Professional Stucco Painting Services in San Francisco

Our team of experienced painters in San Francisco have years of experience with painting and restoring stucco homes. Many of the homes in our service area have a stucco exterior and it is easy to see why. Not only is a stucco home beautiful, but it can hold its own against our hot and sunny climate. Stucco homes are known for their durability, but they will still occasionally need routine painting and maintenance services. If your home is experiencing paint fading, discoloration, or cracks along your stucco, it is time to schedule your next stucco painting service.

The Stucco Painting & Repair Process

There are quite a few steps that go into a professional stucco painting service. Below are the steps we take to ensure your complete satisfaction with our work.

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.

Stucco Damage Warning Signs

There are a few stucco damage warning signs that every homeowner should know. Check out some of the possible stucco problems below.

Water Damage: There are many stucco-related problems that can occur due to water leaks. If excess moisture has had the chance to get into or under your stucco exterior, it can eventually come through your ceiling and walls

Cracks: The majority of cracking happens from water damage. However, cracked stucco can also occur from a faulty stucco installation. If you find any unsightly cracks starting to form along your stucco siding, our experienced painting contractors can provide you with a stucco repair service.

Deterioration of Caulking: Over time, caulking can start to deteriorate or even wear off. When this happens, excess moisture has a greater chance of seeping into your stucco and causing costly and time consuming damages.

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

If your stucco home is experiencing any of these problems, don’t hesitate to reach out to our painting contractors for a stucco repair service.
