ZIP Sheathing After 10 Years Exposed — What Survived & What Failed

On a new “re-do” build next to a failed project, I walk the site in the Columbia Missouri market and show what we found after roughly a decade of exposure on ZIP-clad walls—what held up, what didn’t, and how we’d approach the rebuild so the next house actually lasts. This is a field case study, not a warranty claim. The official manufacturer guidance for ZIP System sheathing/tapes limits exposure during construction; this video simply documents what we saw and the lessons we’re taking forward.
