There are some home improvement projects that don’t require a contractor with specialized skills and years of experience to be able to accomplish. However, stucco work is not one of them! Stucco utilizes materials that require expert craftsmen who have been trained to mix and apply them properly. The professionals at Worldgate Plaster & Stucco Company are trained experts in stucco installation, repairs, maintenance, and inspections.  Let’s go through four questions you should always ask before you hire someone to complete any stucco projects at your residence.

1. Are You Licensed and Insured?

This is a fundamental question that you should ask any contractor before they begin a project at your home. This will protect you from liability in the event of any accidents and cover the cost of any damage. Never allow a contractor who isn’t licensed and insured to touch your home.

2. How Much Stucco Experience Do You Have?

Before you trust someone to apply or repair stucco, you should question the extent of their experience. Ask them how many years they have been working with stucco, along with a range of the amount of projects they have completed. At Worldgate Plaster & Stucco Company, we have over 45 years of stucco installation experience.

3. Can You Provide References or a Portfolio of Projects?

Whether you prefer to speak to a contractor’s former clients or simply see examples of their work, they should gladly accommodate your request. This will give you valuable insight into the contractor’s skill level, professionalism, and work ethic.

4. What Would You Recommend for My Project?

An experienced contractor should be able to review the scope of your project and provide recommendations based on your unique circumstances. We’ve had countless homeowners, business owners, and real estate professionals ask for our advice over the years, and they trust our expertise.
