Stucco Repair That Starts Behind the Finish

Direct-applied or framed, our team repairs the stucco system your chimney actually has.

Tapping the stucco to find loose areas

Sound stucco rings solid when tapped, while stucco that has lost its bond gives a dull, hollow note. Preservation Brief 22 from the National Park Service recommends tapping gently with a wooden or acrylic hammer to map those areas, and it warns that heavy sounding can break the keys holding good stucco in place.

Our specialists tap the chimney face in a grid and mark every hollow spot before quoting. That map sets the size of the repair, so you pay for the stucco that has actually failed and none that is still holding well.

Cleaning stucco without damaging it

Stucco is softer than it looks, and a high-pressure wash can erode its surface and drive water into cracks. The Park Service's brief recommends a low-pressure water wash with soft brushes, with suitable methods for algae and mildew.

Our pros clean stained stucco gently before assessing it, so cracks and hollow spots are not hidden under grime. If the growth keeps coming back, we look for the damp spot that feeds it.

When full restucco makes sense

Replacing all of a chimney's stucco is a bigger job, and the Park Service reserves it mainly for stucco that has lost its bond over a large area or has been compromised by poor earlier repairs. Many chimneys need less than that.

Our pros recommend a full restucco only when the tapping map and the test openings show it is needed. When it is, the old stucco comes off down to the backing, the lath and paper are checked and the new stucco goes on in full coats.

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.
