Why Stucco Works in Florida
Stucco is a cement-based coating that forms a seamless, durable surface. It’s ideal for coastal cities like Hillsboro Shores or Verano because it resists moisture, heat, and strong winds.
Common Stucco Finishes
- Traditional (Three-Coat): A layered system offering long-term durability.
- EIFS (Synthetic): Lightweight and energy-efficient, common in newer builds.
- Smooth Finish: Minimalist and clean, ideal for modern architecture.
- Sand or Lace Texture: Adds character and works well with Spanish or Mediterranean-style homes.
How to Choose the Right Finish
- Climate Needs: Most stucco types handle Florida weather well, but EIFS adds insulation.
- Design Goals: Smooth finishes give a sleek look; textured ones add warmth and depth.
- Budget: Traditional stucco is often more affordable upfront.
Stucco Maintenance Tips
Keep your stucco looking great by sealing minor cracks and cleaning it yearly. Avoid pressure washers — a mild soap and hose will do. For expert repairs or full resurfacing, work with a licensed stucco contractor.
