So Build It that the Original Beauty of the Stucco will be Preserved S
PECIFY Bishopric Board for your client’s Stucco dream home and advise the use of the Stucco
mixtures described in our booklet.
Bishopric Board preserves the beauty of Stucco because it holds the walls and columns permanently intact. Its dovetailed-key wood strips hold the Stucco in a vise-like grip and repairs are never necessary. Bishopric Board is nailed so positively to the building that the weight of the Stucco cannot strain a single wood strip. Other backgrounds cannot be nailed so securely, a big reason why they fail to keep the Stucco surface unmarred
mospheric change. The Asphalt Mastic in which the wood strips are imbedded is a tough, preservative material and retards moisture. The waterproofed fibreboard backing is a nonconductor and prevents circulation of moisture.
Not only does Bishopric Board keep Stucco firmly locked for generations but it insulates the home perfectly and deadens sound. It costs less than other Stucco bases and requires one-third less Stucco. You can give your clients extra conveniences with the saving effected.
Used on interior walls, ceilings and partitions it provides desirable insulation, smothers sound and saves time, labor and plaster. Makes avery warm home yet cool in summer.
