In Phase 1 of this project in Walnut Creek, CA, The G.B. Group team removed existing stucco system and installed a new stucco system, with a smooth finish. The existing expansion joints on the building envelope were exposing the building paper, allowing water to penetrate inside of the building. There was also severe stucco cracks and efflorescence surrounding the building at all elevations. All new flashing components were also installed for the stucco construction. The G.B. Group also installed an STO finish coating system and Acrylic crack filler with glass fiber reinforcement for surface leveling and waterproof base coat. The Montecito Phase 1 project was completed with an entire exterior base-coat, skim-coat, and paint to match the original color.
