The way we handle stucco chimneys in Randal Park
Details our Randal Park team explains on every stucco chimney visit.
Corrosion-resistant lath and fasteners
Section R703.7.1 wants the lath, and whatever fastens it, made to resist corrosion. When lath or nails inside an older finish rust, they swell and push the stucco away from the wall, and the stains that follow are often the first visible sign.
Where we open a lathed area and find rusted metal, the damaged lath in the repair area is replaced with corrosion-resistant material before new coats go on. We show you what came out and note it in your records. Sound lath beyond the repair edge is left in place and tied into the new work.
Chalky old paint on chimney stucco
An old coating that leaves powder on your hand is a poor base for new paint. The Park Service guidance notes that latex paint will not stick to chalky or powdery areas.
Before any finish goes on, we check how well the existing coating holds and prepare the surface to suit the new one. Skipping that step is a frequent reason a freshly painted chimney starts peeling again. A quick rub test on each face shows how much preparation the old coating needs.
Algae and dark growth on a damp face
Dark or green growth on a chimney face shows that part of the finish stays damp. The Park Service guidance notes that organic growth such as algae and mold can be removed from stucco with suitable cleaning methods.
We clean gently and look for the reason the face stays wet, such as shade, a missing drip edge or a spray head. Some coatings are also made to deter growth, and we discuss those where they suit. Harsh cleaners and high pressure are avoided because they can strip the finish along with the growth.
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 Randal Park homeowners ask about stucco repair
Straight answers from our specialists in Randal Park, with no sales pressure.
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.
Is the stucco inspection really free?
Yes. We inspect the chimney stucco, crown, cap and flashing at no charge and give you a written estimate. There is no obligation to book.
