Stucco Contractors in Edina, Minnesota
Stucco installation, repair, and remediation..
Stucco is a durable, fire-resistant exterior finish popular in the Southwest, Southeast, and increasingly across the country. Traditional three-coat stucco over metal lath provides excellent longevity when properly installed with adequate drainage planes and flashing. Synthetic stucco (EIFS — Exterior Insulation and Finish System) offers better insulation values but requires meticulous moisture management. Stucco cracking, staining, or bulging often indicates trapped moisture that can cause serious structural damage if not remediated promptly — stucco remediation involves removing the cladding, repairing substrate damage, and reinstalling with improved drainage.

General Stucco FAQs
How much does stucco repair cost?
Minor stucco crack repair costs $300–$800. Patching a section of damaged stucco runs $500–$2,000 depending on the area and whether the underlying lath or moisture barrier needs replacement. Full stucco remediation — removing the cladding, repairing moisture damage to sheathing and framing, and reinstalling with a proper drainage plane — can cost $15,000–$40,000 or more for a whole home. If you see bulging, staining, or widespread cracking, get a moisture inspection before committing to cosmetic repairs.
What causes stucco to crack?
Stucco cracking results from several causes: normal curing shrinkage (hairline cracks), foundation settling, thermal expansion and contraction, impact damage, and — most concerning — moisture trapped behind the stucco that causes substrate deterioration. Hairline cracks are cosmetic and can be sealed with elastomeric caulk. Wider cracks, pattern cracking, and cracks accompanied by staining or bulging often indicate moisture problems that require professional assessment. Proper drainage planes, flashing at windows and rooflines, and adequate caulking at penetrations prevent most moisture-related stucco failures.
