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’t recommend hiring a stucco pro to apply this feature when the temperatures are below freezing, so it’s best to avoid applying stucco siding to your home during the winter. However, it’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>

Is EIFS or stucco more expensive?

• <div><p>On average, EIFS costs more than traditional stucco, both due to its complex materials and tricky installation. You'll pay between <b>$7 and $9 per square foot</b> for traditional stucco installation and <b>$8 to $14 per square foot</b> for EIFS. Contact a local siding contractor to get an accurate estimate for EIFS or stucco installation based on your project specifications.</p></div>

Q: Do you need a hammer drill for stucco?

• <div><p>A standard drill will work just fine if you&rsquo;re drilling small holes, and only a few of them. But anything with a diameter larger than 3/8 inch is best done with a hammer drill, since it is stronger, faster, and also makes your drill bits last longer. While you don&rsquo;t absolutely need a hammer drill for stucco, it is a worthy investment if you think you might drill more holes down the road.</p></div>

Q: Is it cheaper to build a pizza oven?

• <div><p>Whether or not it&rsquo;s cheaper to build a pizza oven depends largely on what style you opt for and which tools and materials you already have. For example, having a surplus of leftover fire bricks from another DIY project will reduce the amount you need to build a new pizza oven and cut costs to boot. On the flip side, if you don&rsquo;t have any of the required materials, buying a pre-made option will be cheaper and require far less work to set up&mdash;between just <b>$300 and $1,000</b> for the best versions.</p></div>

Q: What is the Mediterranean style of architecture?

• <div><p>Mediterranean architecture comes from traditional building styles of countries on the Mediterranean Sea mixed with French, Greek, and Moroccan influences. There are three main types of Mediterranean architecture: Italian Renaissance, Spanish Revival, and modern.</p><p>Some signature components of Mediterranean architecture include red terra cotta roofs, archways, stucco siding, and metal detailing on windows. These homes often have balconies and outdoor living areas.</p></div>
