Stucco Remediation Services in Philadelphia & Surrounding Areas
Protecting Your Philadelphia Home: Complete Stucco Remediation
Stucco has long been a favorite exterior finish for homes across Philadelphia and Southeast Pennsylvania. When properly installed, it delivers a timeless, sophisticated look that can last for decades. Unfortunately, many local homeowners have learned the hard way that improper installation or poor moisture management can lead to serious problems: rot, leaks, and hidden structural damage that worsens with time.
If you’ve noticed signs of stucco failure on your home, don’t wait for the damage to spread. At Five Star Contractors, we specialize in complete stucco remediation: removing failed stucco systems, addressing the underlying issues, and rebuilding your home’s exterior for lasting protection. With more than two decades of experience, we’ve helped countless homeowners restore their homes’ integrity, beauty, and value. Contact us today to schedule your consultation and see how we can help safeguard your investment.
Signs Your PA Home Needs Stucco Remediation
Sometimes, your home makes it obvious that it’s time to call in a stucco remediation expert. Other times, the warning signs are more subtle, lurking behind walls or beneath layers of paint. If you notice any of the following issues, it’s best to contact a professional for a full inspection before the problem escalates:
Bubbling or Bulging Walls: Raised or uneven patches often indicate trapped moisture beneath the stucco surface, a telltale sign of water intrusion.
Dark Stains That Never Seem to Dry: Persistent discoloration or streaking usually means moisture is seeping through the stucco and not drying out properly.
Extensive Mold or Mildew: If you see mold growth on exterior walls, it could mean the stucco system has failed and is retaining water.
Soft or Spongy Stucco: When stucco feels soft to the touch, it’s often due to underlying wood rot or saturated insulation behind the wall.
Persistent Musty Smells: A damp, musty odor inside your home can point to hidden water damage behind the walls caused by failed stucco barriers.
If any of these issues sound familiar, don’t ignore them. Stucco problems rarely fix themselves and typically worsen with every season. The good news is that with the right remediation plan, you can stop further deterioration and rebuild your home’s exterior for decades of protection and peace of mind.

Reviews
We used Five Star Contractors initially for siding replacement and stucco remediation. Because of their excellent work we had them return a year later to replace our aging roof and install new gutters and downspouts. The management team and crews on both jobs were professional, polite and respectful of our property and our neighbors. As their name says... their work is 5 Stars!
Five Star remediated our failing stucco and repaired extensive hidden damage. They also replaced all doors and windows. Their crews were professional, friendly and respectful. We were impressed with their ability to replace all the windows and doors without creating a mess, and they replaced all trim and plantation shutters seamlessly. Robert was frequently on site, and he offered excellent design suggestions throughout the project. We recommend Five Star without reservations. You will not be disappointed.
We chose five star and are so glad we did! When we purchased a home that needed a full stucco remediation we interviewed and obtained quotes from many companies. Five Stars quality of work and professionalism really stood out among the rest. They were easy to work with, attentive to detail, responsive and fully delivered going above and beyond. They are not the cheapest company but you get what you pay for, and we got the best!
We had a great experience with Five Star Contractors when they fully replaced our siding. Discovering that our house needed major repairs was a stressful experience, but from our first meeting with Matt and Michal we felt at ease. From start to finish, they were incredibly communicative, always taking the time to answer our questions thoroughly. What really stood out was how they walked us through the science behind proper construction techniques, helping us understand not just what they were doing, but why it mattered. Throughout the process we had multiple roadblocks on our end, and they were very understanding and flexible. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for skilled, transparent, and knowledgeable professionals.
Best contractor in the area. Attention to detail and very trustworthy. They do the job right and stand behind all their work. The crew works hard and their goal is to make you happy, whatever your needs are. Five Star will at least meet, but probably exceed your expectations as they have for me. They are neat and clean up the site every night before they leave, even using a magnet to find loose nails because I have 4 dogs. I couldn’t be happier with them and I am not easy to please. Michal, thank you for all you do.
Five star did an excellent job with our stucco remediation. The quality of the work is exceptional. Michael and Robert are very involved with the day to day operation and came up with excellent ideas to make our vision become reality. Every person on the team was a pleasure to work with. They were on time, respectful and professional . In particular Jesse is absolutely exceptional in everything he does. We wholeheartedly recommend Five Star!
