band on the bottom was rebuilt. Here, tar paper is folded around one by fours.
The new band is set with a string line.
The bottom of the band is terminated with our weep stop, forming a drip edge.
Note the old salmon bricks on the foundation.
Invaders from outer space dash on the pebble mix.
3/8 inch river jacks match the old gravel exactly.
