No two plastering services are alike, and stucco projects in particular demand a certain precision and level of experience. “Stucco” is actually the term that is commonly used to describe portland cement plaster. This mixture blends cement, water, and sand together, the end result of which is often used as an exterior or interior wall covering.

Stucco is a multifaceted material that serves several purposes. As a wall covering, it provides strength and durability, and it's reliable enough to withstand different types of weather patterns, including heavy winds and high humidity. Since it is fire resistant, it also provides a degree of safety when building, for example, a flame-resistant home or workshop.

It's also versatile enough to use over brick, concrete, wood frames, and steel frames, to name a few. For new stucco installation projects in particular, this adaptability comes in handy. Stucco can also be pigmented to achieve a certain look or complement an existing color palette. The varieties of colors annd  textures are as vast as one’s imagination,

Stucco is a safe investment because it resists rot and fungus. However, it's not completely impervious to damage. If the stucco in your home or business was improperly installed and poorly sealed, water damage may occur. Moisture will cause a host of problems, including mold growth and structural damage. If moisture is allowed to penetrate the stucco and it freezes it will expand and start spalling or worse yet… coming away from the wall. It's important to stop these issues before they start.
