Stucco crack and patch repair
Hairline and map cracking, diagonal cracks running off window and door corners, holes and impact damage. Matched to your existing texture and color so the repair does not read as a patch.
Stucco repairAll Phase Plastering and Stucco
New application, stucco repair, and plastering.
Cracks, water damage behind the wall, failing synthetic stucco, full re‑stucco, and interior plaster — on every system, for homes and commercial buildings. Twenty‑five years of doing the work, not just quoting it.
Not sure what you have?
Knock on your wall. A hard, solid thud is traditional stucco. A hollow sound with a little give is usually EIFS — and the two are repaired in completely different ways.

What we do
Repairs on any system. New work from the lath up.
Most of what we get called for is a wall that has started to fail — a crack that keeps coming back, a stain that spreads after it rains, a synthetic finish that has gone soft. We also apply new stucco and plaster from scratch.
Water damage behind the wall
Water that gets past stucco does not dry out — it sits against the sheathing and rots it. We find where it is coming in, open the wall where it needs opening, and rebuild it properly.
Water damage repairEIFS and synthetic stucco
The “styrofoam kind.” Dryvit and similar systems cannot be patched with cement stucco — it will fail again. These need to be repaired as the system they are.
EIFS repairNew stucco application
Traditional three‑coat over lath, one‑coat systems, and stucco over brick, block or existing siding. Built up in the right order so it lasts.
New applicationInterior plaster
Plaster walls and ceilings, skim coating, and patching after a leak or a repair. Plaster is in our name for a reason — it is not an afterthought here.
Plaster repairCommercial and churches
Churches, storefronts, restaurants and office buildings. Different scheduling, different scale, and a building committee or property manager to answer to.
Commercial workStraight talk
Stucco almost never fails on its own.
In twenty‑five years, the wall itself is rarely the problem. It is nearly always water getting in somewhere it should not, and then having nowhere to go.
Water gets in at the edges
Not through the middle of a wall — around windows and doors, at failed sealant joints, at a missing kick‑out flashing where the roof meets the wall, or where the weep screed has been buried by a flower bed.
Down here, it cannot dry
In this climate the wall gets wet faster than it can dry, and air conditioning pulls the drying direction the wrong way. What would be a slow problem in a dry state becomes rot here.
So the patch keeps failing
Filling a crack without fixing what is feeding it buys a season. The crack comes back in the same place, which is usually how people end up calling us the second time.
How it works
Send a picture. That is usually enough to start.
You do not need to know what is wrong or what it is called. A photo of the wall tells us most of what we need to know before anyone drives out.
Text or email a photo
Stand back far enough to show the whole wall, then take one close up on the problem. If it only shows up after rain, say so.
We tell you what we are looking at
What system it is, what is likely causing it, and whether it is something that needs doing now or can wait.
We come and look properly
Photos get you a straight answer, not a price. Anything real gets looked at in person before a number goes on paper.
You get a written scope
What we are doing, in what order, and what it costs — so you can compare it honestly against anyone else’s.
Our work
Some of what we have put up.
The only thing worth judging a plasterer on is the wall when he is finished.
Where we work
Based in Huntsville. We travel for the bigger jobs.
Day‑to‑day house calls happen around North Alabama. For larger commercial work — churches, storefronts, whole elevations — we mobilize across Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee and Louisiana.
Common questions
Things people ask before they call.
Why does my stucco keep cracking in the same place?
Because the crack is a symptom, not the problem. Cracks that come back are usually being driven by movement or by water getting in behind the wall. Fill it without dealing with the cause and it will open again, generally within a year and in exactly the same line.
Can you match my texture and color?
That is the whole job. Sand, dash, lace, knockdown, skip trowel, smooth — a repair that is structurally perfect but the wrong texture still looks like a patch from the street. Matching is done on the wall, not from a catalog.
Do you work on synthetic stucco — the styrofoam kind?
Yes. That is EIFS, and it is a different system to traditional stucco. It has to be repaired as what it is — cement patching over EIFS traps water and fails again. If you are not sure which one you have, there is a simple way to tell.
