"We had our chimney resurfaced with a more durable ;bird proof EIFS synthetic stucco. Fernandez stucco did a great job and the chimney looks like new. Juan was easy to work with, kept us up to date and was always responsive to questions. The crew worked hard and seemed to be a nice group of guys. Would definitely recommend Fernandez stucco to anyone needing stucco work."

"I have employed the services of Abel at Plaster Solutions multiple times over the last 4 years. He has helped me with projects both large and small. His most relevant work includes a kitchen and bath remodel, repairing exterior stucco and replacing damaged drywall. I highly recommend Abel's services. I really wish he was still in Greensboro!"
"AMAZING JOB!! Showed up on time everyday ready to work. Very respectful of being in someone's home and very careful. They spent almost an entire day putting up plastic and prepping the walls and areas that would be painted. Very time consuming but as a result I didn't have paint where it wasn't supposed to be. They did an excellent job taking down wallpaper that had been up for over 20 years and did not damage the walls. I was most thrilled with my oak cabinets in the kitchen. I had been warned not to try to paint them but Rafael (owner) and I researched different techniques which they implemented and the cabinets look fantastic. I feel like I have a new house. Rafael was easily accessible by text, phone, e-mail and very responsive. He stopped by almost every day to make sure I was pleased. I would definitely recommend Hi-Lite Paints for interior or exterior work."
"Arturo is the owner. he is great to work with. he is very careful to make sure things are the way it should be. He sees possible problems and and make sure to correct it right away. He does great work."
To maintain stucco, inspect it annually for cracks and clean the surface with a mild detergent. Seal any cracks promptly to prevent water infiltration, and reseal or repaint as needed to preserve its appearance.
DIY is possible for small cracks or patches. Professional services ensure proper texture and color matching.
If contractors discover water damage, rot, or mold beneath the stucco, additional repairs will be necessary. These repairs can increase your total project cost and timeline, but addressing them promptly is essential for your home’s structural integrity. Ignoring hidden damage can lead to more severe issues and higher costs in the future.
Stucco repair can best be described as a patch. It involves identifying the problem and fixing that specific damage with additional stucco. If no mold infiltration or an underlying leak is causing the damage, repair is most likely all you need.
Remediation, on the other hand, involves removing the existing siding, fixing the underlying cause of the damage, and then reapplying stucco siding for that wall. It’s a more permanent fix that takes longer to complete and, hence, comes with a steeper price tag than repair.
Many general contractors can handle adding stucco siding, but it’s best to hire a local stucco contractor as you’re more likely to get a clean finish on your stucco siding that maximizes curb appeal. Stucco can be a challenging material to work with, so hiring a professional contractor who has years of experience and specializes in stucco application is advisable. Compare price quotes from at least three stucco contractors in your area to find the right pro for your task.
