Frequently Asked Questions
-
A fluid-applied weather-resistive barrier is a seamless protective coating applied directly to a building's exterior sheathing. Unlike traditional house wrap, it forms a continuous membrane that helps prevent air and water infiltration while allowing moisture vapor to escape. The result is a more durable, energy-efficient building envelope.
-
Traditional house wrap can tear, wrinkle, or become damaged during installation and construction. Fluid-applied systems create a fully adhered, seamless barrier that eliminates many of the weak points associated with mechanically fastened house wrap. They provide improved air sealing, enhanced moisture protection, and long-term durability..

Yes. While much of our work is completed for builders and general contractors, we also work with homeowners, architects, and developers looking for high-performance building envelope solutions.
-
We install industry-leading fluid-applied weather-resistive barrier systems from trusted manufacturers. We can recommend the best system based on your project requirements, climate, and building design.
-
We were Utah's first dedicated fluid-applied weather-resistive barrier specialists. Unlike companies that added weather barriers as another service, this is our specialty. Our focus, experience, and attention to detail help builders achieve higher-performing buildings with fewer callbacks and greater confidence.
-
The fluid-applied system is installed after the exterior sheathing is complete and before windows, siding, brick, stucco, or other exterior cladding systems are applied.
-
Installation time depends on the size and complexity of the project. Most residential projects can be completed in a matter of days, while larger commercial projects are scheduled according to project scope and construction timelines.
