Stucco Finish On Wood Siding
Quite a few years ago there was a company and I
believe their name was Tex e coat and I don't believe they are still in
business, because I cannot find them anywhere on the Internet.
I think I know why they went out of business but will not make any
assumptions.
This company had a elastomeric type stucco that could be sprayed onto
your entire home as a protective coating.
Some of these coatings would last a long time while other coatings would
not. Some of these coatings would flake off of the wood and stucco
creating problems for the homeowners.
One time I had a representative come out to look at a home where this
stucco like product had flaked off of the stucco walls and was also
flaking off of the roof eaves.
The representative of this company explained to me that it was applied
improperly and there was going to be no guarantees for their product.
At the time I was quite young and did not understand this person was
just giving me the runaround and was not going to stand behind his
product. I chose to never do business with anyone associated with that
company again.
If you run into a situation like this where there is a stucco based
product that was applied over wood siding or wood roof eaves, you might
think twice about purchasing the home or building.
There really is no way to scrape this stuff off and repaint it. If there
is a way, I would imagine it would be very labor intensive and quite
expensive.
