"I was really hoping not to have to resort to writing a poor review. But since Jaime is no longe responding to me to come to a resolution, I feel it necessary to save the next person some trouble. We hired Jaime and his team for a stucco repair. Initially Jaime seemed great. Responsive, punctual, and provided a fair price. He and his team completed the project in a timely manner, but the only way I can describe it is sloppy. The stucco job itself is okay, until you get to the edging around the trim. It is so so messy. They actually put stucco on the trim of one of our windows so we will need to have that scraped before we can paint our trim. Then there’s the mess they left. They pressure washed the house before starting the project and left behind stucco and paint chips. And I mean everywhere. My husband and I have spent 6+ hours cleaning up their mess. There is still stucco covering the ground around the entire house. We have plants and rocks that are completely covered in stucco that will all need to be replaced. Jaime and his team also left behind garbage from their lunches and a pretty horrible surprise behind our back shed. The night they finished the project I found our dogs behind the shed (where they never go) sniffing a pile of human feces including all the napkins used. Flat out disrespectful and unprofessional. So my advice would be to go with another company. I’ve seen good reviews and hopefully this was a one off for Jaime, but I am highly unsatisfied with the work they did and their lack of communication to come to a solution. Save your money."

Stucco is very challenging to DIY, so it’s always best to leave the work to professional stucco contractors. The same recommendation applies to painting a stucco house, which should be left in the reliable hands of a professional exterior painter.
Inexperienced DIYers can make several critical mistakes during stucco application, such as:
Failing to apply sufficiently thick layers for longevity and water resistance
Uneven application
Uneven texture across the exterior
Mixing the stucco improperly, leaving a weak structure
Failing to texture properly in between coats, leading to cracking and chipping
Redesigning your home's exterior is closely related to the price of remodeling its exterior. Redesigning may include anything from reshaping the entire home to simply updating the materials that cover and protect it. Small upgrades can cost as little as a couple thousand dollars, while whole-home redesigns can total over $100,000. However, the average that homeowners spend on exterior redesigns is between $5,000 and $30,000.
The curing time for stucco typically takes several weeks to fully complete. During the curing process, the stucco undergoes a chemical reaction and gradually hardens. It's important to note that curing is different from drying. While the surface of the stucco may dry relatively quickly within a few hours or days, the curing process continues beneath the surface, strengthening and solidifying the stucco.
It's best to avoid excessive moisture exposure during the curing period, as it can impede the curing process. The exact curing time can vary based on factors such as temperature, humidity, and the specific stucco mixture used.
Inspect annually for cracks, clean with a mild detergent, and reseal or repaint as needed to preserve appearance.
The best stucco finish depends on your aesthetic goals and personal preferences. A fine cement-based finish is a crowd favorite because it’s easy to clean and resembles a painted home. Lace finish is another popular one that can conceal imperfections thanks to its detailed lace pattern.
