Professional Stucco Installation

Stucco is an essential part of your New Orleans home. Besides its many aesthetic uses, stucco helps to protect your house from mold and rot. In the New Orleans humidity it is one of the most important part of your home construction. Every durable build in New Orleans needs the highest quality stucco with the necessary spacing and finishing to protect against rotting, cracking, and crumbling.  Stucco – sometimes referred to as mortar – is a cement based siding most commonly applied to the exterior walls. It’s applied wet and dries hard to form a dense, solid surface that endures and protects.  At Eagle Construction we’ve invested heavily in proper training applying stucco because our clients live in an extreme environment for moisture. If you require a stucco contractor for help with fresh stucco or stucco repair work, you’re in the right place. Learn more about what we’re offering by reading below.

Installation and Repair

The stucco service packages that we offer can be broadly split into two categories, repair and fresh installation. Our team has several experts in Stucco installation which is why we are the go-to new construction stucco contractors in New Orleans. Stucco is popular because of its durability and affordability. The biggest risk to the longevity of your stucco is moisture often from improper installation. By hiring professionals the first time you can extend the life and quality of your stucco walls. However, if you are noticing cracks or stains our team can come out and assess the state of your stucco to determine what next steps will be necessary to protect your home. Our team will lay out the pros and cons of repair vs. replacement from a durability and financial perspective so you can make the best decision. If you cannot afford to revisit the stucco on your project in a few years hire New Orlean's best stucco contractors, Eagle Construction.

Long-lasting Service

Any time you add siding, the main consideration should be durability. Siding can be expensive, plus it’s a disruption while the construction lasts. Properly installed Stucco has a lifespan of 50-80 years, with some of the lowest annual maintenance costs. To achieve that lifespan in our humid climate the standard of installation needs to be a bit higher than other parts of the country which is why we are so meticulous with each project on this phase. 

Durable Resilience

For the most part, stucco is used as a siding for property exteriors. High storms, heavy moisture, and high humidity common to New Orleans attacks the wood frames of the house. Stucco gives a layer of protection to this when properly applied.  Long-term UV exposure and repeated treatments of rainy weather have the potential to seriously damage property exteriors – and that’s ignoring the possibility of stormy winds and even hurricanes. It’ll be a relief to hear, then, that stucco is highly resilient and even fire resistant.

Visual Versatility

Stucco is also popular because of it's amazing versatility. We can change the color and texture of stucco to fit the style of any home. When we work on historic homes we always need to match the texture to fit the design of the time and our team has grown quite adept at this skill.

If you are adding or changing walls then stucco may be an integral part of the conversation. Having a contractor who can understand your vision, make the practical recommendations needed to execute and protect your vision, and competently execute your project on time and under budget is easily the most important part of choosing a partner to build your new home.
