Hi,
I am building a house with three sides stucco and front side stone. As the temperature in Jan will be around -5C degree here, I most likely will leave stucco finishing coat to the Spring and put forms for now to protect the house. Now the same question comes to stone. Should I leave stone work to the Spring (cover outside with plastic and insulate inside if city inspector let me), or do I have to complete stone in order to insulate interior?
If I leave stone work to the Spring/April, I can get better job quality and save a bit on heating for stone work. but I may have to pay a bit more for indoor heating. If I have to do stone work in Winter then I will need to heat it up for 10 days or so with a bit risk of not heating well.
Any suggestion is appreciated!
