Q: Do you need a hammer drill for stucco?

• <div><p>A standard drill will work just fine if you&rsquo;re drilling small holes, and only a few of them. But anything with a diameter larger than 3/8 inch is best done with a hammer drill, since it is stronger, faster, and also makes your drill bits last longer. While you don&rsquo;t absolutely need a hammer drill for stucco, it is a worthy investment if you think you might drill more holes down the road.</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: What type of exterior paint finish is best for stucco?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain stucco?

• <div><p>Inspect annually for cracks, clean with a mild detergent, and reseal or repaint as needed to preserve appearance.</p></div>

Q: What are the alternatives to brick veneer siding?

• <div><p>The most obvious alternative to brick veneer siding is a true brick wall. However, you can also explore cost-effective alternatives to brick veneer, including <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-stone-veneer.htm">stone veneer siding</a>, engineered wood siding, and fiber cement siding.
