"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.
The best tape that works on stucco is the kind made explicitly for stucco surfaces. Look for tape that specifies stucco, masonry, or cement installations. The adhesive usually needs to be thicker and more durable to remain stuck to these rough surfaces.
The average cost to repair stucco is about $1,600, with projects ranging from $250 for minor fixes to $6,700 for extensive work. The price is often calculated per square foot, typically costing between $60 and $120. Some professionals may charge an hourly rate of $40 to $50. The final cost depends on the extent of the damage, the type of stucco, your home's location, and whether there is underlying damage that also needs to be addressed.
Costs for specific repairs vary:
Cracks: $8–$20 per square foot
Holes: $250–$450 per hole
Water damage: $30–$50 per square foot
Chimney repair: $60–$120 per square foot
Recoating: $4–$5 per square foot
While you may be able to patch small cracks yourself, it is recommended to call a professional for major repairs to ensure the job is done correctly.
It’s not advisable to use CLR on stucco. CLR is a powerful acidic cleaner designed for removing tough mineral stains. Stucco is a porous material commonly made of cement, lime, and sand. The acidic nature of CLR can potentially damage or etch the stucco surface, leading to discoloration or deterioration.
It is best to use cleaning solutions specifically formulated for stucco or mild household cleaners mixed with water to clean stucco siding. Always test any cleaning product in a small, inconspicuous area before applying it to the entire stucco surface.
While your stucco repair professional can diagnose exactly what needs repair, it can be helpful to know what to look out for in the early stages to avoid significant reconstruction. Some common stucco repairs include:
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.
