Stucco Makeover: Elevate Your Home with Fresh Textures and Colors

Stucco siding is a siding material made of Portland cement, sand, lime, and water. Applied in three coats over a lath base, it provides a solid, durable, and seamless home exterior. Some advantages of stucco include a natural resistance to fire, lasting durability, and low maintenance.

While the service life of stucco can’t be quantified as a specific number of years, properly applied and maintained Portland cement plaster, or stucco, is as durable as any commonly used cladding material. Its hard surface resists abrasion and can take a lot of physical abuse. It stands up to all sorts of climates, from cold to hot and wet to dry. Many homes built in the early 1900s have had very little maintenance and remain in good shape today.

EIFS stands for Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems. EIFS is a relatively new product which uses plasticizers to modify traditional cement stucco and make it more flexible. This allows application in a thinner coating which saves time and material. The system also includes an insulation layer that improves system and building performance. The entire modern EIFS system consists of a moisture barrier (usually), the foam insulation, the plastic-cement basecoat, fiberglass reinforcing mesh, and finishes.

With capable hands and expert workmanship, repairs should be hard to detect. The repair can be visible due to the new finish coat color, which will be more fresh and shiny but over time, as the wall ages, the patch blends in and becomes much less visible.

Its construction was achieved using units of various artificial or natural mineral products. The structure is built by binding them using mortar. The term masonry can be applied to the craft itself. It’s combined into almost all structures that are generally a highly durable form of construction.
