Repair & Refresh Your Stucco
Why Choose Professional Exterior Stucco Painters?
Stucco exteriors add distinctive character to homes, but this textured surface requires specialized knowledge to paint and repair properly. At Gordon Painting, we use the latest techniques and tools for stucco painting and repair. Our team will assess the condition of your stucco and recommend the best solutions for your needs.
Stucco is a unique material—it's durable and beautiful, but also porous and prone to specific problems. Painting stucco isn't the same as painting wood or vinyl siding. It requires proper surface preparation, the right products, and application techniques that ensure adhesion and longevity. With years of experience, you can trust our skilled painters to handle your stucco repair and painting projects with precision, ensuring a quality result that gives you peace of mind.
Common Stucco Issues We Fix
- Cracking: Hairline cracks, larger stress cracks, and corner cracks are common as buildings settle and stucco expands and contracts. We repair cracks properly to prevent water infiltration.
- Staining: Rust stains, water stains, and discoloration can make stucco look aged and neglected. We address the source and restore the appearance.
- Fading: UV exposure fades stucco color over time. Fresh paint restores vibrant color and provides UV protection.
- Efflorescence: Those white, powdery deposits are mineral salts from moisture migrating through the stucco. We treat the cause and restore the finish.
- Mold & Mildew: West Michigan's humidity promotes mold and mildew growth on stucco, especially on north-facing walls. Proper cleaning and mold-resistant coatings address this issue.
- Water Damage: More serious than surface issues, water damage can compromise the stucco system. We assess and repair damaged areas before painting.
Our Stucco Painting Process
Painting stucco requires more preparation than other surfaces:
- Thorough inspection for cracks, damage, and problem areas
- Pressure washing to remove dirt, mold, and loose material
- Repair of cracks and damaged sections
- Application of appropriate primer
- Elastomeric or masonry paint application for flexibility and breathability
The Right Products Matter
Stucco requires breathable paints that allow moisture to escape while protecting the surface. Standard paints can trap moisture, leading to peeling, bubbling, and stucco damage. We use professional-grade elastomeric and masonry coatings specifically designed for stucco surfaces—products that flex with the material and provide lasting protection.
