Sunrise began as Sunrise Golf Village in the early 1960s, and those streets still hold about a third of the city's 19,342 single-family homes. Almost nothing new has been built since: only seven homes in the 2020s, according to the tax roll. That means nearly every Sunrise house has stucco that is 25 to 60 years old, often with several generations of patches and textures on the same wall. Your licensed local Stucco HQ contractor for South Florida works with homeowners in Sunrise Golf Village, Welleby, Springtree and Sawgrass. A real person answers, and your contractor comes out to see the wall before giving you a free written estimate.
Crack repair and texture matching on established homes are most of what Sunrise homeowners ask for. New stucco and complete re-stucco are there for larger projects.

Additions, enclosed patios, garden walls and new homes get stucco to the Florida Building Code, in two coats over block or three over lath on frame walls.

On a Golf Village house with decades of mismatched patches, the old stucco can come off down to the block, the wall gets checked, and new stucco gives it one uniform texture.
More on stucco replacementSunrise homes are block construction almost without exception, so a fine stucco crack is rarely about the structure. Watch for cracks that let rain in, and for any that keep getting wider.

Not urgent doesn't mean ignore it. Stucco expands and contracts with Florida heat and humidity, and over time even a fine hairline crack can widen and let moisture in behind the finish, turning a small repair into a bigger one. Having your local Stucco HQ contractor fix it while it is still small keeps the job simple and the cost down.
If what you see is in the first list, it most likely is not an emergency and it can usually wait. If it is in the second, have it looked at before the next stretch of heavy rain.

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.
I own a rental property in the area and my tenant told me that stucco next to the sliding door is bulging and letting in water when it rains. … they didn't just patch the surface, they found and properly addressed the wood rot in the wall that was part of the problem.
My husband and I noticed that the wall inside our kitchen was getting wet, but we had no idea where the water was coming from or who to even call. After finding Stucco HQ, their estimator came out, inspected the area above our kitchen window, and found an issue with the exterior stucco that was allowing water in.
The tax roll counts 8,351 Sunrise homes from the 1960s and 1970s and 5,866 from the 1980s, and the median home was built in 1982. With so little new construction, the city's housing has aged together, and so has its stucco: fine cracks, chalky paint and old repairs that have started to show are the norm rather than the exception.
Texture is the trickiest part. Sunrise homes have been repaired and repainted by different hands over the decades, so one wall may carry two or three slightly different finishes. A good repair matches the texture around it, not just the color, or it shows in the afternoon light.
Cracks that run in a stair-step pattern, or that open wider over a few months, are worth a look sooner. They can point to movement in the wall rather than surface shrinkage, and your contractor checks the cause before repairing the stucco over it.
Owners of older Sunrise homes want two things from a stucco contractor: a callback, and a repair you cannot see. Stucco HQ is built around both. The person matching your finish is a licensed, insured stucco professional from the area who handles repairs, installations and replacements and quotes them free.

Inland Broward runs hot. NOAA's 1991 to 2020 normals for Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport, the nearest station with a full record, show July highs averaging 91.1°F and about 93 days a year at 90°F or above. Rain totals about 56.5 inches a year, with September the wettest month.
That heat makes stucco expand by day and contract at night, and over the years the movement opens fine cracks. Summer storms and the June 1 to November 30 hurricane season then push rain into them. Sealed cracks and sound paint are what keep the block dry.
Sunrise recorded 649 qualified single-family sales in 2025, and the median price across 2025 and 2026 sales was about $485,000, according to the Florida Department of Revenue. With homes this age, a buyer's inspector will usually note stucco cracks or old patches.
