A Classic Exterior That Endures for Generations

Stucco siding has remained a favorite exterior finish for decades thanks to its timeless beauty, natural insulation, and durable performance. At Auburn Siding, we install premium stucco systems engineered specifically for Washington’s cool, damp climate — built to resist moisture, temperature changes, and everyday wear.

Whether you prefer a traditional smooth surface or a more modern textured design, stucco can be customized with a variety of finishes and colors to match your style. Our experienced installers ensure a long-lasting, seamless application that enhances curb appeal while providing lasting protection for your home year after year.

Stucco Repair and Reapplication

Even the best stucco exteriors can develop cracks, fading, or surface wear over time due to age or shifting foundations. That’s where our team comes in. We offer professional stucco repair, patching, and full reapplication services to restore your home’s original beauty.

Our process begins with a detailed inspection to identify hidden issues such as trapped moisture or structural movement. We then repair or replace damaged areas, apply new coats, and finish with a color and texture that blends perfectly with your existing façade.

Understanding Stucco: Strength, Style & Application

Stucco is a cement-based exterior coating applied in layers over a reinforced lath or insulated sheathing. Once cured, it forms a tough, breathable shell that stands up to wind, rain, and moisture — ideal for the Pacific Northwest’s wet weather conditions.

Its breathable nature allows vapor to escape while keeping water from seeping in, which helps prevent rot and mildew. That makes stucco a great option for homes in Auburn, Kent, and nearby Washington areas where moisture protection is key.

From a design standpoint, stucco offers endless creative possibilities. It can be smooth, textured, patterned, or even shaped into decorative architectural details. Homeowners can choose from subtle neutral tones, rich earthy colors, or custom pigments to complement any architectural style — from classic craftsman to sleek contemporary homes.

When applied correctly, stucco can last for 50 years or more. Traditional three-coat stucco systems provide excellent durability and depth, while one-coat systems are ideal for newer constructions or remodels where efficiency is a priority. Our experts will help you understand the differences and recommend the best system for your home’s needs and budget.

In addition to its longevity, stucco contributes to energy performance by adding thermal mass — meaning it helps regulate indoor temperatures by slowly absorbing and releasing heat. This creates a more stable indoor climate and can reduce overall energy use.

At Auburn Siding, every stucco project is handled with precision, craftsmanship, and care. From preparation to final finish, we deliver results that are not only visually stunning but also built to stand strong against Washington’s ever-changing weather.
