Stucco can help to protect your exterior walls and home while also adding a great aesthetic appeal to the exterior walls. We offer both synthetic stucco and traditional stucco, and we’d like to go over a few key differences between the two options.

Synthetic Stucco vs. Traditional Stucco

  • Application: Traditional stucco is a cement-based product used to act as the siding for your home. You apply it and patch it as needed similarly to cement as well. Synthetic stucco is applied in multiple layers to provide optimal protection for your home.
  • Benefits: Both synthetic stucco and traditional stucco offer protection for your home, but the multiple layers of synthetic stucco allow it to have insulating qualities and can prevent moisture from seeping into the walls of your home.
  • Visual appeal: Both synthetic stucco and traditional stucco can add great aesthetic appeal to the exterior of your home. Neither one is better than the other but about the same. That way, you can enjoy the protection these siding materials provide while also enjoying a great appearance for your home.
