SIC Code 1771-04 - Stucco Contractors

Stucco contractors are professionals who specialize in the application of stucco, a type of plaster that is commonly used as a decorative and protective coating for walls and ceilings. Stucco is a mixture of cement, sand, and water that is applied in multiple layers to create a durable and attractive finish. Stucco contractors work on both residential and commercial projects, and their services are often required during new construction, renovation, and repair projects. Stucco contractors are responsible for preparing the surface to be covered with stucco, which may involve cleaning, repairing, or replacing damaged areas. They then mix the stucco according to the desired consistency and apply it to the surface using a variety of tools, such as trowels, floats, and sprayers. Stucco contractors must have a keen eye for detail, as they must ensure that the stucco is applied evenly and smoothly, and that any decorative elements are properly incorporated. Stucco contractors must also be knowledgeable about the different types of stucco available, as well as the various finishes and colors that can be achieved. They may work with clients to select the appropriate stucco for their project, and may also provide guidance on maintenance and repair.
