"Joe's work is phenomenal. When we first reached out to him, was responsive and at our home within days for an estimate. He told us as soon as the weather warmed up, we'd be at the top of his list. Sure enough, his crew arrived and took care of everything. We hardly even knew they were here. Hopefully we don't have to have our stucco repaired again, but if we do, Joe's our guy. I highly recommend.

"EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT! I cannot tell you how pleased my husband and I are with the quality of the work from Garcias Repairs. Our problem was a lot of loose vinyl siding on our two-story home that we were fearful of blowing away. Dario Garcia and Jose were very thorough in their assessment of our project, making certain that the wood underneath the siding was in good condition before the repair, which it was. It was evident from this assessment that they took pride in what they do. They then gave us a fair estimate for the repair. Their attention to detail left our home in better condition, and we could be happier. They did a beautiful job. Because we were so happy with the work they did on our house, we hired them to do some vinyl repair on my sister's home. Results again, were excellent. It is refreshing to come across contractors that are so HONEST. My husband and I recommend GARCIA'S REPAIRS highly."

"Excellent all around. From the initial planning phases, until the final day of work, we were extremely satisfied with all aspects of Fortune’s work. Tom was a great communicator, always available, and would check in to make sure things were going well. The entire work crew, including Danny who oversaw the day-in-day-out aspects of the project, were friendly, approachable, and extremely professional. Even our neighbors commented about how gracious the crew was. Our project was fairly large, including window/door replacement, major stucco repair, but Fortune was skilled and knowledgeable to take care of everything, without the need for subcontractors. We’re very satisfied with the end result and cannot give any higher recommendation for Fortune Restoration."

"We hired Castino for interior/exterior painting, and for carpet cleaning. Work was done on time and on budget. We subsequently had some water in our basement from an air conditioner issue. Castino came immediately and dried everything out and put it back in shape. I would particularly like to compliment John (restoration) and Paco (carpet) for being prompt, professional, and pleasant to work with."

Stucco questions, answered by experts

Solid, unpainted stucco shouldn’t suffer damage from dots of glue used for this task. If the stucco is dirty, you may notice slight marks when you heat and peel the glue away, but these aren’t permanent.

However, not all stucco walls are solid stucco. Some are “faux” stucco with a foam backing. This kind of stucco veneer is more susceptible to damage, including damage from hot glue. We don’t suggest attaching anything to these kinds of stucco walls, so make sure you check the stucco type before starting this project.

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.

The best tape that works on stucco is the kind made explicitly for stucco surfaces. Look for tape that specifies stucco, masonry, or cement installations. The adhesive usually needs to be thicker and more durable to remain stuck to these rough surfaces.

Choosing between traditional and synthetic stucco depends on your specific needs, budget, and climate. Both options are durable, but synthetic stucco includes an extra layer that makes it more resistant to cracking and a better choice for climates with extreme weather. In hot, dry climates with less rainfall, traditional stucco is a suitable and more affordable option that is less likely to trap moisture. Synthetic stucco also offers more color options and requires less maintenance.

Failing to repair damaged stucco can lead to significant problems. Cracks can grow and deepen, allowing water and moisture to get behind the stucco. This moisture intrusion can cause water damage, structural issues, and mold or mildew growth. Delaying repairs will likely cost more in the long run as the damage worsens, so it's best to repair your stucco as soon as you notice any signs of damage, such as cracks, holes, or discoloration.
