When it comes to Stucco repair, there are some things we need to address like:So, you’ve noticed signs of damage, and you need to get your stucco fixed. What next?
You can replace your stucco with traditional stucco or try out synthetic stucco, also known as EIFS.
​Let’s break down the difference between the two types of Stucco: 
Traditional Stucco
Traditional stucco is a time-tested material dating back over a hundred years. As we mentioned earlier, traditional stucco is created from a mixture of Portland cement, sand and water. It’s strong enough to be used on bridges and skyscrapers. so you can trust its durability.
Stucco also works as an effective form of insulation, helping keep your building cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Plus, traditional stucco is rather customizable, so it can easily be tailored to your needs.
The downsides of traditional stucco are that it’s rather susceptible to cracking, and it may come out a different color than intended depending on external factors like how hot it is and how long it takes to dry.
​
EIFS or Synthetic Stucco
EIFS is an acronym for Exterior Insulation Finish Systems that is also known as “synthetic stucco” because of how similar in appearance it is to traditional stucco. It is a multi-layered exterior finish that bonds together to form a protective finish that doesn’t breathe, making it weather resistant and vapor permeable.

The layers include an optional water-resistant barrier, an adhesive to attach insulation board to the supporting structure, a foam insulation board, a base coat, reinforcement mesh and a textured finishing coat.
You can easily tell if your building has EIFS instead of traditional stucco because EIFS sounds hollow when tapped on, as opposed to solid-sounding traditional stucco.
EIFS is considerably more crack-resistant than traditional stucco, but if moisture seeps into your walls from environmental or household causes, then it can get trapped between the layers and easily cause extensive damage.
If you choose to use EIFS stucco on your walls, it’s important to stay vigilant when looking for signs of water damage or disrepair.
​
Partial Stucco Repair/ Patch Work
If you catch the damage early enough, your walls may be able to be repaired without a full replacement. Smaller cracks or individual areas of loose stucco are able to be patched up by a professional.
By detecting the cracks and patches early, you can save thousands of dollars on repairs. That’s why it’s important to look for signs early and take them seriously.
