Inexperienced DIYers can make several critical mistakes during stucco application, such as:</p><ul><li><p>Failing to apply sufficiently thick layers for longevity and water resistance</p></li><li><p>Uneven application</p></li><li><p>Uneven texture across the exterior</p></li><li><p>Mixing the stucco improperly, leaving a weak structure</p></li><li><p>Failing to texture properly in between coats, leading to cracking and chipping</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What are the alternatives to brick veneer siding?

• <div><p>The most obvious alternative to brick veneer siding is a true brick wall. However, you can also explore cost-effective alternatives to brick veneer, including <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-stone-veneer.htm">stone veneer siding</a>, engineered wood siding, and fiber cement siding. Hardie board is another popular option for its high quality; <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-of-hardie-board-siding.htm">Hardie board siding costs</a> <b>$17,500 </b>on average, however.

Q: How much does stucco installation cost?

• <div><p>Costs range from $6 to $10 per square foot, depending on material type and project scope.</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>

Greg was wonderful and did a good job. (There's still a minor problem, but he wasn't the cause.) He, however, was expensive. But you get what you pay for. He graciously wrote up an invoice for me when it appeared the moving company was going to pay for the repairs. A very happy ending.

They tried hard but it wasn't highly successful. They claimed people would come from a long distance for the sale but in fact there were only local people, and since this company did not have a following in my area they did not attract the higher end buyers. They claimed it was the fault...
