 We can take one of our standard models and modify it to a different size or variation

 In this case the volutes were made wider, the fascia board was made smaller

 Attention to Details

   There are a few points that should be considered

   A) Do you want a whole acorn or urn or a 1/2 element that goes up against a wall 

   B) Do the Volutes (curly part) exceed the Fascia Moulding (C) as shown here

   C) Does the Fascia require a header - a rectangular band under the moulding ?

   D) Depth - how deep is each part - please think in 3D

 Materials

 For Historic accuracy Imperial can produce an exact duplicate of  your existing pediment in

 Hardwood both carved and milled.  You cannot use interior woods such as Poplar outside.

 In fact. we discourage you from using  Poplar or Basswood as it is too hairy and absorbent when

 painting or staining. 

 Exterior Woods include:

 Knotty Pine: Shellac the knots before painting

 Clear Pine: Some knots but small

 Western Red Cedar: Soft but Rot resilient

 White Oak: Extremely Hard

 Interior Wood Selection:

 Cherry, Walnut, Red Oak, Maple, Alder, Knotty Pine, White Oak etc 

 All are custom priced

 ArchPolymerTM is a synthetic composite

 material.  It is rot, water, and insect resistant.

 You can cut it like wood, screw into it.

 They are primed white. The backs are often

 hollow but the walls are thick. 

 Solid back is an option

  INSTALLATION NOTES

  To install an ArchPolymerTM pediment use our construction adhesive on the back.

  If the substrate is brick use Tapcons by predrilling holes for the screws. If the substrate

  is stucco or siding use long - preferably no rust nickel screws and cover the countersunk

  head with our spackling compound.

 GFRC-ZeamentTM

 a Cement Composite

 Pediments can be custom made in GFRC-ZeamentTM for exterior use

  ZeamentTM is a lite weight composite consisting of Portland Cement, sand, aggregates,

  alkali resistant fiber, polymer, adhesives and water.  

  Glass fibers re-enforce the product resulting in a stronger material than normal

  concrete. ZeamentTM is a 1/2" thick laminate re-enforced with steel and usually installed by drywall,

   millwork and masonry contractors.

  It is lightweight enough to reduce the amount of structural steel required for a building, much less

  than 40lbs per square foot for

  precast concrete yet strong enough to be used in hurricane and earthquake zones. 

  GFRC can be used for columns, cornice, frieze,

  wall panels, domes, finals, pediments balustrades and more. 

  ZeamentTM can be supplied

  1) Smooth paint grade finish

  2) Internally pigmented in 12 colors
