Q: How to apply stucco to wood?

• <div><p>You can apply stucco to wood by wrapping it with grade D waterproof paper, installing trim accessories such as metal lath, control joints, weep screeds, casing beads, and expansion joints, and applying the stucco in three layers. You&rsquo;ll need a scratch coat, brown coat, and finish coat, all applied with a trowel and screeded with a darby or straight edge. Each should cure for two days before you apply the next one.</p></div>

Q: What is the most popular stucco color?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Can stucco be installed over existing siding?

• <div><p>Yes, stucco can be installed over existing siding, but some contractors wouldn&rsquo;t recommend it. Putting stucco over other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-and-cons-different-house-siding.htm">types of siding</a> requires careful consideration and proper preparation. Stucco is regularly added over brick and wood siding; however, some of the biggest factors affecting stucco installation include the condition of the existing siding and whether it&rsquo;s strong enough to hold the weight of the stucco. If stucco is added to another type of siding, the weight can cause it to crack, making it susceptible to moisture, water damage, and mold.</p></div>

Q: What are the alternatives to brick veneer siding?

• <div><p>The most obvious alternative to brick veneer siding is a true brick wall. However, you can also explore cost-effective alternatives to brick veneer, including <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-stone-veneer.htm">stone veneer siding</a>, engineered wood siding, and fiber cement siding. Hardie board is another popular option for its high quality; <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-of-hardie-board-siding.htm">Hardie board siding costs</a> <b>$17,500 </b>on average, however. Vinyl siding is a more affordable option, but it&rsquo;s significantly less durable than brick veneer. Explore the various <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-vinyl-siding.htm">types of vinyl siding</a>&mdash;and their pros and cons&mdash;before committing.</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.

Cesar & Nora showed up when the promised, on-time and provided an estimate. The cost was reasonable so we hired them to complete the work. They matched the pigment in the stucco and then complete the job. The work was stellar. Hire them? You will not be sorry!

Our handyman was Drew. He was punctual, courteous and very skilled at what he does. All of my ceiling holes were patched and stucco was matched pretty good. Since I have some physical ailments, I would definitely use them again.

Andrew Clark was the craftsman. They were always punctual and polite. They were great at the electrical work (with the exception of putting an outlet somewhere where it ended up being covered by a cabinet - We probably should have both been more communicative in terms of our kitchen design)....
