Good Evening, Jocelyn, this is something I have filmed before, however, we don't do the painting. our patchwork should be cured for at least 28 days before the homeowner or contractor paints. FYI, I notice all the patchwork in exterior plastering that I have ever done or by all others, "always," as this is what I do for a living, no one can patch a door, window or anything else I can't notice immediately. The idea is I do the best I can for folks when hired when painted has every patch I've done over the years matched perfectly? No. Stucco patching cannot be done throughout one's lifetime and be perfect every time. This unrealistic talent is not for a mortal man. However, if folks are sitting in a hot tub getting drunk and high, and thoughts of exciting conversations or sex, is dominated by, "Hey, who did that bad patchwork?" Then there's a problem with my repairs. Thus, I would have to repair once more at my expense. Peace, love and happiness to all. Sharing stucco wisdom with Kirk Giordano plastering

Hold the your trowel like this : perpendicular to the forearm, thumb on edge pointing finger and middle finger to the handle. Adjust angle of trowel with the thumb. Half my new guys improve a lot using this holding method.

Howdy Dudes, As a rule, I always prefer a trowel at least 2 to 4 inches longer than the largest hawk which is 14 inches, for reason of not dropping/spilling mud when working 8 hour days. Heres a question for you to ask your fellow plasterers, I've already interviewed about 20, so I know the answer, to the question I am going to propose you ask, your fellow plasterers, "why do you take mud for the top of your hawk?" That method technically involves pulling mud while at the same time twisting he hawk for your next pull, then repeat until your hawk is empty. The average plasterer does this time-consuming technique from 3 to 6 times to empty his hawk, plus drops much mud in the process. My method and millions of others are to tilt the fully loaded hawk slightly downwards and allow gravity to drop the mud on my congo trowel, apply this mud to the wall, then turn the hawk once more, to tilt the remaining mud on my hawk once more for my next and often the last trowelful. This method takes on average two moves to empty mud from my Plastering hawk. FYI, when anyone starts to apply cement plaster at first, there are muscles in your forearm, wrist and deltoid and shoulders that you more than likely didn’t know existed. These muscles are rarely used in everyday living. Thus they will feel like they are on fire or swell up when you start to apply plaster, no worries, this is an excellent sign of unused and still weak muscles, not hurt muscles. then when that beautiful pain is gone, begin again. Your wrist, forearms or shoulders will burn, but that's o.k. For the average person, it takes a week or two to get those unused muscles strong enough to move mud where you want it. FYI, if you fall off a bike and hurt your leg, that's a bad pain or soreness, to strengthen muscles you didn’t know you had, this effort creates a beautiful soreness.

Good Evening, Sharkey, I have heard this before, however, it takes as a rule 28 days for the stucco to cure before painting. it's tough enough to make videos let alone have to keep track of when a homeowner may decide to paint.

Good evening old timer from another old timer. Depends, is it leaking, If not no worries you can cover with stucco or any other material. If it is leaking I'd recommend tearing it out, waterproofing it, then putting it back together.

Howdy Kevv Dude, I would call a few insulation companies to have it blown in the walls through the stucco, make sure their repair of the stucco is satisfactory, ask questions. Most insulation companies hire the best-trained people and use quality materials. While sadly, some businesses are so greedy in making money they use cheap materials plus dont hire, competent people, not realizing they will be hurting their own company in the long run. Read reviews, as with computer reviews, they tell an honest story about businesses and their practices.

Evening Rick Dude, no worries easy enough question. Your walls have studs more than likely true 2x4's the lath used was cedar lath which has grooves in them every inch for the stucco to catch and hold. This type of exterior cedar lath often separates from the stucco in vibration type of areas such as doors. This excellent wood lath was used in the late 1890's to about 1915. It lasts for hundreds of years more or less depending on all the homeowner's attention to painting are considered. You can drill a few holes, and squeeze some Sikalex polyurethane caulking which is the strongest sealant and adhesive every manufactured then screw back together. Drill the holes then place a countersink at the head so the screws will fit perfectly, you only need half a tube if the area is about a foot in all directions. Leave the screws in than caulk over them, so they don't show. This is one way, there are many more expensive ways such as tear the area in question out and fix. Over the wood lath, you must know where to stop, or the whole wall will go. Lastly, if you screw the screws too tight they will bust the wall and hold nothing, this is a delicate fix.
