Upgrades with stucco make an old house look new again. Stucco has been in use since ancient times. Modern homes often have a stucco facade instead of solid stucco walls.

Instead of replacing the stucco, use a few steps to upgrade it while increasing the value of your property and reduce maintenance costs.
