Kansas City Stucco Installation and Repair
Have you considered stucco or stone for an existing home? There’s good news
from Bordner Installation Group. In most cases stucco or stone can be installed
over your existing siding or the siding can be removed and the stucco installed
over the sub-wall.
Is stucco right for your home? Consider these points
- Stucco is comparably priced to high-end vinyl siding, but it is a much more durable product.
- Conventional stucco is a time-tested product that has been around for centuries. It is impact resistant, fire resistant, impervious to termites and rot, and gets harder and more durable over time.
- Bordner can dress up new or existing stucco to give it a fresh new look by adding foam trim or a stucco acrylic finish.
Because stucco is not the right option for all Kansas City homes, an inspection and consultation is necessary with each homeowner to determine their wants and needs, and the possibility of residing with stucco. Please contact us for a free stucco analysis and consultation.
Maintaining and Repairing Your Stucco Home
While stucco is
generally considered maintenance free, it does need to be sealed in many
climates. In the Kansas City area and the rest
of the Midwest, freezing temperatures make it
necessary to seal stucco to prevent water absorption that might freeze and
expand causing cracks, scaling and leaks. Bordner can assist you in choosing a
good quality exterior grade paint, like elastomeric paint, which will expand
and contract with the masonry material.
Most stucco damage is due to water intrusion, the home settling, or expansion and contraction of framed walls. Small cracks can easily be fixed by the homeowner, but extensive damage should be handled by a professional since there may be damage beyond the exterior. Bordner can provide a stucco inspection to see the extent of deterioration, and to assess whether any repairs are needed beyond the surface damage. Work could be required to redirect water away from your home’s exterior as well as to repair faulty stucco work that’s previously been undertaken.
