"I needed stucco repair work on an old chimney (and other spots). Grady was meticulous and thoughtful on what approaches and materials would work. Throughout the project they allocated sufficient time for each treatment to cure and inspected the work before proceeding to the next step. Grady started the project with no money down and only required ongoing payments for materials until the project was well underway. The final payment was due only after they did a final inspection. Total project cost was also below other bids."

"I recently hired Haris for roofing, siding, and window replacement, and I couldn't be happier with the results.The team was responsive and attentive from the initial consultation. The project manager addressed all my questions promptly. Their craftsmanship is exceptional. The roofing and siding installations were flawless, using high-quality materials that enhanced my home's appearance. The new windows improved energy efficiency significantly. The project was completed on schedule, and the crew maintained a clean work environment, showing great respect for my property. While they may not be the cheapest, the quality justifies the investment. Overall, my experience with Haris was excellent he is a gem he knows his job well done. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and professional home improvements."

"The gentlemen who performed the stone work did an outstanding job! I'm very picky, and leery of using contractors based on some bad experiences in the past. This crew came in, put up the stone siding exactly the way I wanted it done, and cleaned everything up when they were finished. Very professional, and did an outstanding job applying the stone siding. I highly recommend Residential Improvements for any exterior work you are looking to get done!"

Stucco questions, answered by experts

When cleaning stucco siding, it is recommended to use a pressure washer with a psi (pounds per square inch) between 1,500 and 2,000. This range provides sufficient power to remove dirt and grime without causing damage to the stucco surface. It's important to avoid using excessive psi as it can chip or crack the stucco. 

Using a wider spray nozzle and keeping a safe distance of about seven to 10 feet from the siding helps ensure a gentle and effective cleaning process. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines and adjust the psi accordingly based on the condition of your stucco and the specific requirements of your pressure washer.

To maintain stucco, inspect it annually for cracks and clean the surface with a mild detergent. Seal any cracks promptly to prevent water infiltration, and reseal or repaint as needed to preserve its appearance.

DIY is possible for small cracks or patches. Professional services ensure proper texture and color matching.

The average cost to repair stucco is about $1,600, with projects ranging from $250 for minor fixes to $6,700 for extensive work. The price is often calculated per square foot, typically costing between $60 and $120. Some professionals may charge an hourly rate of $40 to $50. The final cost depends on the extent of the damage, the type of stucco, your home's location, and whether there is underlying damage that also needs to be addressed.

Costs for specific repairs vary:

  • Cracks: $8–$20 per square foot

  • Holes: $250–$450 per hole

  • Water damage: $30–$50 per square foot

  • Chimney repair: $60–$120 per square foot

  • Recoating: $4–$5 per square foot

While you may be able to patch small cracks yourself, it is recommended to call a professional for major repairs to ensure the job is done correctly.

It’s not advisable to use CLR on stucco. CLR is a powerful acidic cleaner designed for removing tough mineral stains. Stucco is a porous material commonly made of cement, lime, and sand. The acidic nature of CLR can potentially damage or etch the stucco surface, leading to discoloration or deterioration. 

It is best to use cleaning solutions specifically formulated for stucco or mild household cleaners mixed with water to clean stucco siding. Always test any cleaning product in a small, inconspicuous area before applying it to the entire stucco surface.
