"I was truly impressed with the quick response and turn around time in which my project was completed. I found Tristan to be very professional and informative about the work that needed to be done. I explained to him what I wanted done and he did exactly that without trying to sell me something more than I needed. I would highly recommend Carrington Roofing to anyone who is in need of roofing and gutter repair."

"Excellent painting of walls and repair of cracks in ceiling and one water damaged wall. Crew Georg and Toto very considerate and cleaned up after themselves. Very efficient. Some difficulty/misunderstanding about work to be done, but the owner made it right. I appreciate that very much. Thank you Castino!"

"I have a small crack in my hybrid stucco.  I was nervous about it so I
called Aspire.  Peter came out that same day and rather than making up
some work for himself, he said not to worry about it, "don't waste time
or money." I thought that was so honorable of him.  I really appreciated
that honesty.  I would definitely have him back out to do work because I
really trust him.

Stucco FAQs, answered by experts

When hiring for your project, look for licensed, insured contractors with experience in stucco removal. Ask them for references, review their past stucco removal projects, and request detailed, written estimates. A reputable stucco removal contractor will explain the entire process, outline all costs, and ensure proper disposal and compliance with local codes.

Stucco will dry in two to three days, but you should wait one to two months to allow it to cure fully before you paint it. The curing process is slow, but leaving the material exposed to air and natural moisture will help it reach its maximum strength. If you live in a hot, arid climate, wait a month before painting. Wait two months before painting if you live in a more moderate or wet climate.

German schmear is a durable brick masonry coating. It should last at least a decade or two without flaking or fading, even with minimal maintenance. This makes it an economical option compared to the cost of painting your house exterior, which usually needs to be repainted every five to 10 years to keep it looking its best—thus costing more over the same time period.

The length of time shouldn’t matter much if you stick with lightweight Christmas lights and similar decorations. Those shouldn’t pose risks to your stucco. You should avoid attaching anything to your stucco that could fall because it’s too heavy, which may take part of the stucco with it. Some methods, like using double-sided tape or adhesive hooks, will naturally wear out over time and lead to falling lights, so don’t expect to leave these lights up year-round.

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.
