Get matched with top stucco pros in Hillcrest, IL

Q: How do project specifics influence the expense of installing traditional stucco?

• <div><p>Costs depend on project size, material quality, and additional services like color matching or texture customization.</p></div>

Q: What are siding options with longer lifespans than vinyl siding?

• <div><p>While vinyl siding's lifespan of 20 to 40 years is impressive for the cost, other siding options can actually last much longer. Stucco siding can last 50 to 80 years when properly maintained and is only a bit more expensive than vinyl. Fiber cement is similar in that it&rsquo;s a little more expensive but lasts more than twice as long. Stone and brick last the longest, often more than 100 years, but they&rsquo;re the most expensive siding materials.</p></div>

Q: What time of year is best to stucco a house?

• <div><p>Late fall is generally the best time of year for installing stucco siding. We don&rsquo;t recommend hiring a stucco pro to apply this feature when the temperatures are below freezing, so it&rsquo;s best to avoid applying stucco siding to your home during the winter. However, it&rsquo;s safe to apply in hot and colder temperatures, so any other time of year is suitable. The spring and summer are the busiest times of year for stucco siding professionals, so you could save money by doing the work in the off-season: the late fall.</p></div>

Q: Can I screw directly into stucco?

• <div><p>Yes, you can screw directly into stucco. Only do so if the item you are installing is a permanent fixture. Drill a pilot hole into the stucco using a masonry or concrete bit, then drive in the screw with a power drill or screwdriver.</p></div>

Q: Is stucco more affordable than vinyl siding?

• <div><p>No, stucco siding tends to be more expensive than vinyl siding. While the materials for stucco are less costly, the labor-intensive application process increases the total project budget. If you're comparing stucco versus vinyl siding based on cost alone, vinyl siding would be the winner there. In terms of longevity, on the other hand, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-stucco-last.htm">stucco lasts</a> for around 50 years, 10 to 30 years longer than vinyl siding, making it a better long-term investment.</p></div>
