Whether your stucco is cracked, chipping, or needs a full application, Integrity Paint and General Contracting provides reliable stucco repair and installation services across Oakland and the East Bay. We bring the same attention to detail and clean workmanship to every stucco project that we bring to every painting job we take on.
Stucco is one of the most common exterior finishes on homes and commercial buildings throughout Oakland and the East Bay. When it starts showing cracks, bubbling, or separating from the wall, the damage only gets worse with time. Moisture works its way behind the surface, which can lead to mold, rot, and structural issues that cost far more to fix down the road.
Getting ahead of stucco damage early protects your property and preserves its curb appeal. And if you are planning an exterior paint job stucco repair is the critical first step. Paint will not hold properly over cracked or failing stucco, so addressing the surface first ensures the finish lasts for years.
Small cracks and chips might seem minor, but they are entry points for water and pests. We clean out the damaged area, prep the surface properly, and apply a durable patch that blends with the surrounding finish. Our repairs are built to last, not just cover up the problem temporarily.
For walls with widespread cracking, water staining, or sections pulling away from the substrate, we provide full stucco restoration. This includes removing the compromised material, repairing the underlying lath or mesh if needed, and applying a fresh stucco finish. We match the existing texture so the repaired area looks consistent with the rest of the wall. This level of surface restoration is what separates a proper repair from a patch job that fails within a year.
Building an addition, converting a garage, or finishing a new structure? We handle full stucco applications from scratch. Our process includes proper lath installation, a scratch coat, brown coat, and finish coat applied with care and precision. We work with standard, smooth, and textured finishes depending on the look you want.
One of the biggest advantages of working with us is that we handle both the stucco work and the painting. Instead of hiring two contractors, coordinating timelines, and hoping the handoff goes smoothly, you get one crew managing the entire project. We repair or install the stucco, let it cure properly, and then apply a high quality exterior paint finish that protects the surface and looks sharp.
Inspection and Assessment
We start by thoroughly inspecting the stucco surface and the wall structure underneath. We check for moisture damage, substrate issues, and any conditions that could affect the repair or installation. You get an honest assessment of what needs to happen before any work begins.
Surface Preparation
Proper prep is non-negotiable. We remove loose or failing material, clean the surface, and make sure the substrate is solid. If there is damaged lath, wire mesh, or building paper, we address that before any new stucco goes on. Skipping this step is how bad stucco jobs happen, and we do not take shortcuts.
Application and Finishing
We apply stucco in the correct layers, allowing proper cure time between coats. The finish coat is matched to the existing texture or your preferred style. We protect surrounding surfaces, landscaping, and windows throughout the process to keep the job site clean.
Final Walkthrough
Once the work is complete, we walk the project with you to make sure everything looks right and meets your expectations. We clean up our work area and leave your property the way we found it.
One Contractor for Stucco and Paint
Most stucco damage eventually leads to painting. Instead of managing multiple contractors, you work with one experienced team that handles both. This keeps the project on schedule, reduces miscommunication, and delivers a better finished product. Whether it is a small patch and touch up or a full residential painting project, we handle it under one roof.
Honest Pricing, No Surprises
We give you a clear, upfront estimate that covers the full scope of work. If we find additional issues during the project, we communicate that immediately and get your approval before moving forward. You will never get a surprise bill from us.
Clean, Professional Workmanship
We protect your landscaping, cover your windows, and keep the job site organized from start to finish. When the work is done, we leave your property looking better than when we arrived.

Before starting any stucco project, most homeowners have a few questions. Here are the ones we hear most often from clients across Oakland and the East Bay.
Look for visible cracks, chips, bubbling, discoloration, or areas where the stucco has pulled away from the wall. If you notice water stains on interior walls near exterior stucco surfaces, that is another strong sign moisture is getting through. Even hairline cracks can allow water in over time, so it is best to have them evaluated before they get worse.
The cost depends on the size and severity of the damage. Small patch repairs are typically affordable and straightforward. Larger restoration projects involving substrate repair or full wall resurfacing will cost more. We provide free, detailed estimates so you know the full scope and cost before any work begins. No hidden fees, no surprises.
Yes. We take care to match the texture and finish of your existing stucco so repaired areas blend seamlessly with the rest of the wall. Whether you have a smooth, sand, lace, dash, or skip trowel finish, we have the experience to match it.
Absolutely. Painting over damaged stucco is a waste of time and money. The paint will crack, peel, or blister over problem areas. Repairing the stucco first gives you a solid, clean surface that holds paint properly and extends the life of your exterior finish. That is why many of our clients combine stucco repair with exterior painting in a single project.
Small patch repairs can often be completed in a day. Larger restoration projects or full stucco installations may take several days to a week or more, depending on the scope and the cure time required between coats. We will give you a clear timeline during the estimate so you know what to expect.
