Q: Can stucco be installed over existing siding?

• <div><p>Yes, stucco can be installed over existing siding, but some contractors wouldn&rsquo;t recommend it. Putting stucco over other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-and-cons-different-house-siding.htm">types of siding</a> requires careful consideration and proper preparation. Stucco is regularly added over brick and wood siding; however, some of the biggest factors affecting stucco installation include the condition of the existing siding and whether it&rsquo;s strong enough to hold the weight of the stucco. If stucco is added to another type of siding, the weight can cause it to crack, making it susceptible to moisture, water damage, and mold.</p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between stucco repair and stucco remediation?

• <div><p>Stucco repair can best be described as a patch. It involves identifying the problem and fixing that specific damage with additional stucco. If no mold infiltration or an underlying leak is causing the damage, repair is most likely all you need. </p><p>Remediation, on the other hand, involves removing the existing siding, fixing the underlying cause of the damage, and then reapplying stucco siding for that wall. It&rsquo;s a more permanent fix that takes longer to complete and, hence, comes with a steeper price tag than repair.</p></div>

Q: How do project specifics influence the expense of installing traditional stucco?

• <div><p>Costs depend on project size, material quality, and additional services like color matching or texture customization.</p></div>

Q: Who does stucco for homes?

• <div><p>Many general contractors can handle adding stucco siding, but it&rsquo;s best to hire a local stucco contractor as you&rsquo;re more likely to get a clean finish on your stucco siding that maximizes curb appeal. Stucco can be a challenging material to work with, so hiring a professional contractor who has years of experience and specializes in stucco application is advisable. Compare price quotes from at least three stucco contractors in your area to find the right pro for your task.</p></div>

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>

Mohamed was a pleasure to work with as well as his team. They were professional and very good at their craft. They also were tidy and neat at the end of everyday and at the end of the job. I highly recommend Rahmann Construction. Ellen
