Straight answers

We schedule inspections within 2 business days and can often complete repairs the same week. For small cracks and patches, same-day turnaround is possible.

We sample your stucco's color, texture, and finish and mix to match. Small repairs are nearly invisible; large patches may show a faint line that fades over one season.

Settling, freeze-thaw cycles, and poor original application all cause cracks. Once we inspect, we tell you whether it's cosmetic or structural and what's needed to stop water entry.

Don't wait. Water gets behind stucco in one freeze-thaw cycle. A $200 crack repair now beats a $2,000 water damage bill later.

We inspect with tools to measure depth and check for water behind the stucco. This tells us whether it's a surface repair or needs more work.

A properly sealed crack shouldn't reopen if the underlying cause (settling, poor drainage) is addressed. We recommend gutter and grading checks as part of the estimate.

Yes. We clean the hole, prime it, fill with patching compound, and texture to match your stucco. For most damage, patching is faster and costs far less than replacement.

Patches up to 12 inches blend invisibly. Larger damage may show a seam, but we minimize it and the color will fade together over time.

Not if we address the cause—poor drainage, impact damage, or age. A good patch uses flexible primers and compounds and lasts as long as the stucco around it.

Soft or spongy patches, dark staining, or mold on or near the wall. You may smell mildew inside the house. These signs mean water is behind the stucco and the interior framing is at risk.

We remove the damaged section, dry the cavity, check the framing and flashing, repair or replace them as needed, and re-stucco. This is bigger than a simple patch and timing matters—wet wood rots fast.

Not if we find and seal the leak source. We also ensure proper drainage and ventilation so moisture doesn't re-accumulate.

Stucco color shifts with age and sun exposure. We take samples from your wall, test mixes in daylight, and apply finish coats that age-match your existing stucco over time.

Yes. We photograph your texture, replicate it during application, and feather the patch edges so the transition is invisible.

Fresh stucco is slightly lighter. Within 2–3 seasons, UV and weather age it to match your original wall. Most homeowners see a blend after 6 months.

Stucco siding is your exterior envelope. Repairs must seal water out and are more involved than paint or trim work. We treat every repair as a waterproofing project.

Cracks wider than 1/8 inch, spalling (chunks missing), or soft spots are red flags. Water is likely behind the wall—get it inspected within days, not weeks.

Yes, if the cause is fixed. We use modern primers, flexible compounds, and sealants that often outlast old stucco, especially in freeze-thaw climates like Castle Rock.

When stucco is soft across large areas, cracks are everywhere, or the wall fails water tests. Your inspector or contractor can tell you if patching will hold or if replacement is the only fix.

A full wall typically takes 5–10 days depending on size and weather. Prep, base coats, finish, and texture all need time to cure—rushing compromises the job.

We remove old stucco, inspect and repair the substrate, install new flashing, apply base coat, finish coat, texture, and color. We also seal gaps and ensure proper drainage.

Walls, soffits, arches, parapets, and trim all age and crack. South and west-facing walls weather fastest because of UV and heat. Valleys and overhangs collect water and need inspection often.

Yes. Freeze-thaw cycles, intense sun, and hail all stress stucco. Regular inspection and small repairs keep you ahead of the damage cycle.

Not safely below 50°F—stucco won't cure properly. We schedule repairs in late spring through early fall, and handle emergencies with temporary sealants.

Interior stucco doesn't need waterproofing, so we focus on finish, texture, and blending. It's faster and cheaper than exterior work, but must match your wall perfectly.

Yes. We sample the color and texture, apply thinned coats to avoid buildup, and feather edges. Indoor stucco is more forgiving than exterior because water isn't a concern.

Cost depends on patch size, texture complexity, and whether walls need priming. Small patches run less than $500; large walls may run several thousand. We quote exact prices after inspection.
