Our Stucco Repair Process in Palm Desert
Every project follows our proven process refined over 17 years of Coachella Valley construction.
Inspection
We assess the damage, identify root causes (settling, moisture, impact), and determine whether repair or re-stucco is the most cost-effective solution.
Color & Texture Sampling
We sample your existing stucco color and texture to create a precise match. For older homes, we custom-tint to account for weathering and UV fading.
Preparation
We remove loose stucco, repair lath and waterproof barriers underneath, and prep the surface for new material application.
Application
Our crews apply stucco using proper techniques — scratch coat, brown coat, and finish coat — matching your existing texture pattern precisely.
Curing & Finishing
We implement proper desert curing methods to prevent rapid drying and cracking, and apply final color coat or paint as needed.
