What's the Difference Between Stucco and Plaster?
Stucco is a versatile and durable material made from cement, lime, and sand. It's known for its rugged texture and is often used for exterior surfaces. Here's why you might choose stucco:
Plaster, on the other hand, is a mixture of gypsum, lime, or cement with water and is typically used for interior walls and ceilings. Here's why plaster might be your choice:
- Durability: Stucco can withstand harsh weather conditions. It is often used to texture external walls and provides a rereshing and unique surface to homes and commercial buildings.
- Aesthetic Appeal: Offers a rustic and earthy look.
- Energy Efficiency: The addition of a surface layer of stucco helps to increase the insulation rating of exterior walls.
Plaster, on the other hand, is a mixture of gypsum, lime, or cement with water and is typically used for interior walls and ceilings. Here's why plaster might be your choice:
- Smooth Finish: Provides a sleek and polished appearance.
- Customization: Allows for various texture styles and finishes.
- Quick Installation: Because it is applied at once over a large surface, plaster tends to be a quicker process than traditional drywall, which requires a number of separate installation and finishing steps.
