My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Stucco over wood siding?

8 years ago
I had 2 guys give me estimates for stucco. One said he would remove the siding while the other wanted to stucco over the siding. A window guy came over and thought stucco over wood siding would provide more insulation. Anybody have experience with this?
