The tax roll puts Ocoee's median home in the year 2000, with 1,897 homes from the 1980s, 3,610 from the 1990s and 3,431 from the 2000s. On houses that age, the stucco itself is usually sound, but what protects it has worn out: window and door sealant, paint, and the bead at the base of the wall.
That is where most Ocoee repairs start. A crack that runs from a window corner, or a gap where old caulk has pulled away, lets summer rain into the wall. On block, that shows up as stains and bubbling paint inside; on the 9% of homes that are framed, it can reach the sheathing, so those cracks are checked before they are closed.
The newest homes, about 4,000 built since 2010, are a different job: fine shrinkage cracks and cracks at window corners in the first years, usually small repairs that keep the wall sealed.
