What time of year is best to stucco a house?

• <div><p>Late fall is generally the best time of year for installing stucco siding. We don’t recommend hiring a stucco pro to apply this feature when the temperatures are below freezing, so it’s best to avoid applying stucco siding to your home during the winter. However, it’s safe to apply in hot and colder temperatures, so any other time of year is suitable. The spring and summer are the busiest times of year for stucco siding professionals, so you could save money by doing the work in the off-season: the late fall.</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>

Q: How long does stucco over brick last?

• <div><p>Stucco applied over brick can last 30 to 50 years or more when correctly applied and properly maintained. Stucco&rsquo;s lifespan can be shortened by improper application, incorrectly mixed material, lack of preparation before application, and lack of maintenance. To get the most life out of your stucco siding, keep up with maintenance and repair any damage as soon as you discover it. </p></div>

Q: Do I need a permit to remove stucco siding?

• <div><p>In many areas, a permit is required to remove stucco siding, especially if structural repairs or new siding installation are involved. Check with your local building department for specific requirements and associated permit fees before starting your project. Permit fees range from $100 to $500.</p></div>
