The way we handle stucco chimneys in Dover Shores West
A closer look at the stucco work our team does on chimneys in Dover Shores West.
Old patches that failed at their edges
Patches that were too hard, too thin or feathered over the old finish tend to crack along their outline. A ring of cracks around an old repair is a clue that it never took hold.
We remove failed patches back to sound stucco and rebuild them properly. Leaving a failed patch in place and patching around it only adds another edge for water to find. The outline of the new repair is chosen so the old failed edge is removed completely.
Same-day service when the schedule allows
Some stucco problems can wait for a planned repair, and some cannot. When loose stucco or water inside is a worry, ask about same-day service.
When the schedule allows, we come out the same day for the free inspection and make anything loose safe. The full repair is then planned around the coats and the weather. Loose pieces near a roof edge or doorway are taken down first so nobody is at risk while the repair is planned.
Strong sun on fresh stucco
Direct sun and wind dry the surface of new stucco before the inside has cured, which leads to shrinkage cracks. The Park Service guidance recommends shading new work in hot weather.
Our crew times the work and shades or dampens the repair as the product calls for. It is one of the small steps that decides whether a patch stays crack free. On a very hot afternoon the crew may start a coat early in the day or leave the finish for a cooler hour.
A second opinion on a stucco quote
If you have been told the whole chimney must be rebuilt because of cracked stucco, a second look is reasonable. Stucco damage often looks worse than the structure behind it. We look at the same cracks, sound the same faces and explain what we find in plain words.
Our free inspection gives you an independent read on what the finish and the masonry need. You decide with two views in hand. If a rebuild really is the right call, we tell you that too and explain why.

What Dover Shores West homeowners ask about stucco repair
Still weighing it up? These answers help, and the stucco inspection in Dover Shores West is free.
Is an elastomeric coating a good idea for my chimney?
Sometimes. Some elastomeric coatings bridge hairline cracks and resist wind-driven rain, but they do not fix loose stucco, and some films can hold moisture in. We repair the stucco first and recommend a coating only when its product data suits your chimney.
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.
