"Called Doug and left contact message per request on Angies List page. Promptly got a return call as well as an onsite visit and proposal, which came in about three days. Doug communicates very well, both by phone and email, so I felt very comfortable in giving him a try. He was avaialble to do the work within a week of my accepatnce and finished it right on schedule. Quality looks fine and pricing was competitve. Would recommend him for stucco work. Am now considering doing some concrete work."

Jose is a pleasure to work with. He communicates well, schedules a time for an inspection and completes the work as planned. We couldn't be happier.
More Detail:
We had a few areas of minor stucco damage (cracks and stucco separating from the house) that needed attention. I tried to make contact with three other contractors listed on Angie's List before reaching out to Jose. The other services either never responded or, once they did, failed to ever arrive.
Jose and his team were great. As described above, Jose did an initial inspection to estimate the cost and date for the work to be performed. He and his team arrived on time and the work done is flawless.
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
If your windows are losing efficiency from wearing out or experiencing leaks on rainy days, it may be time to consider replacing them. Window replacement costs run between $180 and $410 per window but may be on the higher end for homes with stucco siding since stucco will likely require more time and special tools for replacement.
The best way to assess that your stucco needs repair is to inspect it, both visually and physically. If you notice cracks, chips, or staining, that’s a good indication that your stucco could use some TLC by a professional. Additionally, if you touch an area that feels soft and has a little “give,” you should consider repairing it as soon as possible to avoid further damage, both to additional stucco spots and to your home’s structure.
Stucco is durable, energy-efficient, and low-maintenance, making it a popular choice for exterior finishes.
Yes, professionals can color-match new or repaired stucco to existing finishes to ensure a seamless and uniform appearance. While most providers offer this service, it is recommended to confirm with them beforehand.
