Stucco Repair & Repainting in Colorado Springs, CO

What We Offer
Comprehensive services tailored to your needs
Proper Crack Repair — Not Just Paint-Over
We excavate cracks, clean the substrate, apply a compatible patching compound, and feather seamlessly. Painting over open cracks guarantees early failure — we never do it.
Elastomeric Coatings for Colorado
Colorado homes experience 100°F+ temperature swings annually. We use elastomeric and masonry coatings that flex with the substrate — preventing re-cracking far longer than standard paint.
UV & Moisture Barrier Application
Colorado Springs sits at 6,000 feet with intense UV. Our stucco finish coats include UV-blockers and moisture-resistant formulations specifically selected for our altitude and climate.
Water Intrusion Assessment
Cracks in stucco are often entry points for water. We inspect and address the source — caulking around windows, doors, and penetrations — before repainting to prevent future damage.
Color & Texture Matching
We match existing stucco texture (smooth, sand finish, dash, knockdown) so repairs are seamless and the final color coat is uniform. Your home won't look patched — it will look new.
5-Year Warranty on All Stucco Work
Our stucco repair and repainting work is backed by our 5-year transferable labor warranty — in writing. If cracks return due to our workmanship, we fix it at no cost.

We apply a compatible patching compound in layers, feathering edges for a seamless blend with the surrounding texture. Cure time is respected between coats.
Caulking & Water Barrier
All joints, penetrations, and vulnerable areas are caulked with a paintable elastomeric caulk to prevent water intrusion at the most common entry points.

A quality masonry primer is applied, followed by one to two full coats of elastomeric or masonry paint — color-matched to your specification or an entirely new palette.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does stucco crack so much in Colorado Springs?
Colorado Springs' temperature swings — often 40°F+ in a single day — cause constant expansion and contraction in stucco. Add freeze-thaw cycles through the winter and you get micro-crack formation that worsens each season. Proper elastomeric coatings reduce this significantly.
Can you just paint over stucco cracks?
We never recommend it and we don't do it. Painting over open cracks traps moisture, accelerates the cracking cycle, and results in paint failure within 1-2 years. Proper repair before painting is the only way to get lasting results.
What paint do you use on Colorado stucco?
We use elastomeric masonry coatings (Sherwin-Williams Loxon XP, Elastomeric, or Sto coatings) and Benjamin Moore masonry products selected for Colorado's UV, moisture, and temperature demands. The product choice depends on your stucco substrate and condition.
How long does stucco repainting last in Colorado?
With proper prep, elastomeric coatings, and our 5-year warranty, a quality stucco repaint should last 8-15 years in Colorado. Without proper prep, expect 3-5 years at best.
Do you handle stucco on older Colorado Springs homes?
Yes — including pre-1978 homes where stucco may contain lead. We are EPA Lead-Safe Certified and follow all required protocols for testing, containment, and safe repair on older structures.
