Re-stucco · Color coatRe-Stucco & Color Coat in Vacaville, CA
A fresh finish for faded walls, or a complete new stucco system from the framing out — with the texture and color you choose.
New color, new texture, no peeling
A color coat is a thin final layer of stucco with the color mixed in. It covers fading, patch marks and minor imperfections, and refreshes the texture.
- Dozens of integral colors, from whites to earth tones
- Sand, lace, dash, Santa Barbara and smooth textures
- Hairline cracks repaired first
- No peeling paint to maintain
A new stucco system, layer by layer
When walls have failed, re-stucco starts over: tear-off, new water-resistive barrier and lath, three coats of stucco and a finish.
- Tear-off to the sheathing and disposal
- Damaged sheathing replaced
- Two layers of Grade D paper or equivalent
- New metal lath, weep screed and casing beads
- Scratch, brown and finish coats with proper curing
- Window and door flashing integrated
From inspection to the final color coat
Good stucco work is mostly about water: finding where it gets in, fixing the layers behind the surface, then finishing so the repair disappears.
Inspection
We look at cracks, stains, soft spots, weep screed, windows and roof-wall joints to find where water is getting in.
Written scope & price
Repair, color coat or re-stucco — a clear scope and price, with any hidden-damage allowance spelled out.
Protect & prep
Windows, plants and walkways are covered; damaged stucco is cut back to sound material.
Paper & lath
Damaged water-resistive barrier and lath are replaced and lapped correctly into the existing layers.
Scratch & brown coats
Base coats are applied and allowed to cure so the patch is as strong as the wall around it.
Finish & color
The texture is matched and an integral-color finish or elastomeric coating is applied.
Cleanup & walk-through
Debris hauled away and a final walk-around with you.

Stucco questions, answered
What is a stucco color coat?
A color coat is the final, thin layer of stucco with the color mixed into the material. It renews faded or patchy walls and covers minor imperfections, and because the color is integral it does not peel like paint.
Should I repair or re-stucco my house?
Isolated cracks and small damaged areas are usually repaired and blended. When cracking and staining are widespread, the finish has failed over most walls, or there is water damage behind large areas, a full re-stucco can be the better long-term value.
How long does a re-stucco take?
Most single-family re-stucco projects take a few weeks, because each coat must cure before the next. Color coats on sound walls are much faster.
Do I need a permit for stucco work in Vacaville?
Small cosmetic repairs usually do not, but a full re-stucco or replacing paper and lath over large areas generally does. Check with City of Vacaville — building permits; unincorporated areas fall under Solano County.
