"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.

"I am extremely pleased with the stucco job that was done on my home. The workers were very professional and courteous. The entire two-story home was completed in two days. The crew also cleaned up the area around my home. Excellent job! I have already referred Lilian Touch Restoration to my friends!"

"Tom Fortune is excellent. More than a year after Fortune Restoration painted the interior of my house, I discovered a water leak in my stucco dining room ceiling. I called Tom on his personal cell phone number that he gave me, asking for help. Without hesitation, Tom sent his crew to my house to scrap, plaster and repaint the damaged area FREE OF CHARGE. This is just incredible service and dedication to a customer. A job well done."

"If you need any Stucco work done, this is the company to do the job. Sergio was professional and a pleasure to work with throughout the experience from initial estimate through the completion of the job. This was a difficult job, and the result was incredible, and the cost more than fair. Sergio is one of the most ethical contractors I have ever had the pleasure to work with."

"JJ Stucco did a fantastic job cleaning, repairing some masonry and trim, replacing gutters, and painting the entire exterior of our 100 year-old brick bungalow. Reasonably priced, a pleasure to communicate and work with, and completed the job in timely fashion. Highly recommended."

Stucco questions, answered by experts

One of the most significant downsides to stucco is the installation cost, which is higher than that of many other siding options because getting it to look clean and professional is a labor-intensive process. Stucco can also absorb water, making it an unsuitable option for siding in areas that see excessive rainfall. Finally, stucco can crack and chip, especially in extreme weather, and repairs are not only challenging and require help from a professional who does stucco, but can get expensive.

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.

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 average cost of stucco siding is $5,400, ranging from $2,200 to $8,840. Stucco is worth the investment, provided you have the work done by a professional. Not only is stucco an attractive and durable siding material that boosts your home’s curb appeal, but it’s also more energy-efficient than most other siding options, it’s fire-resistant, water-resistant, and more affordable to repair down the road.

Yes, you can apply the stucco yourself, but it is a time- and labor-intensive project, especially on the exterior of a whole house. DIY stucco is better suited for repairing stucco siding or siding a smaller building, such as a shed or garage. Since most of the cost of stucco siding goes to labor, you can cut down significantly on the total if you’re up for the challenge.
