Exterior Walls ConstructionConstruction

Exterior walls are critical to both the structure and beauty of your home. Poorly-built exterior walls can impact the efficiency, integrity, safety, and curb appeal of your house. Not to mention, exterior walls support other parts of your home like the roof and interior walls. Without exterior wall maintenance, our homes would be unable to withstand the many elements it’ll face in San Jose, the Bay area and east coast.

FAQs

What is a shear wall, and why do I need it?

A shear wall is a structural panel designed to resist lateral forces, such as those during an earthquake. In California, these are essential for maintaining the stability of your home.

How do I know if my exterior walls have structural issues?

Common signs include large diagonal cracks in stucco, windows or doors that no longer close properly, and visible bowing or leaning of the wall surface.

Can I change my home’s exterior material during a wall rebuild?

Absolutely. This is the perfect time to upgrade from old siding to modern stucco or stone, which can improve both durability and home value.
