Installing stucco is a labor intense process that is very unforgiving on your back. We stopped bidding on stucco installation because we are getting older and our backs are telling us we should leave this type of work for younger generation. So if you are looking for a stucco installation quote - we don't bid on this type of project any more. Sorry. Please visit our website for a current list of project we bid on. www.housepaintinginphoenix.com
I stuccoed my home 23 years ago. I used a acoustical spray gun and sprayed my cement block directly onto the block. I made sure the blocks were layer neat and clean to start. Sprayed water on the block and sprayed on my stucco . It’s been 23 years in the heat of Baja California and I recommend it to anyone
This is what's about to be done on a new apt. next door to where I live. Interesting to see how the wall will look after the blocks are covered with the stucco. Much better, since my window looks right out on this wall!
Very clear tutorial! The customer should of went with a finish coat, as you can still see the outlines of the cylinder block. What percentage would the cost of a second coat have increased the project by? Why do you prefer Sherwin Williams and Dunn Edwards over Behr? Thanks.
Question; working with an older original, unpainted block wall, would a stucco application eliminate any need for joint tuck-pointing with mortar? Also, would a half-round block cap be applied by hand instead of a trowel tool?
I live in Golden Valley/Kingman Arizona we have colder weather then the Phoenix area is there anything you do different to a stucco wall that has finish coat. How long would the stucco last verses painting it.
Is a cement mixer necessary for mixing stucco if you're doing a whole back yard fence? Also do u have a video on the second application that the customer on this job didn't want and what is the difference? Thank you
Would one be able to mix some color medium in when first mixing up the stucco? Even if it's a "tint" of whatever color. Thanks. Great video by the way. Excellent narration with the video.
home depot sells stucco with a few different colors. Not sure if there would a color for a base coat, but for a finish coat you can definitely use colored stucco.
It looks like the thickness you applied is only about 1/4"....is that right? Would you say that the consistency of the stucco is about the same as mortar for setting block....or is it a little thinner?
Ideally the base coat is fully cured (about 30 days ) before applying finish coat. But don't take my word for it. I am a painting expert not stucco expert. Go with your stucco contractor recommendation.
Great video, thank you! Two questions: what do you have to do to make the stucco stick well if the concrete wall has already been painted and we’re going over the top with stucco? Would there be any issues with water/moisture ruining the stucco if you only finish one side of the cinderblock wall and leave the other side open? Thanks
About your second question that nobody answered. I’m no pro but I can say it’s best to water proof the backside. Depends also hood the core is filled with concrete and how much rain / water gets to other side. If it’s a retaining wall then I’d say absolutely waterproof the back side. I just did mine. And am now going to stucco the front side. Black mold can build up and show eventually.
What are the benefits of the top coat? You mentioned one or two things. Also, I see you’re in Phoenix. I’m in Nevada! Hey! About how long should one wait between two coats? You said it was warm. But those of us I’m Arizona and Nevada know that 100 is warm. I don’t want it to dry too fast I’d I decide to do this.
After watching a few videos on youtube it looks very fast but also very messy. We are a painting company and unless you are a stucco company that has a high volume of stucco jobs i do not think it is worth buying.
Great video! Would the process be the same for slump block? I live west of I-17 and my house (as many in this area) is slump block. I always thought stucco needed chicken wire or something to adhere it to the Block.
Hello and thank you for the tutorial. What if the cinder block is already painted? Can we follow the same procedures outlined in the video? Thank you and take care.
Does stucco protect against water? My cinder blocks are disenegrating from my sprinklers. Also, do you fix stucco? I have a few dents/2 holes on house stucco. I'm in Phoenix.
stucco does not protect against water. you would need to adjust your sprinklers. we do not fix stucco as a stand along project, we do minor repairs only when we repaint entire house as a part of prep work. Please visit our website for the list of services we offer. www.housepaintinginphoenix.com/

Great tutorial. Excellent job narrating the steps and use of graphics outlining products/tools used. You made the process look very simple and clean.
How about it. I need this guy to give me tutorials on everything. I'd be super successful 😅
By far the best video I've seen explaining how something is done. I wish you were on the east coast.

Very Good Instructions. Would like you guys to do my fence. Looks like you're in the Phoenix AZ area. I'll give you a call!
awesome ❤
What would use on a larger project to deal with the droppings?
Excellent video. Thanks!

Glad it helped
Hi there, great video. Do you have to fix cracks etc. in block wall with mortar prior to doing stucco or does the stucco solidify those issues?
Would one be able to mix some color medium in when first mixing up the stucco? Even if it's a "tint" of whatever color. Thanks. Great video by the way. Excellent narration with the video.
home depot sells stucco with a few different colors. Not sure if there would a color for a base coat, but for a finish coat you can definitely use colored stucco.
Muito legal!!!!
Thanks very helpful
You could use a sandtex paint to finish the wall..
Good video. What specific Terracotta colors did you use for the primer and finish coat? Love the finish coat color. Thanks.
Excellent video & narration. Thanks.👍
Can you tell me how many sqft an 80lbs bags cover please?
27 square feet at 3/8" is about the coverage if I recall
It looks like the thickness you applied is only about 1/4"....is that right? Would you say that the consistency of the stucco is about the same as mortar for setting block....or is it a little thinner?
Great video. Was the primer and paint sprayed on? What type of sprayer? Thanks!
Here is the video of priming and painting. czcams.com/video/dYeX5Zx1ipM/video.html
Thank you for the helpful video. Can you tell me how many days you should wait between the base coat and the finish coat (not paint)?
Ideally the base coat is fully cured (about 30 days ) before applying finish coat. But don't take my word for it. I am a painting expert not stucco expert. Go with your stucco contractor recommendation.
Do you have to water wall before painting?
What does the sponge do?
Great video very informative and well explained, I have a question what’s the average cost of it and is it by linear foot or yard?
Currently we don't bid on stucco installation. Painting of stucco only.
Gracias...
Great video, thank you!
Two questions: what do you have to do to make the stucco stick well if the concrete wall has already been painted and we’re going over the top with stucco?
Would there be any issues with water/moisture ruining the stucco if you only finish one side of the cinderblock wall and leave the other side open?
Thanks
Paint stripper or sand blasting to remove the paint.
I would use surface bonding cement if you have a painted block wall.
About your second question that nobody answered. I’m no pro but I can say it’s best to water proof the backside. Depends also hood the core is filled with concrete and how much rain / water gets to other side. If it’s a retaining wall then I’d say absolutely waterproof the back side. I just did mine.

But those of us I’m Arizona and Nevada know that 100 is warm. I don’t want it to dry too fast I’d I decide to do this.
Can it be sprayed on will it where better.
VERY WELL DONE, THANKS FOR SHARING
What do you think about a hopper sprayer to apply the mud faster?
After watching a few videos on youtube it looks very fast but also very messy. We are a painting company and unless you are a stucco company that has a high volume of stucco jobs i do not think it is worth buying.
Ty very much
Great video! Would the process be the same for slump block? I live west of I-17 and my house (as many in this area) is slump block. I always thought stucco needed chicken wire or something to adhere it to the Block.
Never applied stucco to a slump block before so i am not sure . sorry.
You don’t lath (chicken wire and paper) block walls.
Hello and thank you for the tutorial. What if the cinder block is already painted? Can we follow the same procedures outlined in the video? Thank you and take care.
you have to apply adhesive first. czcams.com/video/BxdNgg3_eQQ/video.html
ABN Painting awesome! Thank you very much.
Let’s say that gate were to come off the top, how would you continue that wall? Knock the top edge of stucco off and lay the blocks?
what kind of block is that?
My back aches just watching this. Wall looks amazing! Where in AZ are you located?
north phoenix
@@ABNPainting is Surprise, AZ too far to travel for work. We'd love our house and block wall painted by you!
What La Habra product would you use for the finish final coat? Thank You
www.homedepot.com/p/LaHabra-Stucco-Texture-Coat-in-Paint-Grade-Finish-1248/303464451
can you do the same with lime?
Is it possible to do light gray color or other colors?
That was great, Thank you
Can you recommend a similar company in Queen Creek AZ?
This is what I wanted to do but I’m worried because there’s cracks in the grout lines and holes at the bottom in some places.
Is there a decorative pattern that can be done on the top coat?
we specialize in painting not stucco, so we don't do decorative stucco patterns, but in general any pattern can be done on top coat.
What material is used to make the mix? First layer
Great ez to understand . Those are good brand paints but hella expensive $$$$$

What would the cost for that job you did.
What if my cylinder block wall is chipping away, but still sturdy, is there something I should do differently ?
i am not able to give you recommendation without looking at it.
Will this technique work for a brick firepit? Could the same paint be used/
technique should work. as far as materials (stucco/paint) you would need something that is heat resistant.
