Stucco Work?

[MOODY]

The wife crashed her car into the side of the garage awhile back, and it needs to be repaired. Just the stucco. Anyone do smallish jobs like that? Recommend anyone?

I'd be interested as well....

Is it hard or soft coat stucco? My bro in law does soft coat but it’s less common

Watching...I've got a hairline crack that's developing and getting slightly worse each year.

When I get home I'll post the name of the guy that did my detached garage. He does complete jobs as well as repair. They did good work and were competitive with their bid.

What's the difference between the two? One is... softer?

I think hard coat is more for exterior work.

 

[str8axleguy]

So basically hard coat has some type of cement in it. Soft coat you can cut with a razor knife.

Mine is hard coat. Thanks for the reference!

Your welcome

Mines soft, then, I think. More like a foam.

 

[str8axleguy]

Yep if it’s foam board behind probably soft. Hard to say where I haven’t seen it but soft is thinner probably less than 1/8 inch maybe 1/16

Is your brother-in-law still in the business? Definitely soft foam (gives when lightly pressed, has a foam/fiber backing), needs some love.

Having foam behind it doesn’t really mean it’s soft. Hit the damaged area with a hammer, you’ll know for sure. Mine is hard with a foam backing (I know, that’s what she said). You guys really need to post up when you find a guy willing to do small jobs like this. I struggled for a couple of months trying to find someone, they’d much rather do new houses, where the money is.

Hmmm... This is thin and gives when your push on it with your hand. So which is it?

 

[BCGPER]

My guess would be a soft coating. Mine is about 3/8” thick, and as hard as concrete. A tap with a hammer will tell you for sure.

Looks soft to me I’ll ask my brother in law if he’s still doing it, I know he does a lot of rock work like fireplaces
