Parapets are small walls along the top of a building where the exterior walls meet the business or commercial building’s roof. Because of their exposure to the elements, parapets are more likely to crack than other parts of your stucco exterior. The heat from direct sun exposure, change in temperature overnight, and rain and snow exposure can have a damaging effect.
When repairing stucco parapets, it’s important to first identify the extent of the damage. Is there just a crack in the stucco’s surface? Is the damage more extensive with rusted or broken metal? A simple crack can be filled and painted. More extensive damage may require several feet of the stucco to be removed and replaced. Without careful examination of the damage, the eventual repairs may not be successful, causing more damage and money in the long run. Along with damage assessment and repairs, it is important for the look of your building that any paint colors used match the rest of your exterior. Not doing so will make the repair work stick out and hurt the look of your building.
