Signs Your Stucco Needs Help
Most surfaces on the exterior of your home can be safely pressure washed so long as the proper setting is used. At JD Cleaning & Painting, we understand the needs of different materials and adjust our machines accordingly. Some of the surfaces we can clean for you include:
Multiple or Large Cracks in the Stucco
Occasionally, hairline cracks in stucco aren't a concern. In fact, they are perfectly normal. However, if there are many cracks in one spot or there are larger cracks, it indicates something has gone wrong. We will assess the situation to ensure the problems are surface level, not structural, and deliver the right fix.
Stained or Discolored Stucco
If your stucco is stained or discolored, your first instinct is likely to paint over it. However, this is a sign that there is an underlying problem to address. Allow us to assess the situation and determine which services are needed to get the best results.
Moss and Mold
Additionally, If moss or mold are growing on your stucco, it is a clear sign that you have a moisture problem. This could be an issue within the stucco itself or something much larger. Let us locate the source of the problem and repair your stucco as needed.
Crumbling Stucco
However, Stucco can crumble due to a variety of factors, including old age, stress, infestations, settling, and water damage. If you notice more than just the occasional flakes, you should have your stucco assessed for damage.
Stucco Repair FAQs
Settling cracks can occur in buildings when the foundation settles or shifts over time. It is important to fix settling cracks before moisture finds its way behind the stucco and causes major damage. When you catch it early it can really save time and money.
All we ask is that you move any delicate items out of the area. We are happy to handle all other preparation.
Repairing stucco can be done by homeowners, but it requires some knowledge and skill. If you have experience working with stucco, you can attempt the repairs yourself, but if you’re not familiar with stucco, it may be best to hire a professional.
