How our crew repairs chimney stucco in Conway
How our family-owned crew thinks through a stucco repair at your Conway home.
Following the existing lines on the chimney
Many stucco chimneys have score lines, reveals or joints that divide the faces. The Park Service suggests that where stucco is scored, a repair be squared off to follow the existing scoring, so the joint hides in a line that was already there.
Our crew plans patch edges around those features. A repair that stops at a line, a corner or a trim edge is far less noticeable than one that ends in the middle of a smooth face. If your chimney has no lines at all, we plan edges at corners or at the roof so the joint has somewhere natural to sit.
The crown and the drip edge above the stucco
Section R1003.9.1 of the Florida residential code has the top of a masonry chimney pitched so water runs off, finished with a drip edge and a bond break at the flue liners. A drip edge throws water clear of the faces below.
When a crown has no overhang, rain runs straight down the stucco and soaks the top of every face. We check that detail on every stucco repair and quote crown work separately where it would protect the new finish. A crown that already has a good drip edge is noted as sound, so you are not sold work the chimney does not need.
Removing bad stucco without breaking the good
Heavy hammering while removing loose stucco can crack the sound finish next to it. The Park Service guidance warns against breaking the keys of surrounding good stucco during removal.
Our crew removes loose material with sharp tools and controlled cuts. Keeping the surrounding finish intact keeps the repair area as small as it needs to be, which keeps your cost down too. Cuts are made along the planned outline first, then the loose material inside is removed.
Our workmanship warranty on stucco repairs
The stucco work we perform is covered by our workmanship warranty, and the terms are written into your estimate before you approve it. The warranty covers the areas we repaired, and the written scope shows exactly where those are.
If a repair we made does not hold as agreed, we come back and fix it. New cracks from causes outside the repair, such as structural movement, are assessed on their own. Keep the written summary we give you, since it describes exactly what the warranty covers.

What Conway homeowners ask about stucco repair
Still weighing it up? These answers help, and the stucco inspection in Conway is free.
Do you repair the crown at the same time?
We check the crown on every stucco job, because water from a cracked crown often causes the stucco damage below it. Crown repair is priced on its own line, so you can do both together or schedule them separately.
What causes rust stains on chimney stucco?
Usually corroding metal inside the finish, such as lath, fasteners or corner bead. Painting over the stain hides it only for a while. We find the rusting metal, replace it in the repair area and rebuild the stucco around it.
