Q: What happens to stucco in a fire?

• <div><p>All of the components of stucco are non-combustible, so the siding material won&rsquo;t ignite or spread fire to the interior of your home. However, it also expands and contracts with changes in temperature, so it will crack from long exposure to heat. Eventually, fire will spread through those cracks. Still, stucco is one of the best siding materials for fire protection and can keep you and your family safe for an hour, on average.</p></div>

Q: Can I screw directly into stucco?

• <div><p>Yes, you can screw directly into stucco. Only do so if the item you are installing is a permanent fixture. Drill a pilot hole into the stucco using a masonry or concrete bit, then drive in the screw with a power drill or screwdriver.</p></div>

Q: Can hot glue damage stucco permanently?

• <div><p>Solid, unpainted stucco shouldn&rsquo;t suffer damage from dots of glue used for this task. If the stucco is dirty, you may notice slight marks when you heat and peel the glue away, but these aren&rsquo;t permanent.</p><p>However, not all stucco walls are solid stucco. Some are &ldquo;faux&rdquo; stucco with a foam backing. This kind of stucco veneer is more susceptible to damage, including damage from hot glue. We don&rsquo;t suggest attaching anything to these kinds of stucco walls, so make sure you check the stucco type before starting this project.</p></div>

Q: How long does stucco last?

• <div><p>If it is applied properly, stucco is a durable material that can last between 50 and 80 years, especially with regular repair and maintenance. Things like painting the stucco every 10 years or so will help it last longer. The location of your home plays a big part in the life span of your stucco, too.</p></div>
