Stucco repairs require a full understanding of the nuances of just how stucco reacts under certain conditions. Whether it is a window patch or a stucco crack, the right approach is paramount in achieving a seamless and successful stucco repair. Stucco failure is usually the result of water penetration in the structure of a building. This infiltration can occur through the roof, window, and door openings or even via excessive ground water, with water penetrating through or splashing up from the foundation. Stucco repairs incorrectly carried out can and often will cause additional problems going forward.
Stucco cracks that permit the access of water almost always lead to stucco failure. Knowing how to repair stucco compromised to such an extent can mean the difference between an entirely new stucco finish and 5-10 years of life with your existing stucco siding. It pays to have the right stucco contractor perform your stucco repairs. The costs savings alone can be immense! Like any problem in construction or even life itself, one must first identify the source.
The cause of the failure must be identified first, before any necessary stucco repairs are planned. Before beginning any stucco repairs, a full evaluation should be carried out to determine the actual extent of the stucco damage. How much of the surrounding stucco needs to be removed in advance; the condition of the lath, the framing, the waterproof barrier, these are just a few problem areas that need assessing before any stucco repairs are carried out.
