Stucco

Stucco and plaster work that matches the surface around it

Stucco cracks, plaster settles, and patches are obvious when the texture doesn't match. We install new stucco, repair cracks and damage, and match the existing finish so the repair blends into the wall — whether it's a smooth coat, a sand finish, or traditional three-coat stucco.

Stucco & Plaster by Mario's Drywall & Paint

Stucco work in Santa Ana covers both repair and new installation. On the repair side, hairline cracks from settling are common in Orange County homes — we route them open, fill with a flexible sealant or stucco patch, and blend the texture to match. Larger damage from impacts or water gets cut back to the lath, re-lathed, and re-coated with the matching finish.

For new stucco, we apply the traditional three-coat system — scratch, brown, and finish — over properly installed lath and weather barrier. The finish coat is where the look comes from: smooth, sand, or textured, color-integrated or painted. We match existing finishes so additions and patches read as one continuous surface.

Plaster repair covers interior plaster walls and ceilings — cracks, holes, and water damage on older Orange County homes with lath-and-plaster construction. We patch with matching plaster, not drywall compound, so the repair behaves like the surrounding material and doesn't telegraph a different texture under paint.
