Why does stucco crack?
Some hairline cracking is normal as a house settles, but recurring or widening cracks usually mean a control-joint or moisture problem behind the finish. We diagnose the cause rather than just skinning over it.

Stucco Installation & Repair
Stucco is only as good as what sits behind it. A lasting stucco wall is a system — weather barrier, lath, and correctly cured coats — not just a finish troweled on. We build the whole assembly.
Cracking, staining, and moisture intrusion usually trace back to the layers you can’t see: a missing or lapped-wrong weather barrier, poor flashing at windows, or coats applied too fast. We install stucco as a complete assembly so it sheds water and ages evenly.
We handle full re-stucco of an existing home, stucco for additions that needs to match the original texture, and targeted repairs where damage is localized. Color and texture matching is part of the work, not an afterthought.

FAQ
Stucco questions
Can you match stucco on a repair or addition?
Yes. Texture and color matching is part of how we approach repairs and additions so the new work blends with the existing walls.
How long does re-stucco take?
It depends on the size of the home and weather, since coats need time to cure. We provide a schedule that accounts for proper curing rather than rushing the finish.
