IDENTIFYING STUCCO ISSUES

There are a few distinct warning signs that can indicate when it is time for yout stucco to be remediated.

Signs of age & damage:

Cracked Stucco

STUCCO CRACKS

Numerous cracks could be more than an aesthetic issue. If you have large cracks over a quarter inch wide, this can indicate a structural problem.

Stained Stucco

Stucco Stains

Stucco stains can require a simple cleaning, or they can indicate severe problems, including water damage and mold. Don't just paint over stains and mask the condition. You need to address the underlying problems first.

Crumbling Stucco

Stucco Crumbles

Crumbling stucco could be due to age, stress, pest infestations, settling, water damage, vibrations, impact accidents, and even improper stucco installation. The problem can worsen and water can seep inside.

Stucco Dent

STUCCO INDENTATIONS

Indentations or soft spots in your home’s stucco could indicitate water damage lurking beneath the plaster. Water damage can require extensive structural repairs.

Stucco Moss

Stucco Moss

It’s essential to address the moisture problem that creates such an inviting space for moss. Any steps that you can take to minimize the moisture at the walls and prevent water from soaking the area is beneficial.

Stucco Damage

Impact Damage

Impact damage can stem from lawnmowers, weed whackers, kids, and woodpeckers (and more). If your stucco has cracks, stains, moss, crumbles, indentations, soft spots, or doesn’t look right, it’s a good idea to have the stucco inspected before further damage occurs.

PREVENTS ADDITIONAL ISSUES

With remediation, the problems are solved at the source. If moisture penetrates the exterior, it will keep coming back if only "repaired".

Stucco serves as a defense against moisture intrusion and professional remediation can properly protect the rest of your home from damage for a long period of time.

quality repair materials

Most of the materials that a homeowner will have access to at any local hardware store will not be sufficient for a long term repair.

NECESSARY TOOLS FOR THE JOB

Stucco remediation can be done quickly and efficiently when skilled installers with their own specialized equipment and tools are on the job.

Our Evaluation Process

1. IDENTIFYING THE PROBLEM

Oue remediation process begins with a thorough check of your stucco walls to determine if there are any underlying issues.

Areas around windows are some of the most common spots to find evidence of moisture.

2. REMOVING ALL DAMAGED STUCCO PIECES

Once it is confirmed that your home has a stucco leak or damage, our team will begin removing the damaged stucco to get to the area underneath. Once the outer layers are removed, the internal damage can be properly repaired.

3. ADDRESSING UNDERLYING PROBLEMS LIKE MOLD AND WOOD ROT

At this point we can begin the stucco remediation process, including mold remediation and replacing wet insulation that is a breeding ground for new mold growth.

4. REPAIRING ISSUES WITH WINDOWS, DOORS & OTHER FEATURES

A widespread stucco leak can also destroy the framing of doors or windows, too. It’s highly-efficient and cost-effective to make those improvements since the house is already stripped down and prepped for work.

5. RE-WRAP AND STUCCO YOUR HOME, SEALING IT OFF FROM MOISTURE

Our team will will re-wrap your house and install brand new stucco siding that won’t have any of the old problems. If your stucco is old and crumbling or showing signs of mold and moisture, it’s time to remediate.
