What is Stucco ?
Traditional stucco consists of portland cement-based materialsand sand, mixed with water to form a workable plaster. Portlandcement plaster is applied either by hand or machine to exteriorand interior wall surfaces in two or three coats.
Stucco, or portland cement plaster, is a versatile facing material
that can be applied to flat or curved surfaces either inside or
outside any building or structure.Stucco has been used for more than a century as a surface finish
because of its utility, low first cost, and minimum need for
maintenance.

Repairing Damaged Stuccostucco is inherently not a particularly permanent or long-lasting
building material. Regular maintenance is required to keep it in
good condition.Earlier, building owners employed a variety of means to prolong
its usefulness. The most common treatment was to whitewash
stucco. The lime in the whitewash offered protection and stability
and helped to harden the stucco.
Most importantly, it filled hairline
cracks before they could develop
into larger cracks and let in
moisture.
To improve water repellency,stucco buildings were also
sometimes coated with paraffin,
another type of wax, or other
stucco-like coatings, such as oil
mastics.
