The crew at Stucco HQ was a pleasure to work with. With such a big undertaking, Anthony and his stucco installers were always open to our questions and sympathetic to our concerns. Anthony was really accommodating of our schedule. He and his team come highly recommended by us. They did an excellent job installing stucco on the entire home and our home looks awesome!
I was really impressed with Stucco HQ for my stucco repair. Their stucco repair contractors were super professional and did a great job. They explained everything clearly and kept me updated. The staff were friendly and helpful.
Stucco repair contractors from Stucco HQ are fantastic. I received a quote for some stucco repairs and painting within a day of me calling their office. I hired them over a couple other stucco companies I got quotes from. Their crew was respectful, workmanship was awesome, and the price was fair.

What We Install
Where New Stucco Goes
Beyond new homes, most installation projects follow another one: a new room, new windows, siding that has worn out. These are the jobs new stucco is used for.
Additions and new rooms
New walls built onto a stucco house get the same kind of finish as the rest of the home, so the addition looks like it was always there.
Enclosed porches and Florida rooms
When a screened porch becomes a room, stucco goes on the new walls to match the house.
Siding to stucco
Vinyl or wood siding on part of a stucco home can be replaced with stucco, so the walls match all the way around.
Openings from other trades
New windows and doors, a removed AC unit or shutters, and plumbing work leave openings and torn edges. They are closed in and finished to blend.
Garage bands, trim and accents
Stucco bands around a garage door, trim around windows and other details add shape and shadow to a plain wall.
Walls, columns and pillars
Garden and privacy walls, entry columns and pillar caps get a stucco finish that ties them to the house.

Concrete block walls
On block, stucco bonds straight to the prepared masonry. It is the most common wall in South and Central Florida, and it takes new stucco well.
Framed walls
On wood frame, new stucco goes over a two-layer water barrier and metal lath, in three coats: the scratch coat, the brown coat and the finish.
Curing before paint
New stucco needs time to cure before it is painted, and rainy weeks can stretch that. Your contractor tells you when the walls are ready, then paints them.
Sun and salt air
Strong sun and salt near the coast are hard on exterior finishes. Paint, once the stucco has cured, is what keeps sun and rain off the new walls.
Permits and inspections
New walls and additions often need a permit from your city or county. Your contractor confirms what your project needs when quoting.
Matched to the house
New stucco is textured to match the existing walls, from smooth to sand and heavier finishes, so the new section reads as part of the home.

Done Right
What Good New Stucco Looks Like
Good new stucco is straight, even and hard to tell from the walls beside it. Corners are crisp, the texture carries across the line between old and new, and the surface is ready for paint once it has cured.
What you cannot see matters most. On framed walls the water barrier and lath go on first and the stucco is built up in coats; on block, the surface is prepared so the new stucco bonds to it.
Fine hairline cracks can show up as a cement finish cures and the house settles, which is normal for stucco. Your contractor explains what to expect and how to care for the new walls.
Options Compared
Choosing a Stucco Finish
The finish is the biggest choice in a new stucco project. On a new home it is up to you. On an addition or any new section of an existing house, it usually matches the finish the house already has.

Questions
Questions About Stucco Installation
How much does new stucco cost?
It depends on the wall area, whether the walls are block or framed, the height and access, and the finish. Your local contractor sees the project and gives you a free written quote with the price.
How is stucco installed?
On framed walls, a water barrier and metal lath go on first, then three coats: the scratch coat, the brown coat and the finish coat. On concrete block, the stucco is applied to the prepared block itself.
Do you install stucco on new homes?
Yes. Your local Stucco HQ contractor installs stucco on new construction, on concrete block and framed walls, from the lath and water barrier through the finish coat and paint, for builders, general contractors and homeowners building a home.
Do you work with builders and general contractors?
Yes. One number covers every job site in your region. Call (877) 321-1982 or send the form with the site address and your timeline, and your contractor walks the site, puts the scope and price in writing and works the schedule out with you.
When can new stucco be painted?
New stucco has to cure before paint, and rain and humidity can lengthen the wait. Your contractor tells you when your walls are ready and paints them, rather than handing you a set number of days.
Can new stucco match my existing walls?
Usually, yes. The texture is matched to the wall beside it, and paint evens out the color. Very old or heavily painted finishes can take extra work to blend.
Do you install coquina or shell finishes?
Yes. New stucco can be finished in coquina or shell to match an older home, or to give a new wall that coastal look.
Is my project too small?
No. There is no minimum job size: a single opening from a new window or one short garden wall gets the same visit and free written quote as an addition.
Can you replace siding with stucco?
Yes. Vinyl or wood siding can come off and be replaced with stucco so the house matches. What is behind the siding shapes the work, and your contractor checks it when quoting.
Do I need a permit for new stucco?
New walls, additions and larger stucco jobs often need one from your city or county. Your contractor confirms what your project requires.
Will new stucco crack?
Fine hairline cracks can appear as a cement finish cures and the house settles, and they are usually cosmetic. Proper layers behind the finish help keep larger cracks away.
Can the work fit around my other contractors?
Your contractor sets the schedule with you when quoting, so you can plan painters, window installers and other trades around it.
What is the difference between installation and replacement?
Installation is new stucco where there was none, such as a new home, an addition or a wall that had siding. Replacement takes failed stucco off a wall and puts new stucco on, and has its own page.
Do you serve my area?
Yes, across South, Central and Northeast Florida, Tampa Bay and the Space Coast. Find your city on the Service Areas page or search your ZIP code at the top of this page.
