Exterior Stucco Painting Toronto

Stucco is an exterior covering that is made by blending sand with powdered lime or cement. Water is added to the mixture until it reaches mortar-like consistency. After finishing, you get a rough-textured appearance on the surface. Popcorn surface is hard, flexible, waterproof, and gives a stylish architectural look to your house.

In Toronto, Stucco is most commonly used as an exterior covering for the past 15 years. Stucco is generally applied by hand over metal wire or lath, which helps it to stick to the surface firmly. Typically, popcorn surface lasts for years, but might get dirty and cracked easily when not maintained.

Stucco repair and painting are necessary for not only maintaining the masonry but also refresh the exterior look of your house. These two things can shield your exterior from water damages also. Our team of professional painters ensure that your home has the best exterior stucco look for years.
