Most common defects in synthetic-stucco (eifs) homes.
EIFS / Synthetic Stucco Moisture
Concealed EIFS moisture rots sheathing and framing silently and is one of the most expensive defects on upscale Minnetonka homes.
Missing Kickout Flashing
A single missing kickout flashing can rot a wall cavity for years before any visible stain appears.
Water Intrusion Around Windows
Window-perimeter intrusion is a primary EIFS failure point and rots framing long before it shows indoors.
Chimney & Flashing Defects
Chimney and flashing leaks cause concealed framing rot and are common on the larger chimneys of Minnetonka estates.
