Stucco is a beautiful and durable material, but it is also porous. When the paint film fails, water can seep into the substrate, leading to costly structural damage or mold. Our stucco painting and repair services are designed to restore the integrity of your home’s envelope.
We use elastomeric coatings and high-quality masonry paints that “bridge” small cracks and provide a flexible, waterproof barrier that moves with your home.
Local Painting Experts
In our region, stucco is one of the most popular exterior finishes, but it requires specific care to stay in top condition. The combination of high humidity and intense sunlight can cause stucco to expand and contract, eventually leading to hairline cracks.
As your local painting experts, we understand these regional challenges. We don’t just paint over problems; we address the underlying issues to prevent moisture intrusion and ensure your home remains a fortress against the elements.
Why Professional Stucco Service is Essential
- Expert crack repair: We use specialized masonry sealants to fill hairline cracks and larger gaps, preventing water from getting behind the stucco.
- Surface pH testing: We ensure the surface is chemically ready for paint, preventing the “chalking” or peeling often seen with low-quality applications.
- Mildew and algae resistance: Our coatings are specifically formulated to resist the biological growth that often plagues shaded or damp areas of local homes.
- Seamless blending: Whether we are patching a small area or painting the whole house, we ensure the texture and color match perfectly for a uniform look.
