Premium stucco repair done right the first time
Stucco cracks in Houston are usually movement cracks from foundation shifts, not catastrophic damage — but they have to be repaired correctly before paint, or they'll telegraph back through the new finish in a season.
PaintLux repairs hairline cracks with elastomeric patching, larger cracks with proper stucco mix and float, and re-coats damaged areas before sealing the entire surface with an elastomeric coating that bridges hairlines and waterproofs the wall.

Stucco Repair FAQs
Why does stucco crack in Houston?+
Our clay soils expand and contract with rainfall, which moves foundations and stresses stucco. Most stucco cracks are cosmetic, but they let water in and have to be sealed.
Can you match the existing stucco texture?+
Yes. We hand-float repairs to match knockdown, lace, or sand textures.
Is elastomeric coating worth it?+
On Houston stucco, almost always. It bridges hairline cracks, waterproofs the wall, and typically lasts 10–15 years.
Do you paint over the elastomeric?+
The elastomeric is the finish. It's tinted at the store to your chosen color.
