"I recently encountered a major stucco issue following a home inspection. Andy responded within an hour on a Friday, came out and evaluated by situation and by Tuesday the work was done! I was operating under a timeline and he made it happen. The workmanship was top notch and he was continuously communicated with me through texts messages with updates and photos of progress along the way. If you need any type of stucco repair or replacement, I highlhy recommend A and G Stucco! I would definitely secure their services again and again."
"I recently had the stucco on my home repaired, replaced, and refreshed by A.R. Stucco & Masonry, LLC, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. They did a beautiful job—everything looks clean, smooth, and like new again. Their workmanship is truly excellent, with great attention to detail. Mr. Raul and his team was also incredibly friendly, professional, and easy to work with. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was done perfectly and to my satisfaction. I last minute asked Mr. Raul to also paint the front door. He gave me options on pulling this into the project and updated the door hardware and numbers. The team even refreshed the outdoor light fixture, to match! The crew thoroughly cleaned up after themselves and graciously put the planters and outside table in place. I highly recommend A.R. Stucco & Masonry, LLC to anyone in need of high-quality stucco or masonry work."
"WOW! Father/son team Ricky & Daniel were amazing! They showed up early, always smiling, and worked to make two 30 year old houses look like new- inside and out. Walls with holes in them looked like new sheet rock! They actually delivered exactly what they promised when they promised! And when we added a large piece of furniture and a long porch to the list they smiled and got it done. Ricky & Daniel are a rarity in a world where folks seldom deliver what they promise!"
"Study Construction is a great company to work with! Very professional and detailed crew! I definitely recommend and hire them again! My house looks beautiful!!"
"Their work exceeded my expectations, very clean, professional job. Workers were very respectful and professional. Completed an entire apartment in 2 days including the ceiling and trim. Probably the best paint job I’ve ever seen, and I’ve worked with many painters before. I’d definitely hire them again if needed."
"Victor Velasquez is a true gentleman and professional! He and his crew did a superb job of wall paper removal and painting. They showed up on time and worked non-stop each day. I highly recommend Victor and I would hire him again. They are great!"
"Overall, it went very well. I was very happy that the man who did the estimate was the same man who came out and did the work. Mr. Dupre even came out to my house the Saturday before the job started and applied a sample to make sure the stain color was what I wanted. I live north of Baton Rouge and that (along with traffic) caused Mr. Dupre to be a little late some of the scheduled work days. I did not get a competitive quote because I found very few providers who do actual refinishing and the price seemed reasonable based on the amount of time needed to do the job properly. I don't know if "refacing" would have been cheaper, but I wanted to keep the wood grain pattern and I think "refacing" removes that natural look. Mr. Dupre did need to come back a few days after the job was done to touch up the polyurethane on some of the cabinets. The cabinets are more glossy than I had anticipated, but I am not going to fault Mr. Dupre for this. They look excellent in my opinion. I would definitely recommend Quality Coatings for painting and refinishing.
**Updated. I have been trying to get in touch with Mr. Dupre for two weeks now to change the finish from semi-gloss to matte. No response. Maybe he's very busy with other jobs."
Repaired stucco requires regular inspections, cleaning to prevent mold or mildew build-up, and timely minor repairs to address hairline cracks. Applying protective sealants can also enhance longevity and maintain its appearance.
Homeowners insurance may cover the cost of siding repair or replacement, but coverage depends on the cause of the damage. Most policies will cover damage from a covered event, such as a storm, wind, hail, fire, natural disaster, or other impact damage. Your policy might pay for the full or partial cost of the repair or replacement. However, damage resulting from age, general wear and tear, or neglect is typically not covered, and you should expect to pay for those repairs out of pocket. It is best to review your specific homeowners insurance policy for full details on what is covered, how to file a claim, and what documentation is required.
The best exterior paint finish for stucco is a flat or low-gloss finish. A high-gloss finish will show imperfections in the stucco and give it a candy-coated look that many homeowners don’t like. The best types of exterior paint to use on stucco are acrylic, masonry, and elastomeric. However, acrylic is recommended because it is both durable and breathable.
Homeowners insurance generally won’t cover stucco damage unless it’s caused by a covered event like a storm or fire. You’ll need to pay out of pocket for damage caused by age, wear and tear, lack of maintenance, or faulty installation. Consult your policy for the specifics of what stucco damage is covered and what isn’t.
Neutral colors like white, tan, beige, and light brown are the most popular stucco colors. Natural stucco has a grayish color due to the high concentration of Portland cement in the material, but most homeowners have their contractors add pigments to create a more inviting appearance. Stucco is most popular in hotter climates, where it provides ample insulation to regulate interior temperatures and keep the solar heat out. Since lighter colors reflect more sunlight, lighter stucco is more prevalent.
