Stucco Repair in Colorado Springs
Even the most well-installed stucco finish can develop cracks, blistering, or surface damage over time. Colorado Springs is tough on exteriors. Between the freeze-thaw cycles, hailstorms, intense UV exposure, and high winds, your stucco takes a lot of punishment year after year. When issues do pop up, the key is addressing them quickly before small problems turn into costly ones.
Greg Unseth Painting & Exteriors has been handling stucco repair for residential and commercial properties throughout Colorado Springs and the surrounding Front Range communities for over 40 years. Whether you’re dealing with hairline cracks, impact damage from a hailstorm, or larger sections that need to be replaced, our team has the experience to get it done right.
Common Stucco Problems in Colorado Springs
Colorado’s climate creates some unique challenges for stucco exteriors. Here are the most common issues we see on Front Range properties:
Hairline cracking is the most common stucco issue and is often caused by the dramatic temperature swings Colorado Springs experiences between seasons. While hairline cracks are largely cosmetic, they should still be monitored and sealed to prevent moisture from working its way in over time.
Larger cracks and blistering are typically caused by moisture intrusion, improper installation, or foundation movement. These need to be addressed promptly. When water gets behind stucco it can cause significant damage to the underlying structure if left untreated.
Hail damage is a fact of life on the Front Range. A bad hailstorm can leave pitting, divots, and surface damage across your entire exterior. Our team has repaired stucco on hundreds of Colorado Springs properties following hail events and knows exactly what to look for during an assessment.
Residential Stucco Repair in Colorado Springs
Whether your home has a few small cracks or needs a more significant repair, Greg Unseth Painting & Exteriors has the expertise to restore your stucco to its original condition. We color match carefully so repairs blend seamlessly with your existing finish, and we use the same high-quality materials on repair work as we do on full installations.
If your home has older stucco that has seen better days, we can also assess whether a full stucco installation might be a better long-term investment than ongoing repairs. We’ll give you an honest recommendation either way.
Commercial Stucco Repair in Colorado Springs
Damaged or deteriorating stucco on a commercial property sends the wrong message to your customers. Greg Unseth Painting & Exteriors works with business owners throughout Colorado Springs to keep their exteriors looking sharp and well-maintained. We understand that commercial repairs need to be done efficiently and with minimal disruption to your operations, and we schedule our work accordingly.
Our Stucco Repair Process
Every stucco repair starts with a thorough assessment of the damage. We identify the root cause of the problem so we’re not just patching the surface and leaving underlying issues in place. From there we remove any damaged or deteriorated material, prepare the surface properly, and apply new stucco in layers to match the existing finish as closely as possible.
For larger repairs we follow the same multi-coat process used in our full stucco installations, including a scratch coat, brown coat, and finish coat. We use Total Wall Elastomeric Stucco by Sherwin Williams for finish work wherever possible, giving repaired areas the same crack-resistant, weather-tough properties as a brand new installation.
When Should You Repair vs. Replace Your Stucco?
This is one of the most common questions we get from Colorado Springs homeowners and business owners. The honest answer depends on the age of your stucco, the extent of the damage, and whether there are underlying moisture or structural issues at play.
Generally speaking, if your stucco is relatively new and the damage is isolated, repair is the right call. If your stucco is older, has widespread cracking, or has been compromised by moisture behind the surface, a full replacement may be the smarter long-term investment. We’ll walk you through the assessment honestly and give you our recommendation without any pressure.

Some signs are obvious, like visible cracks, chipping, or blistering on the surface. Others are less so, like soft spots, staining, or interior moisture issues that could point to water getting behind your stucco. If you notice any of these on your Colorado Springs property, it's worth having a professional take a look before the problem gets worse.
It depends on the extent of the damage. Small, isolated cracks are usually straightforward to repair. Widespread cracking, moisture damage behind the stucco, or older stucco that has reached the end of its lifespan may warrant a full replacement. We'll give you an honest assessment and recommendation during your free estimate.
Most minor stucco repairs can be completed in a day or two. Larger repairs that require multiple coats will take longer due to the necessary curing time between coats. We'll give you a clear timeline before any work begins.
We do our best to color and texture match repaired areas to your existing stucco finish. Keep in mind that older stucco may have faded over time, which can make a perfect match challenging. We'll be upfront with you about what to expect before we start.
Absolutely. Hail damage is one of the most common reasons Colorado Springs homeowners call us for stucco repair. We've assessed and repaired hail damage on hundreds of Front Range properties and know exactly what to look for. If you've recently had a hailstorm come through, it's a good idea to have your exterior inspected sooner rather than later.
In many cases, stucco damage caused by hail or other weather events is covered by homeowners insurance. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to discuss your specific situation. We're happy to work with your adjuster and provide documentation of the damage if needed.
Regular inspection and maintenance are your best tools. Catching and sealing small cracks early prevents moisture from getting in and causing larger problems down the road. Colorado Springs freeze-thaw cycles can turn a minor crack into a major issue quickly, so keeping an eye on your exterior after each winter is a smart habit.
