Bethany Beach, DE 7/22/2022 Paint or Stain Exterior Surfaces We hired DMJ Custom Colors to clean and apply solid color stain to treated wood skirting on our beach house. Dennis spent much time with me advising me on which products would be best. He even provided a contact with a paint manufacturer and encouraged me to consult with him. This was extremely helpful. He and his men did a wonderful job, with great attention to neatness and detail. He promptly responded to ever contact and finished the job promptly. We could not be more pleased. His price was a little higher but I was willing to employ him because of his helpfulness. It was a great experience and I will use him again. 5.0 Beth M. Bridgeville, DE 7/15/2022 Paint or Stain Exterior Surfaces Dennis and his crew did a fantastic job on my exterior house painting. I have a cedar shake house and I was worried how good of a job a company could do. With DMJ Custom Colors Painting my house was in excellent hands. They sealed the windows and doors, painted my chimney, and even replaced a whole end side of shakes that were rotting. Of course upon my approval, their communication was definitely professional I highly recommend Dennis and his crew at DMJ for any painting project you have. My house looks wonderful!"

"We originally set up a meeting with James Parker Contracting (JPC) about our request. Then we had a change in our needs....then we changed back. Finally, due to hospital and rehab conflicts around Christmas/New Years we asked JPC to contact us after the new Year. JCP contacted me after the holidays but I was having Rehab for my prosthetics. Now that Rehab is (finally) over, JCP contacted me again and I will respond to his query tomorrow, Monday. We are still uncertain if/or when we would do the original project I'd called about. I feel that even is we never proceed (or find someone else) that JCP was persistent with reaching out to our requests (and changes). Therefore, I would definitely contact him for future work due to his persistence in helping me reach a conclusion."

Stucco questions, answered by experts

Properly installed and maintained stucco can last 50 to 100 years, making it one of the longest-lasting siding materials available. This durable material is known for its durability, and as long as you clean and waterproof it regularly and promptly repair any damage, it’ll protect your home for decades to come. 

When cleaning stucco siding, it is recommended to use a pressure washer with a psi (pounds per square inch) between 1,500 and 2,000. This range provides sufficient power to remove dirt and grime without causing damage to the stucco surface. It's important to avoid using excessive psi as it can chip or crack the stucco. 

Using a wider spray nozzle and keeping a safe distance of about seven to 10 feet from the siding helps ensure a gentle and effective cleaning process. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines and adjust the psi accordingly based on the condition of your stucco and the specific requirements of your pressure washer.

You can use small bits that are up to 3/8 inch in diameter, or larger bits that are 1/2 inch or more in diameter. Make sure the bits you use are coated with carbide or diamond; this information is usually visible on the package. You can also use hole saw bits to drill into stucco.

To repair damaged exterior stucco, you’ll first remove all loose and crumbling material from the damaged area. You then need to thoroughly clean the area and dampen it to ensure proper bonding. After that, you’ll apply a bonding agent to the repair area, then apply new stucco in layers, allowing for curing time between each layer. The final coat should be textured to match the surrounding stucco pattern as closely as possible. Once fully cured, the repaired area can be painted to match the rest of the wall if needed.

Neutral colors like white, tan, beige, and light brown are the most popular stucco colors. Natural stucco has a grayish color due to the high concentration of Portland cement in the material, but most homeowners have their contractors add pigments to create a more inviting appearance. Stucco is most popular in hotter climates, where it provides ample insulation to regulate interior temperatures and keep the solar heat out. Since lighter colors reflect more sunlight, lighter stucco is more prevalent.
