Particular areas of your stucco house show signs of exposure and deterioration more than others, such as chimneys, parapets, house corners, window corners and under canales. Water splashes on the ground and then back on the bottom of the house walls. Over time, the stucco deteriorates and starts to crumble and falls off. We call this spalling. These areas can be repaired without having to restucco the entire wall. At Stucco Solutions, our technicians are trained exclusively in repairing stucco. A good professional stucco repair is hard to detect from the original stucco.
Parapets are the top of the walls on a flat roof house or building which extend above the roof. The parapets are an area where the stucco is exposed to the weather. Repairing holes, cracks and chips on parapets helps prevent moisture damage to interior walls. Maintenance of the "high exposure" areas of the stucco will prolong having to do a complete restucco for many years. At Stucco Solutions we approach parapet repair in many different ways. Depending on what condition your parapets are in and the extent of damage of the parapets will detemine if just repairs need to be done or if a complete parapet rebuild is needed.
