Common Warning Signs of Stucco Damage

Posted on February 25, 2021

Stucco residences are quite popular in our local Northern Arizona communities. This Mediterranean style exterior is known for its ability to resist fire and be extremely durable over time. Even though stucco was originally created to last for many years, it can still have its fair share of issues. Below are some of the warning signs that you may see before your home needs a stucco repair service.

Water Damage Can Create Major Headaches

If excess moisture has had the chance to get into or under your stucco siding, it can eventually come through your ceiling and walls. A few warning signs of water damage other than leaks are: cracking stucco and mold growth.

If you have spotted any of these common stucco damage warning signs, it is important that you consult with a professional about repairs as soon as possible to prevent future issues. Work with CertaPro Painters® of Northern Arizona on your next stucco repair service.

Check for Cracked Stucco

Have you noticed any cracks along your stucco siding? The majority of cracking happens from water damage. However, cracking can also occur from a faulty stucco installation. If you find any unsightly cracks starting to form along your stucco siding, our team can provide you with a professional stucco repair service in the local service area.

Don’t Forget to Inspect Your Caulking

When inspecting your stucco exterior, it is imperative that you check around your windows and door to see if your caulking is still there. Over time, caulking can begin to deteriorate or even come off. When this happens excess moisture has a greater chance of seeping into your stucco and causing costly and time consuming damages.

Watch Out for Stains and Discoloration

One of the initial warning signs of stucco damage is white streaks or brown stains appearing along your stucco siding. Usually this is caused by flashing that has either not been installed properly, or may even be missing.
