Has anyone had stucco work done or cracks repaired? Who do you recommend?

I have the same question! We have a crack in the ceiling on our lanai, and a couple of small ones in our exterior stucco.

The ceiling of the lanai is drywall, not stucco. There is another thread where these ceiling cracks are discussed in detail. The ceiling crack needs to be cut out and have an expansion joint created or the crack will most likely come back.

Most of the small cracks can be filled with a latex caulk. The larger ones have to be evaluated on a case by case study. All the cracks in my stucco were caulked prior to painting. 12 years later no problem. Len the retired half of Investment Painting.
