STUCCO

Are you considering stucco or plaster?

Both building materials offer plenty of benefits. In fact, many people who love classic and vintage homes will only consider these options for walls and siding due to the clout they bring to a property.

If you are more inclined to work with stucco take a look at how it is so you can choose the best materials for your siding and walls.

Acrylic stucco is a type of stucco made from a base of sand and cement, with added acrylic and polymers. It's also known as synthetic stucco or elastomeric stucco finish.

Stucco is a building material that's made from a mixture of water, aggregates, and a binder, usually cement, sand, and lime.

Stucco is used as a decorative coating for walls, ceilings, and exterior walls, and as an artistic material in the architecture of any type of construction.

Modern stucco has polymers and other agents for increased flexibility that improves its resilience.

Stucco comes in various colors and styles, including smooth and professional, and rough and textured.

Stucco can well last over 50 years with proper maintenance. It can expand and contract with the weather to sustain critical damage, unlike other siding options. It’s also resistant to mold, rot and mildew.

Stucco is very easy to keep clean and well-maintained. Pressure washing the exterior once a year is enough to prevent dirt build up in the pores. Any small cracks can easily be fixed with paint or sealants to leave the finish as new.

Thanks to the layer application process for stucco, this creates a concrete shell around the house that provides insulation and helps keep the home cool without needing more energy.
