A method for making an environmental barrier coating (12) using a sintering aid comprising : applying a bond coat layer (14) to a ceramic component (10); combining at least water, and a primary transition material comprising a rare earth disilicate, or a doped rare earth disilicate to produce a transition layer slurry; combining at least water, and a primary outer material comprising a rare earth monosilicate or a doped rare earth monosilicate to produce an outer layer slurry; combining at least water, and a primary compliant material comprising BSAS or a rare earth doped BSAS to produce a compliant layer slurry; applying at least the transition layer slurry, and any one or more of the outer layer slurry or the compliant layer slurry, to the component (10); drying the component; infiltrating a sol-gel solution comprising an aqueous solution of a water soluble salt sintering aid, or an organic solvent solution of a solvent soluble salt sintering aid into the applied slurry layers; and sintering the component to produce the environmental barrier coating (12) having at least the bond coat layer (14), a transition layer (16) and any one or more of an outer layer (20) or a compliant layer (18) wherein during sintering a reaction between the primary materials and the sintering aid results in the transition layer comprising a porosity of from 0% to about 15% by volume of the transition layer, the outer layer comprising a porosity of from 0% to about 30% by volume of the outer layer, and the compliant layer comprising a porosity of from about 0% to about 30% by volume of the compliant layer.
