Casing Existing Columns


Looking for ideas to case existing circular stucco columns. Customer wants these to be cased in wood and stained to match existing woodwork, columns are 8"x10'. My first post here, thanks for the help.

Re: Casing Existing Columns


Are these interior or exterior columns? Load-bearing? What's inside them? Can you just rip the stucco off and work with what's left? It'd be far easier than cladding the stucco.
