Signs You May Need Stucco Chimney Repair
A lot of chimneys in Florida are concrete block or wood framing finished in stucco. The stucco is the weather skin. When it cracks, bulges or loses its bond, water gets behind it and into the block or framing, and the damage is hidden until stains or soft spots show up.
- Cracks in the stucco, especially diagonal ones
- Bulging or hollow-sounding patches
- Rust stains bleeding through the finish
- Stucco pieces on the roof
- Damp or stained drywall near the chimney inside
What stucco cracks mean
Fine map cracks in stucco are common and often cosmetic. Straight or diagonal cracks that open over time point to movement in the chimney or the house. Rust stains mean metal lath or fasteners under the stucco are corroding from water. Bulges mean the stucco has lost its bond. We tap and probe to find out how far each problem goes.
Chimney stucco repair and parging
Small cracks are opened slightly, cleaned and filled with a flexible repair compound, then refinished. Loose sections are cut back to sound stucco, the base is repaired, and new coats are applied and textured to blend in. Chimney parging, a thin cement coat over block, is renewed where it has worn thin. On a block chimney, the crown and cap get checked too, since water from the top often shows up as cracks below.
When to restucco a chimney
If cracks cover most of the chimney or the stucco sounds hollow over large areas, patching becomes a losing battle. Restuccoing removes the old finish down to the block or lath and builds new coats from scratch. On framed chimneys, soft or rotted framing behind the stucco turns the job into chimney chase repair first.
