"Jose Abril and his very experienced dad and brother diagnosed and fixed a stucco leak on a window and ledge on my house. Jose’s professionalism and his family’s skill, along with an excellent price, scheduled quickly and finished the job in a day. They left the work site clean. Jose is an exceptional communicator and I would hire this business again."
"The owner personally met with the customer to talk about the job requirements and the price quote. The company was ready to start within a few days of when we accepted the bid. The crew arrived on time. All light fixtures, downspouts, etc. on the surface of the stucco were removed. A trench was dug all around the house to coat the existing stucco down to its base. Repairs and patching were done. I am a particular customer and was present during much of the work. Any occasional oversight by the crew that I observed was easily and quickly resolved. Any windows, rain barrels, etc. that needed to be protected from the stucco materials were well masked/covered. The synthetic stucco color coat was applied in a two step process....first, a hard trowel application and second, a soft trowel application. Many companies would not do both. All patching and original defects were well covered and disappeared. The synthetic coat always was sealed up against any window frame, door frame, etc. After the stucco application was completed, all lights, downspouts, etc. were reinstalled. The clean up of project trash, etc. was completed well, but not as completely as my environmental eccentricities would have desired. But given the quality and speed of the job, I was happy to do the final picky clean up stuff myself. The house now looks better than with the original, traditional, three layer stucco coating. I live quite remotely, so it was decided to use a larger crew. This saved on crew travel down time. A crew of nine was used and the entire job was completed in three days. The only significant problem that I found after the work was that the louvers of an attic fan would not open. The fan had been covered/masked, but the frame of the louvers was such that even a tiny amount of stucco residue would prevent their opening. I called the evening of the crew's last work day to report the problem. The next morning crew arrived and quickly fixed the problem before noon. Especially in New Mexico, work of this quality is seldom found. The company is located about 60 miles from our home. "

"The steel mailboxes in our community are cemented into roadside masonry pillars. Some unknown miscreant apparently ran into my mailbox (but not the post), damaging the mailbox so extensively that I had to replace it.
I purchased a larger mailbox, and contacted Sergio Verdugo to install it. I did not seek competitive bids, but just asked him to do the job.
Because the new mailbox was larger than the old one, he and his assistant George had to chisel, saw, and jackhammer the concrete pillar to enlarge the hole to house the mailbox. The concrete was hard, about 20 years old, and Sergio complained that it was the hardest concrete he had ever had to deal with.
Hours later the job was done and the mailbox was cemented into place. Unfortunately, Sergio did not check in with me to consult about placement of the new mailbox, so it ended up being inserted into the post farther than I would have liked, was slightly cockeyed, and the clean-up was not ideal (some stucco remained on the mailbox)--hence the lower score for "quality."
The cost was more than I expected it to be, but most likely that is because of the extra time and labor involved in enlarged the cavity. But I'm a newcomer to the area, and have no feeling for what things should cost.
Although I indicated I would use Sergio Verdugo's services again in the future, I will seek competitive bids next time.
"Mike and his son Matt are consummate professionals. They have done several things for us including painting our new house inside before we moved in, Repaired a crack in the roof stucco. Repaired and painted damaged wood posts on back patio. They uninstalled then reinstalled a built in microwave oven so I could thoroughly clean it. They replaced a spray hose of kitchen faucet, hung new mirrors in bathroom, trimmed closet doors after carpet was installed and repaired a front porch light. I can't remember all the things they have done right now. We are still using them to do so many things and will continue to hire them. They are knowledgeable, honest and fair. , "

"If you are looking for quality work, you need contact TUBAC BUILDERS. Luis and Jesus were very knowledgeable and did a very good job for me. My biggest thing was I needed a lot of stucco repair in my house, it looks so good I can’t tell where it was fixed. They figured out a way to fix a gate that had not worked since I’ve lived here. I mostly needed maintenance work done but I’m positive they would do good work on whatever the project you had. They were kind, courteous and always on time. Give TUBAC BUILDERS a call, you won’t regret it Juillene Hewitt"
Stucco repair can best be described as a patch. It involves identifying the problem and fixing that specific damage with additional stucco. If no mold infiltration or an underlying leak is causing the damage, repair is most likely all you need.
Remediation, on the other hand, involves removing the existing siding, fixing the underlying cause of the damage, and then reapplying stucco siding for that wall. It’s a more permanent fix that takes longer to complete and, hence, comes with a steeper price tag than repair.
German schmear is a durable brick masonry coating. It should last at least a decade or two without flaking or fading, even with minimal maintenance. This makes it an economical option compared to the cost of painting your house exterior, which usually needs to be repainted every five to 10 years to keep it looking its best—thus costing more over the same time period.
The best way to assess that your stucco needs repair is to inspect it, both visually and physically. If you notice cracks, chips, or staining, that’s a good indication that your stucco could use some TLC by a professional. Additionally, if you touch an area that feels soft and has a little “give,” you should consider repairing it as soon as possible to avoid further damage, both to additional stucco spots and to your home’s structure.
The length of time shouldn’t matter much if you stick with lightweight Christmas lights and similar decorations. Those shouldn’t pose risks to your stucco. You should avoid attaching anything to your stucco that could fall because it’s too heavy, which may take part of the stucco with it. Some methods, like using double-sided tape or adhesive hooks, will naturally wear out over time and lead to falling lights, so don’t expect to leave these lights up year-round.
Homeowners insurance may cover the cost of siding repair or replacement, but coverage depends on the cause of the damage. Most policies will cover damage from a covered event, such as a storm, wind, hail, fire, natural disaster, or other impact damage. Your policy might pay for the full or partial cost of the repair or replacement. However, damage resulting from age, general wear and tear, or neglect is typically not covered, and you should expect to pay for those repairs out of pocket. It is best to review your specific homeowners insurance policy for full details on what is covered, how to file a claim, and what documentation is required.
