At Murillo Construction Painting and Remodeling, we handle every stucco project with a commitment to structural integrity and long-term durability. We are not here for surface-level work or shortcuts that fail after a season. Our focus is on proper substrate preparation, multi-coat application, and texture consistency that stands up to weather and time. Every exterior we finish is treated with the kind of care that keeps your home protected, year after year.
We install complete three-coat stucco systems designed to protect your home for decades. Each layer is carefully applied, from the scratch coat that bonds to the substrate through the finish coat that delivers texture and color. Proper curing time between coats ensures strong adhesion, crack resistance, and weather protection. You get an exterior that stands up to rain, heat, and wind while maintaining clean lines and consistent appearance year after year.
We inspect substrate condition, install lath over sheathing, and verify control joint placement for proper bonding.
Scratch coat, brown coat, and finish coat are applied in sequence using proper mix ratios and trowel techniques.
We apply your chosen finish texture, monitor drying across all sections, and ensure uniform waterproof performance.
Homeowners rely on guidance they can trust when making decisions about exterior finishes. We explain every step in simple terms, from surface preparation through final texture application, so you understand exactly what’s happening and why. Our recommendations are based on real-world performance, not sales pressure. Each coat is applied with care, materials are reviewed for quality, and timelines are communicated honestly from the first conversation to final walkthrough.
Three coat system shields walls from rain, moisture, and UV exposure for decades.
Fresh stucco finish transforms exterior appearance with texture and color that matches your style.
Cement-based stucco resists ignition and slows flame spread, adding safety to your property.
Properly installed stucco requires minimal upkeep and retains its finish for years.
Thick stucco walls add insulation, reducing heat transfer and lowering cooling costs.
Reinforced mesh and bonding layers strengthen exterior walls and resist cracking over time.
Three coat stucco systems rely on proper substrate preparation, correct mix ratios, and controlled curing between layers to achieve maximum strength. Wire lath must be securely fastened, and each coat must bond fully before the next is applied. Control joints are placed to manage movement and prevent random cracking. When installed correctly, stucco delivers exceptional durability, superior weather resistance, and decades of reliable exterior protection with minimal maintenance required.
We handle proper cleaning and repair of walls before applying stucco to ensure strong bonding.
Each coat is applied evenly and allowed to cure correctly for consistent texture and finish.
We use cement, sand, and aggregates mixed to correct ratios for durability and weather resistance.
Joints are placed strategically to prevent cracks from expansion and movement over time.
You receive regular communication about progress, timelines, and any adjustments needed during installation.
Proper installation and curing techniques ensure your stucco resists cracking and weathering for years.
If large sections are damaged or the substrate shows water intrusion, full replacement is often more cost-effective than patching.
Most exterior stucco projects finish within three to five days, depending on wall area and weather conditions.
You can choose smooth, sand, or textured finishes that match your design preference and blend with existing architecture.
No. Once cured, stucco is durable and only needs occasional washing and periodic inspection for cracks.
Properly installed three-coat stucco resists cracking when control joints are placed correctly and the mix cures evenly.
