Winter may not be ideal for major exterior renovations, but it is one of the best times for inspections and preventative care.
Areas to Inspect During Winter
Focus on:
● Stucco walls and corners
● Window and door transitions
● Roof lines and flashing areas
● Drainage paths and downspouts
Key Maintenance Tasks
● Look for new or worsening cracks
● Check sealant and caulking
● Keep gutters clear
● Ensure water drains away from the foundation
● Watch for interior moisture signs
Planning Repairs for Spring
Winter inspections help homeowners plan repairs before damage spreads and before spring demand increases.
Final Thoughts
Stucco issues do not fix themselves. Early detection makes repairs easier and more cost effective.
