Q: What is kick-out flashing?
A: Kick-out flashing is used to help water run-off at key connecting points of a building. For example, where roofing meets a stucco wall is a critical area to install kick-out flashing to prevent water damage to the stucco wall. The flashing will help to divert the water away from the wall so moisture damage doesn’t become a problem. See our roofing page for more common roofing issues related to water damage.

Q: How long does stucco last?
A: Stucco essentially lasts forever. Your stucco finish may develop cracks, peel, even discolor at some point, but those issues are easily fixed with a little stucco repair and depends on many variables including climate.

Q: I am buying a home that has stucco. What are some warning signs I should look for when inspecting the stucco?
