We deliver seamless repairs, expert texture matching, and premium protective coatings. Our thorough inspections identify all problem areas for comprehensive repair that addresses root causes, not just surface symptoms.
Licensed & Fully Insured Perfect Texture Matching Elastomeric Coatings 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed 
Effective stucco repair requires matching the existing texture and finish for invisible results. Our systematic approach ensures seamless repairs that last.
We begin by removing all loose, damaged, or deteriorated stucco down to sound substrate. The exposed area is cleaned, and any underlying damage to lath, moisture barriers, or sheathing is repaired. Our thorough inspections identify all problem areas.
All loose, damaged, or deteriorated stucco is removed down to sound substrate. The exposed area is cleaned, and any underlying damage to lath, moisture barriers, or sheathing is repaired before new stucco application.
New stucco is applied in proper layers—scratch coat, brown coat, and finish coat for larger repairs. Each layer must cure appropriately before the next is applied to ensure structural integrity and lasting adhesion.
Our skilled applicators match the surrounding texture using the same tools and techniques used in the original application, whether your stucco has a smooth, sand, dash, lace, or custom texture pattern.
For hairline cracks, we use flexible patching compounds and elastomeric fillers that bridge the crack while allowing for continued expansion and contraction without future cracking.
After repairs cure fully, we prime and paint the repaired areas to blend seamlessly with the surrounding stucco surface. We can apply standard paint or premium elastomeric coatings.
Southern California's climate creates specific challenges for stucco exteriors. We handle all common stucco issues with expert precision.
Hairline cracks develop as stucco expands and contracts with temperature changes. Larger cracks may indicate settling, structural movement, or improper original installation. We repair both with appropriate techniques for lasting results.
Water intrusion through cracks leads to staining, efflorescence (white salt deposits), and potentially serious moisture damage behind the stucco. Failed caulking and improper flashing create vulnerable areas we identify and repair.
Delamination occurs when stucco separates from the underlying substrate, creating hollow areas that eventually crumble and fall away. We remove compromised material and rebuild with proper bonding.
Impact damage from landscaping equipment, vehicles, or weather events creates localized damage that needs prompt repair to prevent moisture infiltration and expansion of damaged areas.
Stucco deteriorates around windows, doors, and roof lines where water runoff concentrates. Age-related wear creates vulnerable areas that allow moisture behind the stucco system requiring comprehensive repair.
White salt deposits (efflorescence) indicate water moving through the stucco system. We address the moisture source, not just the visible symptoms, for complete resolution.
Elastomeric coatings are the premium choice for protecting stucco exteriors in Southern California. These thick, flexible coatings stretch up to 300-500% to bridge existing hairline cracks and accommodate future movement without cracking. They create a waterproof barrier that prevents moisture infiltration while remaining breathable to allow trapped moisture to escape.
Elastomeric coatings are particularly recommended for stucco homes showing hairline cracks, coastal properties exposed to salt air and moisture, homes with previous water staining or efflorescence, Spanish and Mediterranean architecture common in our area, and properties requiring maximum weather protection.
Applied at 10-15 mils thickness compared to 3-4 mils for standard paint, elastomeric coatings provide dramatically superior protection and typically last 10-15 years, significantly longer than standard exterior paint.
Professional stucco repair requires precise texture matching for invisible results. Our skilled applicators can match virtually any stucco texture including smooth, sand, dash, skip trowel, lace, and custom patterns. We practice the texture match before applying to ensure repairs blend seamlessly with surrounding surfaces.
DIY stucco repairs often address surface symptoms without fixing underlying problems, leading to repeat failures. We identify and address root causes—whether moisture intrusion, structural movement, or improper original installation—so repairs last and protect your investment long-term.
Professional elastomeric coatings last 10-15 years compared to 5-7 years for standard paint. While the initial cost is higher, the extended lifespan and superior weather protection make elastomeric coatings an excellent long-term investment that saves money over time.
