Dap 10504 All-Purpose Ready-to-Use Stucco Patch, 1-Quart

Works well and matches most stucco exteriors.

Any of us that have stucco houses know, maintenance is necessary. And sometimes trades drill holes in the stucco, and over time the reason they drilled these holes has passed. Things like legacy electrical boxes, legacy phone service, legacy cable service. You know what you don't want? Those holes to lead to water intrusion. All stucco is textured; the patch is quite unlikely to match the same texture. This is reality. If it matches, consider yourself lucky. If you want a perfect match call a professional to mix up some patch as they will know how to match the texture. If you want a DIY repair, patch it yourself. No, the texture didn't match for me, but it was better than holes and with a coat of paint you can still see that it was repaired once. I can live with that; my house isn't perfect as it has been lived in many years. The stucco patch can in plastic tub, the lid was securely fastened. It was easy to use; if you can use a small trowel and patch drywall you use the same technique to patch stucco. I was able to complete minor stucco repairs prior to paint. Are those repairs perfect? No, but that reflects on me and the limitations of the material (e.g. texture) and not the stucco patch itself.

I own a stucco house. Every spring, I go around the house tapping with a mallet to dislodge anything that came loose in the previous year, and then to repair those parts. Over the last 10 years, I believe I have repaired about 1/3 of the stucco on my house. It's the trade-off. Stucco is extremely easy to repair as long as the damage isn't too deep, but it's a constant ongoing process. I ran out of the stuff I normally use, and both my nearby Ace and Home Depot were sold out. The price on Amazon had quadrupled, so I decided to try this. My overall impression is that it is not as good as what I was previously using. For superficial cracks and smally holes, it actually works great. The compound is extremely pliable when working with cracks. When repairing damaged sections, though, it lacks quite a bit to be desired. I had to repair two sections. On both sections, I had a lot of trouble getting this compound to properly adhere. One section was a fairly large area, about 2' x 2', where the surface had fallen off. The concrete-like under layer, even after thoroughly cleaning, had a very difficult time holding onto this. The other area, a decent sized hole had developed, and I needed to use a screen. On that area, I applied a good three coats. The screen held the compound better, but it still lacked a lot to be desired. It also didn't texture very well. With the old stucco patch I used, I have a hard time being able to tell which parts I've replaced and which parts are original. I can definitely see about half of what I replaced with this mixture, as the surface is noticeably smoother. If the price of the old stuff ever comes down, I will likely buy a bit to smooth over the inconsistent areas to make them match better. I was also peeved that this took so long to cure. The label said to allow 3 days before painting, and since I had to apply three coats on the one part, it took well over a week to get done with it allowing 3 days to cure each time. If I went out after 24 hours, it was still soft to the touch. I didn't have any cracking issues as others have stated, and people who didn't know that I had worked on these areas would not be able to tell the difference unless they really looked. But all told, given a choice, I'd go with the other brand.

I keep needing a small amount for areas on my stucco house. Virginia weather is hard on this strange choice of exterior for my civil war era neighborhood. Nonetheless, this stuff really bonds well and has a nice texture. After I make a patch, then paint, you cant see even a large repair because it blends with the old stucco so well. I found that for best results read the instructions, don't let the stuff get too cold or dry. If you have a deep area, put it up in layers so it can set. Let it dry according to the instructions before you paint. It is tough stuff in a handy size for basic home touch-up. If you are working on a really large wall, or several, take note that you may want a larger size, or several of these. Attention to applying this the same as the old area will really make your repair look good. And this is a good stucco patch, ready to use.

Easy peasy. It's the texture of choc chip cookie dough and it drops a bunch of crumb pieces, so I'd put down a paper towel if youre working above dirt or rocks so you can reuse the pieces that fall. I watched stucco guy at old house and this is so much easier. A lot less area too. Our walls are very rough. Feels a bit plasticky when dry but paint will hopefully help and none of these areas should be disturbed or even touched after I paint. It does get the brunt of sw storms so if any probs I will edit after monsoon season.

I am a homeowner with very inept hands and very little experience using stucco patch or anything else for that matter. After a whole house re-pipe I was left with several unsightly holes in the exterior of my house around hose bibbs and other places. This stuff patched the holes absolutely indistinguishable from the original surfaces. A little bit of paint and it’s as good as new. Very pleased with the results. Reasonable quantity, more than I needed but not overly so and very good price. This stuff works, trust me.

This stuff is amazing I have a stucco house that has some cracks I need to patch it works great really blended in with the stucco easily changeable I would definitely recommend this if you have some stucco cracks don't use concrete patch that didn't work you need to stucco patch

I had some bad spots in our stucco. I removed the loose stucco and trowled in this product. Hardened up very well, texture looks just like the surrounding stucco, and it painted easily. What more could you ask for?
