PROTECT WHAT WILL NO LONGER BE VISIBLE.

Once stone, stucco, siding, roofing and interior finishes are installed, some of the home’s most important waterproofing details disappear.

EIDOS documents critical envelope conditions during construction—helping ensure that what was designed, specified, priced and approved is what the owner ultimately receives.
