"Best contractor I have ever used. Anything I ever need help with in my house, I will call Plumas Painting. Not just painting, pretty much anything. If he says he can’t do it then I’ll search for a new contractor for that job. They worked so fast, and their work was flawless. Bathroom is absolutely beautiful. Used floor protection. The whole crew was always humble and polite and incredibly hardworking. I’m torn writing this review because selfishlessly I don’t want anyone else to know about our hidden gem contractor. Otherwise, Julio and his crew might not have time for our next project. I’m giving this review genuinely though because it is the right thing to do, and I truly believe Julio is great guy, thoughtful in his renovations, and he and his crew are straight artisans when it comes to finish work."

Stucco questions, answered by experts
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.
Yes, you can apply stucco directly over brick, and the rough texture of the brick should be enough for the stucco to adhere to, even without a binding agent. Just be sure to clean the brick thoroughly before stuccoing, and allow 72 hours for the first coat of stucco to dry, even if it feels dry to the touch. The thicker portions that fill in the mortar joints will cure more slowly than the thinner portions over the brick faces.
Installing stucco over brick can add longevity and durability to your siding while protecting it from deterioration due to exposure to the elements. However, stucco over brick does have a few downsides. You’ll spend more time and money on maintenance and repairs, and your siding may be more susceptible to cracking.
Quikrete will set without mixing. The process of pouring dry concrete into your concrete form and then adding water is called dry pouring. While this method makes pouring concrete simpler and easier, it reduces its strength and durability. It can be a viable option for small, decorative concrete pavers for walkways or for setting fence posts, but it’s not ideal for pouring slabs that will bear any significant amount of weight.
German schmear is a durable brick masonry coating. It should last at least a decade or two without flaking or fading, even with minimal maintenance. This makes it an economical option compared to the cost of painting your house exterior, which usually needs to be repainted every five to 10 years to keep it looking its best—thus costing more over the same time period.
