The Dynamic Advantage

 The Last couple weeks have been fun, inspiring, busy, and warmer!  We had an amazing opportunity to join the crew at No Payne Roofing  on their podcast. We were joined by another amazing guy from a long standing, and top notch stucco repair company Dave at NexGen Stucco . We had the opportunity to talk about the crazy stucco environment in Calgary. From drastic weather to poor workmanship. We Always look for ways to better ourselves and our clients experience with information, new products, new techniques, and great people/ companies in the construction field.

  Spring is coming and we are starting to get out and look at peoples homes for stucco repair, stucco painting, and parging. Calls are coming in for woodpecker holes, snow shovel damages, parging repairs, and flaking paint. Is this something on your mind? Most stucco damages are superficial but sometimes we can find leaking issues, breakdown in the building envelope, and other mishaps that comes with Canada's ever changing climate. If you give us a call we can come out and give you a free estimate on the work you need done. That way you can focus on that manicured lawn, or prized rose bush!

'           Over the last 15 year that I have been doing stucco repair, I have found many issues. But over the last year or two I have been noticing a tend in a whole new direction. Sloppy, careless, and insulting work practices.            Over the next few blogs ill be exposing some of the things we have found during stucco inspections and repair estimates.            This picture is from one of our great clients that was taken advantage of by a window company. The stucco was cut back on the window and new window installed. After completing the window installation, the installer hid his damages instead of fixing them.            You can see in the picture there is raw lumber exposed under the window frame. Just below that is a layer of black paper covered with a wire. The problem here is the lack of building envelope. where that raw lumber is exposed i...

  Stucco leaks... why so many stucco leaks? Conventional stucco is a breathable stucco. This is something that is very important to know. As defined by webster's dictionary stucco is:  · 1 a: a fine plaster used in decoration and ornamentation (as of interior walls) b: a material usually made of Portland cement, sand, and a small percentage of lime and applied in a plastic state to form a hard covering for exterior walls  This leaves stucco as a breathable coating.       Water is absorbed by stucco and continues to travel to the envelope. This is why your house envelope is so important.       On this project the home owner had leaks from the time of purchase as the second owner, and had a company come and "repair" the stucco to solve the leaks. Unfortunately, the company’s inexperience made the problem worse.       The entire stucco on this rear wall had to be removed to rectify this problem including the other r...
