The Problem With Stucco

So, what is it about stucco that makes it a poor exterior siding material for our area? As a very porous material, it absorbs moisture very easily. When it retains that water for too long, the flashing will start to fail, which can lead to serious structural issues for your home. With all of our annual rain and snowfall in the area, stucco homes simply can’t withstand all that moisture. 

If left alone, eventually you’ll start to notice large areas of your stucco are degrading, allowing future moisture to get beneath the surface, which can affect the framing and foundation of your home. 

When to Consider Replacing Your Stucco

The easiest way to determine if you need to replace your stucco is to take a walk around your home’s exterior and look for visible signs of damage. If you notice any of the following, it’s time to think about replacing your siding: 

  • Chunks of your stucco are missing
  • There are long, thin cracks in the stucco
  • You see areas of rot around exterior outlets and pipes
  • There are bulges beneath your stucco
  • You notice parts of your stucco are stained

These are all serious warning signs that your stucco is failing. If you notice any of these issues, our team would be happy to come out and inspect your exterior. 

The Stucco Replacement Process

If your stucco is indeed beginning to fail, our team can help you navigate the replacement process. We’ll start with remediation, which means we’ll remove the stucco and then assess the damage. From there, we’ll install a Water Resistive Barrier to protect your home against future water damage. 

During the next step, we’ll install a new siding material. Many of our customers opt to install James Hardie fiber cement siding, which is designed to withstand our climate here in Southeastern Pennsylvania. It’s available in a variety of styles, colors, and designs so you can create an exterior that’s as beautiful as it is durable.

Stucco Replacement FAQs

Can I repair my stucco instead of replacing it?
