Q: What is the life expectancy of stucco?

• <div><p>One <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/stucco-pros-and-cons.htm">upside to stucco siding</a> is that it can last for 50 to 80 years, and it&rsquo;s reasonably low maintenance during that lifespan. However, you&rsquo;ll need routine maintenance to keep it looking its best, as it will crack and chip as it ages. If you live in an area that sees heavier rainfall, sealing your stucco siding every five to 10 years may be necessary.</p></div>

Q: Is stucco considered siding or cladding?

• <div><p>Stucco is considered a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cladding-types.htm">type of cladding</a> because it includes a built-in ventilation layer, a weatherproof membrane beneath that, and, often, a layer of insulation to improve building efficiency. The multiple layers of stucco&mdash;the scratch coat, the brown coat, and the finish coat&mdash;also create a more complex building membrane, so it&rsquo;s more accurate to call it cladding. However, homeowners and contractors alike refer to stucco as siding.</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: What’s the easiest way to remove stucco?

• <div><p>The easiest way to remove stucco is to use a circular saw with a diamond blade to cut small squares out, pry them off, and then cut the metal lath behind it with tin snips. It&rsquo;s possible to do everything with a hammer and a crowbar, but it will take significantly longer and will wear you out more quickly. Plus, you&rsquo;ll have a higher risk of damaging windows, hidden siding, and sheathing if you go the less precise route.</p></div>

Q: Should I choose traditional or synthetic stucco?

• <div><p>If you're installing stucco in a climate with extreme weather, synthetic stucco may be the only viable option, as it lasts longer, is less prone to cracking, and resists moisture better. Traditional stucco is a suitable option in hot climates where moisture and rainfall are less common, so it&rsquo;s a good option for affordability both up front and over time in these areas. </p></div>
