Q: How long does it take to remove stucco siding?

• <div><p>The time required to remove stucco siding depends on the size of the home, the thickness of the stucco, and the complexity of the project. Most projects take between two and seven days, but larger or multi-story homes may require more time, especially if repairs are needed after removal is complete.</p></div>

Q: How to apply stucco to wood?

• <div><p>You can apply stucco to wood by wrapping it with grade D waterproof paper, installing trim accessories such as metal lath, control joints, weep screeds, casing beads, and expansion joints, and applying the stucco in three layers. You&rsquo;ll need a scratch coat, brown coat, and finish coat, all applied with a trowel and screeded with a darby or straight edge. Each should cure for two days before you apply the next one.</p></div>

Q: Is stucco considered siding or cladding?

• <div><p>Stucco is considered a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cladding-types.htm">type of cladding</a> because it includes a built-in ventilation layer, a weatherproof membrane beneath that, and, often, a layer of insulation to improve building efficiency. The multiple layers of stucco&mdash;the scratch coat, the brown coat, and the finish coat&mdash;also create a more complex building membrane, so it&rsquo;s more accurate to call it cladding. However, homeowners and contractors alike refer to stucco as siding.</p></div>

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 are the main alternatives to aluminum siding?

• <div><p>Aluminum siding isn't the only type of siding material on the market for giving your home's exterior a makeover. Alternatives to aluminum siding include vinyl siding, wood siding, composite siding, and brick veneer siding. Each siding material comes with strengths and weaknesses that could influence your decision based on your particular circumstances, so it's important to look into each type as they pertain to your home and lifestyle before deciding.</p><p>A popular competitor to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/aluminum-vs-vinyl-siding.htm">aluminum siding is vinyl siding</a>, which has a similar price and is lower maintenance but comes with a shorter life span.</p></div>

Initially they seem enthusiastic and professional but that impression quickly faded. The one week estimate stretched to over two weeks. The worst was that hairline cracks were made to look terrible with built up stripes of spackle slapped onto textured stucco! It took several requests and tries...
