"Kitchen ceiling was completed first. No mold was found and kitchen ceiling was repaired including swirl patterned ceiling. bathroom ceiling + walls repaired/replaced. A totally unrelated hole in the dry wall was also repaired at no additional cost. Again they had a complete clean up. Done in a timely and efficient manner. The company also requested a 07:30 start. I requested an 08:00 start and they waited an addition 15 mins which was needed. I plan to hire them again."

"ProTEK did external painting of our house. They were quick, precise and kept to our agreed on timeline despite rain challenges. We are so pleased with their work. There were a couple of very minor touchups needed and the painter came back the next day and went out of her way to make sure we were happy with her work. I would definitely use the again."

Kirby Masonry specializes in new construction, repairs, and renovation of masonry projects including but not limited to chimneys, re-pointing, retaining walls, patios, walkways, fireplaces, steps, porches, decks, and brick veneering. The company provides all types of masonry using brick, concrete, block, stone, and stucco, and it offers its services to residential, commercial, and industrial customers. We have 5-6 workers. Pay by check deposit when start and pay remaining when job complete.

"Jason Kirby and crew did an excellent job, with fine craftsmanship and attention to detail. This job was to replace a stucco and half timber exterior wall on a historic 1920's English Tudor, so that it matched the detailing and craftsmanship to the rest of the house. Jason assembled a highly skilled team. They competed the job on schedule, Jason communicated regularly about status and next steps, and I couldn't be happier with the result (looks original to the house). Jason's fees are very reasonable, and I would recommend him for any job involving masonry, having worked with him in the past on brickwork as well."

Stucco questions, answered by experts

Inspect annually for cracks, clean with a mild detergent, and reseal or repaint as needed to preserve appearance.

If you're installing stucco in a climate with extreme weather, synthetic stucco may be the only viable option, as it lasts longer, is less prone to cracking, and resists moisture better. Traditional stucco is a suitable option in hot climates where moisture and rainfall are less common, so it’s a good option for affordability both up front and over time in these areas.

Whether or not it’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’t have any of the required materials, buying a pre-made option will be cheaper and require far less work to set up—between just $300 and $1,000 for the best versions.

Yes, using natural additives and methods that lower impact.

Stucco is very challenging to DIY, so it’s always best to leave the work to professional stucco contractors. The same recommendation applies to painting a stucco house, which should be left in the reliable hands of a professional exterior painter. Inexperienced DIYers can make several critical mistakes during stucco application, such as:

  • Failing to apply sufficiently thick layers for longevity and water resistance

  • Uneven application

  • Uneven texture across the exterior

  • Mixing the stucco improperly, leaving a weak structure

  • Failing to texture properly in between coats, leading to cracking and chipping
