Stucco Inspection Services
At Stucco Inspection Houston, we provide a full range of specialized stucco inspection services tailored to meet the unique needs of your home or commercial property. Whether you need a routine assessment, an in-depth diagnostic, or a follow-up inspection, our experienced team delivers thorough, reliable evaluations that protect the safety, performance, and curb appeal of your stucco exterior.
Visual Inspection
Our Visual Stucco Inspection is the essential first step in preserving both the appearance and structural integrity of your stucco-clad property. This non-invasive service helps uncover early warning signs of damage or wear, allowing for timely maintenance and peace of mind.
What We Look For:
-
Crack Patterns
We identify and assess cracks—whether hairline (a sign of settling) or more significant—flagging any that may point to deeper structural concerns. -
Discoloration & Staining
Visible stains or discoloration can signal hidden moisture issues. We document these signs to guide further investigation if needed. -
Efflorescence
This white, powdery residue may indicate water seepage. We evaluate its presence and potential sources. -
Stucco Texture & Consistency
We check for uniformity in the stucco’s surface, noting any bulges, soft spots, or separation that could signal material failure. -
Sealant & Caulking Condition
Around windows, doors, and joints, we inspect the integrity of all sealants to detect any points of potential water intrusion.
This inspection provides a clear picture of your stucco’s current condition and identifies whether further diagnostic steps—like probe testing—may be necessary.
Probe Inspection
Our Stucco Probe Inspection is a more in-depth and invasive service, specifically designed to go beyond surface-level issues and uncover hidden problems within your stucco system. This advanced diagnostic is crucial for understanding the true condition of your stucco, especially when signs of damage are present or when moisture intrusion is suspected.
What We Examine:
-
Moisture Levels
Using precision moisture meters, we detect elevated moisture content behind the stucco—an early indicator of potential water intrusion and hidden damage. -
Wall Assembly Integrity
Probing allows us to assess the internal construction of your wall system, including the lath installation quality and presence of drainage planes, which are essential for preventing long-term water issues. -
Material Composition & Application
We examine the condition of the stucco mix itself—evaluating the base coat, finish coat, and signs of improper application that could lead to failure. -
Attachment & Support Systems
We check the mechanical fasteners and support components to ensure the stucco is securely anchored and built to last.
This inspection provides critical insights that help property owners take proactive steps to protect their investment and avoid costly repairs down the line.
Re-Inspection
At Stucco Inspection Houston, our Re-Inspection service is a specialized follow-up offered exclusively to clients who have completed an initial inspection through us. This service is designed to verify the success of your repairs and ensure your stucco system continues to perform as intended.
What We Examine:
-
Repair Quality & Effectiveness
We thoroughly assess all completed repair work to confirm it meets industry standards and effectively resolves the original issues identified in the initial inspection. -
Post-Repair Stucco Integrity
Our team checks for recurring problems or new concerns in the repaired areas, ensuring that solutions are holding up under real-world conditions. -
Overall Stucco Health
In addition to the repaired zones, we conduct a general review of surrounding areas to verify that no new issues have developed during or after the repair process.
This final check gives you the confidence that your stucco system is restored and protected—backed by expert evaluation and unmatched attention to detail.
