Hardly ever do I post a comment on vids I watch but I had to for this one. As someone in the trades I have great respect for anyone who pays attention to detail and proper installations from beginning to end. That is the mark of a true professional with lots of experience. I do work up and down the valley and will keep your name in mind. Thanks for posting and being so thorough in explaining the process.
Thank you for the video I like your technique and the fact that you pay a lot of attention to detail and you are not in a hurry to get it done great job.
Awesome stuff and excellent video!!! Thank you for generously sharing your time and talents. If I may make a request...would love to see a beginners series. Something that includes tools for beginners, which stucco types are out there and which to choose for various residential applications, then going through the steps of installation. I know you've got some of these videos already but would be great for an update. Love your work, thanks again!
Very helpful as I have to repair a bunch of holes the birds have punched in our foam/stucco exterior. Only difference in our home is the builder used fiberglass in lieu of wire.
Thanks for the video. If I want to put a window into a stucco wall, can I just frame inside, cut exact opening through stucco, and install block frame window (no nail in fin), by screwing directly outward through the window frame directly into the studs, and then just caulk around the whole window? Will that make it waterproof enough? Will just caulking around the whole window make it water proof, as there will be nothing getting tucked around it, just caulk around it?
i work as a lather all around the bay area , i have a question , so since the foam is over the paper , does the 66 metal around the door not get filled with 7/8 stucco? or is it fully filling the casing .
@@AbersonPlastering Is your doors jamb wider than standard. I have to mount mine flush with exterior sheathing to give me 1/2” protrusion for inside dry way to be flush with jamb. Problem is now my stucco on exterior sits out 1/2” past jamb. The foam has a 1/2” gap now from its back to door jamb. How do u deal with this?
Hi@@undercrownhiphop9422 So you did it right, the inside of home always takes precedence over the exterior. And sometimes the jamb is a different size than the application was spec’d for. If your jamb is flush with the exterior sheathing? Then I dont see the problem. You would need to use the #66 stucco stop on the jamb and leave a little reveal. There are natural cut lines in the jamb precisely where the stucco mold or 66 stop would go. It’s about 1/2” away from the inside return of the jamb. Now you could use your foam as the stop like you asked in your initial question, or you could use wood or vinyl. There is no law saying you need to use a certain material. Have you ever seen something very creative and asked yourself, “How did they ever think of that”? Well this is your opportunity to be the designer. As Kirk would say, “ there is more than one way to skin a cat” Good Luck!
@@AbersonPlastering Wow. Thank You so much. Why the heck didn’t I think to run the stucco mold over the jamb? 🤪 That makes so much sense. Only question is since I’m using rainscreen and the stucco stop goes on top of it wouldn’t that introduce water on the door jamb? Maybe do a Perl and stick in the jamb?
@@undercrownhiphop9422 You got it. But if it was me the first thing I would do is install the j-metal but you could do the peel and stick first. I would do the j metal first though to make sure the metal is sitting nice and flat on the jamb, then apply the peel and stick, then the rain screen. The painter would then caulk where the j-mold meets the jamb. I would just be leery of the peel and stick messing up like a crinkle could mess up the flatness of the j-mold, even where it overlaps. Good luck either way.
Wish you would explain more on what you doing. Like telling the base coat, then finish coat. Different throughs that your using. How to nail on wire Stuff like that.More explaining on what your doing. Nice work though.
Fog coat. I try to make it as habit of telling folks I don’t do fog coating. It’s a mess, and the results are less than warranted for the amount of work involved. Thanks for checking us out though E.
Hi Thanks for your comment. We don’t do much fog coating, because that’s when you have made a. Joint or bad color job. We tend to not make those errors.
Nice job Ken. But frankly im not very impressed with the foam trim. Id sooner use a milcor bead around the door, then attack a wood strip on the wall and fill it in with mud. We did the tooth corners the same way, solid mud.

antonio guzman thank you Antonio. Sometimes we do get in a hurry. Like if we have to beat the heat, or? And quality is job #1
Great job! Your a pro! One of the best plasterers on RUclips!
Thank you, my husband has a stucco company. He's now a missing person and I am managing the company with no idea how. These videos really help!!!!!
Oh my, I do hope your husband returns safe. Thanks for checking in King
@@AbersonPlastering thank you

@@wstt4 yes
Good job
Thank you !
really good work!
Great job 👏
If I may ask, what was the secondary white coating used?
Thanks Ken, be well!
Hi Steve, the white stuff was course stucco finish by Western stucco in Sacramento Ca. Thanks for your comment
He used his axe like a razor, that was pretty cool
Nice work 👌
Thank you!
Great Video 👍
Great work man, looks pretty close is a patch remember. Jeje
It does!
Great My friend
Perfection✌️
Thanks ✌️
i work as a lather all around the bay area , i have a question , so since the foam is over the paper , does the 66 metal around the door not get filled with 7/8 stucco? or is it fully filling the casing .
It fully fills the casing. Casing is 1 3/8”. Foam is 1”. Mud total is3/8”
Great vid. So did u use J casing or L flashing on top? Or does the foam trim become the flashing?
I did use #66-7/8” stucco stop (J-mold) on the top and sides.

nice work, but what is the name of the withe material you use it for the Foam form coat?
Fome tite
So breaking into house is even easier with today building standards?
Wish you would explain more on what you doing. Like telling the base coat, then finish coat. Different throughs that your using. How to nail on wire Stuff like that.More explaining on what your doing. Nice work though.
Thanks for checking out my video(s). Go to my channel. There are lots of different videos on different topics
Will the wall portion flash when it comes time to paint????
If you paint the wall from corner to corner it will not flash.
Where do you get the tongue and groove foam and the styrofoam trim?
I get mine from ABC Supply
I've only ever seen and ran full lengths on the sides. Why the 1 inch short cut?
Prolly because the trim wasn’t quite 8’ long
How much do you charge for a patch like that?
What about the color matching? You should show us the fog coat part🙏🏾
Fog coat. I try to make it as habit of telling folks I don’t do fog coating. It’s a mess, and the results are less than warranted for the amount of work involved. Thanks for checking us out though E.
Hi Thanks for your comment. We don’t do much fog coating, because that’s when you have made a. Joint or bad color job. We tend to not make those errors.
Can I use rapid set stucco patch on efis stucco. Thanks
Yes, of course
What’s the mixing products that you used ???
Foam coat fine. Available wherever stucco products are sold
What size nails do you use need to know ASAP thanks
Sorry if it took so long to reply. But with the 1” foam system it is common to use 2” roofing nails.
Nice job Ken.
But frankly im not very impressed with the foam trim.
Id sooner use a milcor bead around the door, then attack a wood strip on the wall and fill it in with mud.
We did the tooth corners the same way, solid mud.
You probably would not have been awarded the job though Ernie. Times have changed
Such a small wall why not coat the whole thing so you definitely will not see the joint
