The Stucco Painting & Repair Process
There are quite a few steps that go into a professional stucco painting service. Below are your general expectations.
- Repairs: Cracks appear due to the gradual shifting of your building and the seasonal weather patterns. Cracking can also be caused by the improper fitting of lath and an incorrect mixture of stucco. Our painting experts can evaluate the different kinds of cracks and identify their cause. We repair all cracks in the stucco surfaces, ensuring greater stability.
- Replacing Stucco: Sometimes, repair techniques are not enough to fix your stucco problem and your need remediation. One of the most common problems with stucco siding is water damage. If it’s left untreated, there is a high risk that mold will develop. If the stucco is damaged, we assess the functional flaws and replace it.
- Start Priming: The main reason you want to use primer on your stucco is that it covers the sites of your repairs, leaving a smooth finish. The last thing you want is for the stucco to absorb moisture from the coating. We seal the cured stucco with elastomeric/waterproof primer to create a uniform surface for applying a coating.
- Complete Painting Service: Apart from the fact that painting your stucco makes it look better, paint also helps protect the stucco from rain, pollution, and mold. It also helps to preserve stucco and prevent cracking and crumbling. We want you to enjoy your stucco for years to come. We apply a coat of waterproof paint which will expand and contract to provide superior protection.
