"I hired Gavin Plastering to re-plaster the inside of our living room, hall, kitchen and master bedroom in smooth veneer plaster. The work was impeccable, and our home now has a beautiful, modern and updated look. I love it! We were in a tight timeline, but Dean and his team ensured everything was completed on time. They were so professional, dependable and knowledgable, but most importantly they truly are masters of their craft, and this shows in their work. I highly recommend them!"

"I shopped around with other window and stucco/paint contractors before I chose Approved Contractor. Justin gave me a very detailed quote and worked with me to help me decide and define exactly what I wanted. He convinced me to go with the elastomeric coating over doing a re-stucco job because of its benefits of heat reflection, waterproofing, and it was basically the same price when you include the painting of all the eaves and trim on the house. I received a very fair price for each of the items and services, so decided to go with him for my entire home improvement project. Everything went quite smoothly despite delays of materials from suppliers due to COVID. Justin kept me informed as to progress of the manufacture and delivery of the windows, and was very responsive to my questions. The subcontractors he used to perform the work were all very skilled and professional. There were quite a few different people involved because of all the different things I was having done, so it got confusing at times when someone came to the door to do the day's work. In all, it took about 1 week to install 25 windows on my 2 story house (including sliding glass door), and 1 week to do the prep and paint/coating work. A few thousand $ in extra, unexpected expenses popped up, like replacing some dry-rot wood, extra stucco work around my new front door, and extra tiles for the new roof area, but Justin offered most of those additions to the contract at cost. I also know that there are often unexpected things that happen with new construction or reconstruction that cannot be seen and bid on beforehand, so I didn't feel like I was being taken to the cleaners with the extra costs. My house looks beautiful now, and I feel I made a very good investment, and a very good decision to go with Approved Contractor, Inc."

I have done a good job for 35 years and I will do a good job for you. I have over 5000 happy customers. Trust me and trust my angleslist-google and yelp reviews. I personally guarantee a "no babysit/professional job" in every phase of our interaction-from the minute we meet until the next time we meet. I am old school with an obsession to detail. I picked up my first paint brush in 1967 at 10 years old and painted my dads front porch (battleship gray) Ha! I think thats all we had back then....but I got the pat on the back and never looked back.

"Working with ?All About Paint? to have the exterior of our home painted was a great experience. They returned phone calls immediately, gave us a very competitive quote, provided references and even helped to choose the perfect color combination. Once the work commenced, they removed the gutters, pressure washed the whole house, made repairs to the stucco in various areas, painted all exterior, wood trim, patio cover, front doors, side doors, and metal garage doors. They even went as far as removing the exterior light fixtures, and re-installing them when the work was complete. It took them a complete week to do the job. They were on-time every morning and were meticulous about masking everything, and not getting over-spray or spilling paint on anything. The house looks great, and I will definitely use them again. My neighbor was so impressed with their work, that he hired ?All About Paint? to paint his house the following week.

"Nothing but a wonderful experience! We had just purchased our house and Nir came over and and provided us with a detailed, explained and professional estimate for the exterior paint job that we wanted which we wanted to do right after we moved in. With the quick turnaround and very reasonable pricing… we signed the agreement and gave him the approval to start. His crew arrived early to our house and started the work. They professionally prepped the walls at the house, fixed many stucco parts on the walls that needed to be fixed and continued to work even after the regular working hours in order to stay on time with the completion date. The painting job was done a lot nicer that we imagined and we could not be happier with the final results. They are a truly professional team and it was a pleasure to do business with them."

"Crew was very professional and showed up on time. They were efficient and worked hard. Unfortunately, the end result was as follows: Pressure washing - They didn't cover anything. Paint chips were everywhere and even in my air conditioning unit. I'm still sweeping and shop vacuuming huge piles of them two weeks later. They returned to clean-up, but I'm still finding myself cleaning. They kept saying my lawn mower should pick it up. Photos attached. Patio Cover - They sprayed two coats of paint, but entire sections were missed. Some sections were very very lightly coated. They had to come back out for two hours to re-roll. I appreciated that they came back out but VERY disappointed that I had to go up on roof, inspect myself to get them to come out to resolve. What if I hadn't? Overspray got all over our trash cans, bushes, bbq cover, outdoor storage shed and roof. Photos attached. The shingles on the roof can't be cleaned -- power washing will remove granules and damage them, so we're stuck living with that. Stucco - Spots had to be re-repaired after I noticed that areas were missed. I had to paint the stucco myself since they were quick and missed painting sections. Front door - Front door looked good and they were flexible as we decided colors. OTHER - I asked for Dunn Edwards. They used high quality paint on front door (Evershield) use my own supplied paint for stucco and then used Spartashield for the patio cover. Normally the painters I use ask me what type of paint. I would have preferred Everyshield for the patio cover, but Spartashield is still decent. Overall, they were nice and punctual (things many contractors lack), but the quality of the work was average / below average because of the issues I described. All these painting companies sub everything out. They may have a general group of subs they use that are preferred, but in the end, it's really luck of the draw with who you get. They're all hurrying to move from one job to the next as fast as they can, so quality sometimes suffers as a result."

"Project: Repair and partially replace stucco surface of small retaining wall. Phil met with me and we discussed how to treat a short retaining wall that was losing the stucco surface after about 4 years since it was originally plastered. The wall was alowing water seepage to come thru the concrete block and lifting the original stucco finish off. Phil suggested a repair , consisting of first scraping all loose stucco off the wall and then applying an adhesive type undercoat followed by a total restucco of the wall. It was done very professionally , minimal debris, 2-day process , and it looks great. Now I just have to see how it holds up over the next 4-5 years . Highly recommend PG Plastering."

Stucco questions, answered by experts

A standard drill will work just fine if you’re drilling small holes, and only a few of them. But anything with a diameter larger than 3/8 inch is best done with a hammer drill, since it is stronger, faster, and also makes your drill bits last longer. While you don’t absolutely need a hammer drill for stucco, it is a worthy investment if you think you might drill more holes down the road.

One of the most significant downsides to stucco is the installation cost, which is higher than that of many other siding options because getting it to look clean and professional is a labor-intensive process. Stucco can also absorb water, making it an unsuitable option for siding in areas that see excessive rainfall. Finally, stucco can crack and chip, especially in extreme weather, and repairs are not only challenging and require help from a professional who does stucco, but can get expensive.

Yes, professionals can color-match new or repaired stucco to existing finishes to ensure a seamless and uniform appearance. While most providers offer this service, it is recommended to confirm with them beforehand.

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.

The average cost to repair stucco is about $1,600, with projects ranging from $250 for minor fixes to $6,700 for extensive work. The price is often calculated per square foot, typically costing between $60 and $120. Some professionals may charge an hourly rate of $40 to $50. The final cost depends on the extent of the damage, the type of stucco, your home's location, and whether there is underlying damage that also needs to be addressed.

Costs for specific repairs vary:

  • Cracks: $8–$20 per square foot

  • Holes: $250–$450 per hole

  • Water damage: $30–$50 per square foot

  • Chimney repair: $60–$120 per square foot

  • Recoating: $4–$5 per square foot

While you may be able to patch small cracks yourself, it is recommended to call a professional for major repairs to ensure the job is done correctly.
