Why do stucco walls crack? why stucco cracks?
Howdy guys and gals, my daughter Madeleine Giordano videoed me as I explain some of the reasons why this new stucco home has cracked in such a short time.
This type of cracking happens every once in a while.
Please note the roll of tape in my hand is for covering windows. The tape I used to cover the wall on the previously day is called fiber mesh tape mainly used for sheet rock or for the purpose shown in this video. By the way if home owners wanted to just paint this home I could have just used caulking.
To repair cracks takes more time in than most folks realize. For example, in the early morning they are the largest and in the hot sun they are almost invisible.
