This is the 2' High density foam I used on the porch roofs:

Using Tapcon's & plastic washers to attach it to the basement block walls:

Initially I was going with stucco, but I think I will fill all the seams with Liquid nails, then use waterproof basement paint in a texture finish directly to the foam boards. After that I will paint it with a colored elastomeric paint....a clay pot color I think.

It's all up. I will be filling in the seams with liquid nails, then the first coat of basement paint will go on.

I have to stop work on it for a few days. One of our friends went to the hospital Friday due to fainting spells for the last 2 weeks.....ER went to do a blood pressure check....her resting heart beat was 26. They got her into surgery and put in a pacemaker.....she is in her 40's and very fit. They thought it might have been Lyme's disease, but all tests came back negative, so they still don't know what caused this. Anyway, the Kioti and I are over at their place helping get all 35 ac of hay cut, tedder'd, raked and baled since she is home bound for two weeks.

Go to page one of this thread, she is in the pic's of the excavation & footers....her & her husband own the Backhoe that did all my work.

I hope they find a cause and cure for her.
