Re: Block vs Stick Construction
Both built to the same building code. Stick has better insulation in the walls R11 / Block R5 unless foam injected 9 which most are not ). May be less problems with termites..but everyone treats for them so it is a wash....
Block is stucco covered and has a nicer appearance, but requires painting evedry 5 to 7 years.. Vinyl needs to be power washed a couple of times a year.
They did a test and fired a 2x4 at a block wall at 100MPH... went right through it....
