Features of Stucco Siding

Stucco is a great exterior option that comes with a range of features that lead to its popularity. Here are some of the unique features of stucco.

High Durability: Stucco is known for its high durability and can often last decades before it shows any signs of wear and tear. It can hold up to various weather conditions, such as extreme cold, heat, rain, and wind.

Very Versatile: Stucco can be used in multiple styles of architecture, from classic to modern. It can be shaped as well as given texture and color to achieve most aesthetic effects. This makes it a versatile choice for different design preferences.

Resistance to Fire: Stucco is innately fire-resistant due to its composition, which includes cement. This makes it a useful option for improving the fire safety of a building.

Resistance to Moisture: Stucco's composition and application process create a barrier against moisture penetration. This helps to protect the underlying structure from water damage, making it suitable for areas with humid or rainy climates.


Stucco Finishes

Smooth Stucco Siding Finish

Smooth: The smooth finish is a classic and is known for its sleek and refined finish. It gives an even surface free from any noticeable texture, giving your structures a clean and modern look.

Spanish Stucco Siding Finish

Spanish: This finish has a "cat's paw" or "lace" texture that imparts a distinct Mediterranean feel. The irregular patterns give off a sense of Old World charm and are often associated with villas and wine.

Dash Stucco Siding Finish

Dash: Also known as "pebble dash," "spar dash," or "sand," this finish uses small pebbles or sand set into the stucco mix. The result is a texture that gives a tactile visual charm.

Cat Face Stucco Siding Finish

Cat Face: This finish is famous for its rustic appearance, which adds character and depth to a home. The irregular texture can also help mask minor imperfections or cracks that may develop in the stucco over time.

When to Replace Stucco

Cracks and Damage: Over time, small cracks, as well as other forms of damage, can begin to form in stucco. This is due to many reasons, such as settling your foundation, temperature changes over time, and exposure to water. Small cracks can often be fixed, but large cracks or areas of damage might imply the need for replacement.

Issues With Moisture: Stucco's primary enemy is moisture. If you notice the stucco's water damage, staining, or bubbling, it could be a sign that it has lost its water resistance and is in need of replacement.

Bulging or Blisters: Bulges or blisters on the surface of the stucco can mean that water is trapped beneath the surface. This is a clear sign that the stucco is failing and needs to be replaced.

Peeling Paint: If you see the paint on your stucco is starting to peel or a white, powdery substance is forming on the surface, it could be a sign of moisture problems that need your attention.



FAQS Stucco Sidding

What is stucco?

Stucco is a wall finish for home exteriors made by mixing cement, sand, and water with other additives. It's used on the surface of buildings to give a stable and decorative finish.

How long does stucco last?

When it is installed and maintained the right way, stucco can last for many decades. This siding can stay in good shape for 50 years or more.

Is stucco right for all climates?

Stucco performs well in most climates, but you may need to make certain adjustments may be necessary. In humid climates, more waterproofing steps are vital to stop issues related to moisture. Stucco must be cured in the right way to stop cracks from forming due to freezing and thawing.

Can stucco be used on any surface?

You can use stucco on lots of surface types, like wood, brick, and metal. Remember, though, that the surface must be prepared properly to ensure you have good bonding and a finish that lasts.

Does stucco need maintenance?

Yes, the stucco will need some maintenance. Regularly inspect for cracks, chips, or other damage to catch issues early. Cleaning the stucco once a year and taking care of any problems as they arise can help prolong its lifespan.

What should I do if my stucco cracks?

Small cracks are common in stucco due to settling and changes in temps. These can often be repaired with a stucco patching material. Larger cracks may be signs of other issues and should be checked by a professional.

Can stucco be painted?

Yes, stucco can be painted. Be sure to use the right type of paint that has been designed for stucco. Before you paint, complete any repairs, cleaning, or maintenance to make sure you have a smooth and even finish.

Gary and team did a great job on our exterior remodel! We had cedar shake siding that was stained and wearing badly. Mi remodelers was really patient with us while we decided whether we wanted to restain or try to power wash it natural and just seal. Thankfully we were able to go natural with it and love how it turned out!! They also replaced our garage door and did a ton of trim painting. It all looks so good together! We would definitely use them for future projects 😊

Our son in law recommended them to install gutters. Very glad we went with them! They came out quickly for an estimate. They were very reasonable and use quality materials. Soon after the estimate an appointment was scheduled to install the gutters. They showed up on time and were in and out in a matter of hours and did a quality job!!

Greatly appreciate MI Remodelers for garage and driveway, new drainage, and garage and porch brick repair. Very professional management and team. The job is formed and ready to pour. The financing has been easy. Ken (the expert with 37 years in the business) and Gary (the owner) have been onsite every step of the way. Gary has been hands on, responsive, and outstanding to work with. The onsite team of 5 hard and professional workers was refreshing. We had some unexpected surprises while clearing the old driveway, and no changes to contract. Not only do I appreciate Gary, during the excavation, he noted several opportunities for improvement that I took advantage of. Yeah, for a cost, but I really appreciate the guidance and suggestions and opportunity to take advantage of a larger driveway width that made more sense. Nice job. I figure that I will update this after the concrete is poured, and again after a month since I highly recommend this company. And personally, very rare that I find such gems these days.

@Shelley Wright
Customer Reviews from Yelp
We had MI remodelers out to replace our front steps and install a patio. Gary and the team were so easy to work with! We're a younger couple and weren't exactly sure what we wanted but they gave us lots of options and talked about which ones would be best. We had a couple of quotes done and we liked them the best because they were super punctual, a fair price, and really easy to get a hold of. Every time we contacted them we heard back from someone within a half our. The patio looks wonderful! Also while they were out, they noticed one of our gutters was falling so they quoted us a price to fix that took. The gutter looks amazing! Almost wish we would've replaced more (another project for another day). We defiantly plan on having MI remodelers come out to do more projects.
