Tired of Tyvek?  Here’s a product that is being used on a North Jersey residential project of mine…  Zip-System exterior wall and roof sheathing.

It claims to do double duty as sheathing and moisture barrier and withstand the weather (within limits) for 3 months!  It sure looks nicer than plywood and house wrap on a project for weeks while you wait on siding/masonry to be installed.

I’ll be sure to provide additional thoughts as this project progresses.

    That is SO much easier on the eyes. Like designer jeans vs sweat pants
