Stucco Siding Costs, Maintenance and Pros & Cons<\/h4>\n

Stucco has a long, rich history. It dates back to ancient Greek and Roman architecture. It gained widespread popularity in Europe during the Renaissance. And it was a favorite of iconic American architect Frank Lloyd Wright.<\/p>\n

Today, we often associate stucco with Spanish-style homes in the Southwest. But the siding material is growing in popularity in other regions of the country, particularly with homeowners who want something more natural looking than vinyl but easier to maintain than wood.<\/p>\n

Synthetic stucco is closer to $5 to $8 per square foot installed<\/strong>. That works out to a total project cost of $7,500 to $12,000<\/strong> for 1,500 square feet and $12,500 to $20,000<\/strong> for 2,500 square feet. <\/p>\n

About Stucco Siding <\/h4>\n

Stucco is made using a blend of lime, silica sand, cement and water. The contractor applies several layers of the sand and lime mixture, wetting each layer in between. After that, a final color coat is applied.<\/p>\n

Different types of cement are used in the mixture, depending on your climate and the texture you\u2019d like: smooth, swirled or raked. Rocks or sand can be added to create a rough finish. The stucco\u2019s color can come from a pigment that is part of the mixture, or the stucco can be painted when the job is complete.<\/p>\n
