"Identified areas that had water damage and removed and replaced including wood. Resurfaced all remaining stucco surface. Also repaired and resurfaced stucco on chimney. Team was effecient, clean, and finished on time. Fair and reasonable pricing, finished stucco looks amazing. No hidden extra costs!"
"Ricky and Daniel did a phenomenal job repainting the interior of our house and cabinets. They are punctual and professional, and work very efficiently. We're very happy with the work and are going to have them do the exterior as well! We highly recommend them."
"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."
"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."
The average cost to repair stucco is about $1,600, with projects ranging from $250 for minor fixes to $6,700 for extensive work. The price is often calculated per square foot, typically costing between $60 and $120. Some professionals may charge an hourly rate of $40 to $50. The final cost depends on the extent of the damage, the type of stucco, your home's location, and whether there is underlying damage that also needs to be addressed.
Costs for specific repairs vary:
Cracks: $8–$20 per square foot
Holes: $250–$450 per hole
Water damage: $30–$50 per square foot
Chimney repair: $60–$120 per square foot
Recoating: $4–$5 per square foot
While you may be able to patch small cracks yourself, it is recommended to call a professional for major repairs to ensure the job is done correctly.
Solid, unpainted stucco shouldn’t suffer damage from dots of glue used for this task. If the stucco is dirty, you may notice slight marks when you heat and peel the glue away, but these aren’t permanent.
However, not all stucco walls are solid stucco. Some are “faux” stucco with a foam backing. This kind of stucco veneer is more susceptible to damage, including damage from hot glue. We don’t suggest attaching anything to these kinds of stucco walls, so make sure you check the stucco type before starting this project.
Hiring a professional for stucco repair ensures accurate diagnosis and application of appropriate techniques to prevent further damage. They deliver seamless results that maintain aesthetic appeal and prolong the exterior’s life.
The cost to replace the chimney crown or top is about $1,550 on average. The range varies widely depending on the size of the chimney, the materials used, accessibility, and the extent of the damage. If you suspect a problem with your chimney top, call a professional masonry contractor for an inspection.
It’s not advisable to use CLR on stucco. CLR is a powerful acidic cleaner designed for removing tough mineral stains. Stucco is a porous material commonly made of cement, lime, and sand. The acidic nature of CLR can potentially damage or etch the stucco surface, leading to discoloration or deterioration.
It is best to use cleaning solutions specifically formulated for stucco or mild household cleaners mixed with water to clean stucco siding. Always test any cleaning product in a small, inconspicuous area before applying it to the entire stucco surface.
