Stucco Repair & Restoration in Macon, GA

Old walls need the right mix

Intown Macon, Vineville and the streets around Mercer University hold a large collection of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century houses and churches, and downtown is lined with historic commercial blocks. Some of these buildings have original stucco or a stucco coat over brick, and many have been patched over the years with whatever was on hand.

Older stucco tends to be softer and more vapor-open than modern portland cement mixes. A hard, dense patch can trap moisture in the brick and crack at its edges, which is why we look closely at the existing material before choosing a repair mix. On a historic facade, the goal is a repair that looks right, lets the wall breathe and lasts.

Macon’s newer commercial buildings, including hotels near the interstates and medical offices and shopping centers in North Macon, use EIFS and modern stucco that need sealant, flashing and coating care. Start with hard coat stucco, stucco moldings or commercial services.
