"I hired JLF Construction to finish some spackle and paint our nursery. I wish I never did. I had Jose come out to give a quote. He looked everything over and immediately shot of a price way too high for what the scope of work was. I was providing all materials and tools just needed labor. I told him we would think it over and get back to him. From that day on he continued to harass me with phone calls and texts wanting me to hire him. Finally I explained we felt the price was too high and we'd be getting additional quotes. He then negotiated down to what I thought was a fair price and we hired him. He sold me on how he had over 40 years of experience. Showing pictures of work he recently completed that we liked. We set up a day for him to come out and do the work. I was working when he had the availability and my wife was home. She text me saying there were 3 people here total and she didn't think it was going too well. She said she thinks I need to look everything over but he was demanding payment and wouldn't leave. I text Jose and explained I wouldn't agree to pay until I was home to see the work completed. To my amazement when I got home the room looked awful. He had let his 20 year old son who had no experience cut in the paint. Lines weren't straight, paint on my ceiling in some areas and other areas paint didn't even go all the way up the wall and it wasn't a double coat cut in. The white paint under showed through where they cut in. I immediately called Jose expressing my concerns and he started threatening me, insulting me and telling me I want something for nothing. He threatened to come to my house the next day. My wife who is pregnant was afraid so I agreed to just pay him. He then offered to send his son back out but he refused to come fix it himself since he wasn't the one who did the cutting in. I refused. I was so disappointed after seeing all of his great reviews. I wish I never came across his business. We had to pay a professional painter to come out and fix the issues. Luckily they didn't try to change and arm and a leg. If I could tell anyone to look elsewhere when considering these guys I would. Also, just a side note he had his sons wash out the paint in my yard causing my grass to die. I had them on camera the entire time doing it and asked multiple times to please stop since I pay for lawn treatments. This entire experience ended up costing me more than what we budgeted."

"John and his team did fantastic work on this project! There were 2 major aspects of my exterior restoration project. First was to remove failing stucco off the brick front face. This uncovered damaged headers that needed to be replaced, along with some brick work that needed to be restored. Second phase was to restore the bricks, replace the broken headers, and repoint. John's team lovingly restored the original 1920's bricks (even going out to Harrisburg to find matching bricks!), beautifully refinished the base beside the sidewalk, and installed a dryer vent. Everyone on the team was very communicative throughout the entire process, and left me with a lovely restored Philly row home! I would not hesitate to recommend Keystone Brick & Stucco for your exterior masonry needs."

Stucco inspection frequency should be tailored to your climate conditions. Homes in humid or rainy environments benefit from annual inspections, while those in drier regions may only need evaluations every three years. Properties with previous moisture issues or older homes may require more frequent monitoring. Regular assessments help catch small problems before they escalate into expensive repairs.
Look for stucco inspectors with specialized training in exterior cladding systems and moisture detection techniques. Ideal candidates should understand local building codes and industry standards for proper stucco installation. Verify their experience with stucco specifically, as general home inspectors may lack the specialized knowledge needed for thorough stucco evaluation. Professional affiliations and positive client references further indicate quality service.
Even the most thorough stucco inspection has limitations. While professional evaluations can identify many issues, some problems may remain hidden within wall assemblies. Combining multiple inspection methods provides the most comprehensive assessment. Visual inspections, moisture readings, and selective probe testing together offer better detection capabilities than any single approach, though some deeply concealed issues might still escape detection.
Standard stucco inspections require one to three hours to complete, depending on your home's size and complexity. More comprehensive evaluations involving moisture mapping or extensive testing will extend this timeframe. Multi-story homes, complex architectural features, and difficult access points may all increase the time needed for a thorough inspection. Your inspector should provide a time estimate when scheduling the service.
