    That was brilliant Kirk but do you have to make it seem so easy – it may lure me into trying to fix my own stucco problems. I have some holes in an exterior structure so there's no insulation to worry about. Would it be possible to spray in some foaming Great Stuff or similar product for backing and then patch over that without messing with drywall or plywood?

    I realize this is an old video. I just came across this video because I was researching videos for repairing stucco, or leaks under the stucco. Kirk you do great work and I wish you well in your business. My problem is minor, but it's amazing the number of guys that "had the solution" like crawling under the house into the crawl space, when there is no crawl space, and install a French drain system , to painting over the wall with special paint. None of the solutions would solve my problem. The water is running down the wall and up under the stucco and onto the sill plate. I finally found a guy to fix my problem. Thanks for sharing your great videos. PS yep, I am now subscribed.

      Morning Kenneth, glad you found the problem.
      I have seen this many times, usually caused by the weep or drip screed set to high, not covering the mudsill or exterior sheathing by at least one inch.
      Or the soil, or dirt too high not allowing room for moister from rain to dissipate.

    100 year old Midwest home needs exterior tlc. Seems part of stucco was patched with cement instead of stucco. Can I stucco over top of that concrete? I’ve had some guys say they can do it but can’t warranty the work because of the concrete.

    • Kirk Giordano plastering Inc. says

      July 9, 2019 at 6:56 pm

      Morning Lil, concrete and stucco are both cementitious binders the difference is, sand is used in stucco and rocks are used in concrete.
      Of course, you can stucco over concrete.
      FYI, the concrete must be very clean and you should use a bonding agent on top of the concrete to make sure the stucco adheres forever.

    Hi Kirk love your vids man. Got a question. Based on what I've heard you say in other videos wouldn't this patch be at risk from perimeter cracking due to the new lath not tieing into the existing?

    Reply
    • Kirk Giordano plastering Inc. says

      August 21, 2019 at 5:29 am

      Good Evening Green, if one has a good tie in with new wire to old or applies a bonding agent a perimeter crack should not happen, but if it does a bit of caulking corrects this prior to painting. In fact

      @Kirk Giordano plastering Inc. When you say caulking, are you referring to something like, 10oz Quikrete Stucco Repair, a tube of textured caulking that is sanded and can be textured like their fast set Stucco repair. To use it on a crack do you prepare it like you would any other stucco crack?

    Just subscribed to your channel already see that you love what you do and take pride in your work. I’m a carpenter in the central tx always like to watch informative videos that I can learn from even if I already know what I’m doing. I’m not a stucco guy but I am a framing and drywall guy acoustical ceiling guy. The type of sheet rock they put on the exterior of a building is dens glass not the white board you would put on the interior it would just crumble over time dens glass is terrible to work with it has strands of fiberglass in it itchy as hell

      Good Evening Dylan, I have applied plaster over the Densglass board many times.
      I'd advise suitable gloves when working with that stuff as it's good stuff for waterproofing but will shred one's hands.

      Good evening Tom, I would advise using portland cement plaster. Mix one part portland to three parts sand.
      Or just go to Home Depot or Lowes and buy Rapid set stucco, you just add water and apply.
      Dont mix more than 3 to 5 minutes, like all the same day cement plasters, they must not be overmixed.
