Cracks, Coats and Curing, Done in Order
Direct-applied or framed, our team repairs the stucco system your chimney actually has.
Why a patch should not lap over old stucco
Feathering a patch out over the surrounding stucco looks tidy on the first day and fails at its thin edges soon after. The Park Service's brief is direct about it, saying the new stucco should not overlap the old.
Our pros build each patch flush within its squared edges and match the finish at the surface, so there is no thin rim to crack or peel. Where scoring lines exist on the chimney, repairs end on those lines so the joint is hidden.
Stucco that separates in layers
Sometimes stucco does not crack all the way through but splits between coats, with the finish layer peeling away from the coat beneath it. The International Masonry Institute lists this delamination alongside cracking and spalling as signs of damaged stucco.
Our specialists remove the separated layer back to where the coats still grip each other and rebuild the finish over a prepared surface. If the lower coats are weak too, the repair goes deeper, and we explain that before cutting.
Bulging stucco on a chimney
A bulge in stucco is a section that has pulled away from its backing and is being pushed out, often by rusting lath or water behind it. Left alone, a bulge can crack open and fall away in pieces.
Our pros sound the area around a bulge to find its true edges, since the loose zone is often larger than the visible swelling. The section is removed, the backing is repaired and new stucco is built up in coats to match.
Caring for a new stucco repair
A new repair needs time before it is painted or coated, and the materials used set that timing. Our specialists tell you how long to wait and what to avoid, such as pressure washing or hanging anything on the fresh stucco.
If a new crack or stain shows up later, let us know rather than covering it with another coat. Our workmanship warranty covers the repairs we do, and a look at the change tells us whether it is the repair or something new.
