Stucco Siding
The most common use of stucco today is that of siding. Many homeowners across Pennsylvania love the aesthetically pleasing look of stucco. Stucco can be installed on the exterior of your home in place of vinyl or aluminum siding, brick, stone or any other material you normally see on a home.
Patios and Walls
Stucco can also be used for exterior hardscaping purposes such as patios. You can also build a stucco retaining wall or any the foundation for an outdoor seating area you desire. Brick and stone are not the only options for these types of fixtures.
Interior Uses
Stucco can also be used on the interior of your home. That’s right; you can have stucco installed inside your home. This most often happens when you are adding or updating a fireplace. If you so choose, stucco can also be installed on any wall of your home’s interior, if you so please.
