Stucco Over Lap Siding

Q)  My question for you would be can you stucco over true lap siding on a house up in the northwest, ie Seattle area. How difficult is this process and will it hold up?

A)  The answer is Yes!

However, you need someone who knows how to make sure all the siding is stable and not loose. Remember, you are attaching to an old surface that will have to be firm, any loose siding could pop out 1/2" or less and move and crack your stucco at the same time.

Stucco over old siding is done all the time. Just replace any rotted wood, then you should be good to go. Be sure to get three bids before you start this project.

One other concern is to make sure all your windows and doors are really waterproofed. Use Peel and Seal around windows and doors and make sure you hire a well respected stucco contractor in your area. Lawsuits are all over this country due to poor installation. Stucco works well if installed right!

Keep in mind stucco also has hairline cracks. I like using the flexible paints on the market to keep them covered and under control when they appear.

Go to my web site at www.neidnerconstruction.com and in my Home articles under "Year Around Home Maintenance" you will find more comments on this subject.

Be sure to visit my other web site for lots of other home tips and my tune in my radio home shows in radio archive.
