Stucco restoration involves repairing and refreshing existing stucco to improve its appearance and fix minor damage like cracks or discoloration. It is primarily cosmetic and aimed at extending the stucco's life. Stucco remediation, on the other hand, addresses underlying issues such as water intrusion, mold, or structural damage caused by improper installation or failed materials. Remediation involves a more extensive process, often requiring the removal and replacement of damaged stucco and underlying materials to ensure the building's integrity and prevent future problems. Restoration focuses on aesthetics, while remediation prioritizes resolving deeper issues.
