NYC Waterproofing & Construction specialize in exterior Stucco Installation Services in New York. Your home’s stucco exterior can take a beating over time because it is completely exposed to the elements. As a result, Stucco Repair Services in New York, and stem wall scraping are important parts of our preparation work.
We’ll go over some of the reasons why stucco repair is the most important part of our preparation work, as well as what it means for your home. It’s just one of the reasons NYC Waterproofing & Construction is one of the most trusted Stucco Installation Services in New York.
Why is stucco repair so important?
Stucco is one of the most popular building materials in the Valley, owing to our arid climate and low-clay soil, which mitigate some of its drawbacks, specifically, that stucco does not do well with shifting earth beneath it. It’s long-lasting and complements the appearance of many areas.
Nonetheless, stucco is not impenetrable. NYC Waterproofing & Construction repair stucco before painting it for a variety of reasons, including:
Your stucco house is constantly under attack.
This may sound dramatic, but it’s true: the sun, wind, rain, and other natural elements are constantly bombarding your stucco. New York climate can be harsh on almost everything, including the exterior of your home. Even woodpeckers have a go at it. Finally, cracks in the stucco may appear as your home settles over time.
In addition to making your home appear unsightly, stucco damage can eventually lead to the failure of the stucco exterior. But, more importantly for our purposes, painting over damaged stucco will not yield the desired results. Let me explain.
Well-maintained stucco ensures a smooth finish.
Our goal is to provide you with a beautiful exterior painting job. To accomplish this, we must smooth over and repair any hairline fractures, holes, or other damage to the stucco walls we will be painting.
Consider this: if you were painting the walls of your living room without first repairing any damage, the result would be strange splotching and shadows. It would look terrible. The same is true for the exterior of your home. Any exterior painting company that does not first perform stucco repair is asking for trouble.
Of course, that is only one of the things we do for preparation. However, given that stucco is the canvas on which we work, you could argue that it is one of the most important things we do.
Improved stucco equals longer-lasting exterior paint.
A poor canvas results in a poor painting. Failure to properly prepare a home’s stucco exterior before painting can have another effect: it can cause the paint to wear faster or peel, requiring you to repaint sooner than you should.
Exterior home painters in New York are required by state law to provide homeowners with a two-year warranty on their work. That, in our opinion, is insufficient. The homes we paint come with a seven-year contract.
Part of the reason? We’re confident in our prep work, painting process, and high-quality paint. We do things right so that your home is painted to last.
Increases the market value of your home.
Many homeowners we work with hire us to repaint their homes because they plan to put them on the market, either immediately or soon. It’s a wise decision: exterior home painting can significantly improve your home’s curb appeal and value.
Effective stucco repair is more than just a necessary part of the painting process in Phoenix. It’s yet another excellent selling point for your house. It reassures the buyer that there are no issues with the exterior of the home and conveys that your home has been well-maintained.
