"Hero put a roof on our house in Carrollton yesterday and we couldn't be more pleased. If you are having sticker shock at roofing prices, you must give Hero a call. They provided a system that perfectly matched our short and long term needs for a very fair price. This company is very well managed. Communication was prompt and complete and the project went exactly as planned and scheduled. Both the sales rep, Brandon, and the onsite project manager, Matt, were professional, efficient and personable. There were no games on the sales side and the work was perfectly executed. The field team was professional and efficient and provided quality work on all phases of the project. Our personal property was protected and cleanup was excellent, with the entire 45 square roof completed in a single day. We can't think of any way this project could have been better than it was. Give them a call, you will be glad you did."

Stucco questions, answered by experts

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

Stucco is durable, energy-efficient, and low-maintenance, making it a popular choice for exterior finishes.

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.

All of the components of stucco are non-combustible, so the siding material won’t ignite or spread fire to the interior of your home. However, it also expands and contracts with changes in temperature, so it will crack from long exposure to heat. Eventually, fire will spread through those cracks. Still, stucco is one of the best siding materials for fire protection and can keep you and your family safe for an hour, on average.

It’s not advisable to use CLR on stucco. CLR is a powerful acidic cleaner designed for removing tough mineral stains. Stucco is a porous material commonly made of cement, lime, and sand. The acidic nature of CLR can potentially damage or etch the stucco surface, leading to discoloration or deterioration. 

It is best to use cleaning solutions specifically formulated for stucco or mild household cleaners mixed with water to clean stucco siding. Always test any cleaning product in a small, inconspicuous area before applying it to the entire stucco surface.
