Stucco Repair & Waterproofing in the Bay Area
Stucco and exterior cladding protect your home from weather. Cracks, failed flashing, and damaged areas can let water reach the framing behind.
Overview
Stucco repair often involves more than patching the surface. Where water has gotten behind the stucco, damaged lath, paper, or framing may need repair before new stucco is applied.
We repair damaged stucco and siding, improve flashing and water-management details at windows, doors, and transitions, and treat vulnerable exterior areas to help keep water out.
Common warning signs
- Cracks in stucco, especially around windows and doors
- Stains or streaks below windows and openings
- Bulging, soft, or hollow-sounding stucco
- Damaged siding or trim
- Interior stains on exterior walls

Frequently asked questions
Are all stucco cracks a problem?
Hairline cracks are common, but larger cracks or cracks with staining can let water in. We can review the conditions and discuss options.
Will you match my existing stucco?
We aim to blend repairs with the existing finish. Exact matches can be difficult with aged or painted stucco, which we discuss before work begins.
Can water behind stucco cause damage?
Yes. Water that gets behind stucco can damage the lath, paper, and framing, which is why we look at what is behind damaged areas.
