Salt-tinged fog, fast-moving microclimates, and century-old Victorians make San Francisco stucco as unique as the city itself. When cracks, staining, or delamination appear, you need more than patchwork—you need an exact match in color, texture, and performance. CountBricks delivers all three by pairing AI-powered estimating with field-tested craftsmanship.
Moisture Cycling – Repeated wetting and drying expands lime and aggregate, opening hairline cracks.
Seismic Movement – Minor tremors can shear poorly reinforced coats away from the lath.
Salty Marine Air – Chlorides accelerate corrosion of metal lath, leading to bubbling or flaking.
Historic Substrates – Old redwood framing and uninsulated walls shift over time, stressing the stucco skin.
1. AI Assessment & Instant Estimate
CountBricks voice-powered software captures on-site conditions, photographs, and homeowner notes. In seconds, our platform assigns square footage, material mixes, and labor hours—no clipboard, no guesswork.
2. Material-Specific Match
We maintain a digital catalog of San Francisco stucco formulas. Whether your façade uses 1920s sand-lime or modern acrylic, our estimators pull the exact recipe, then order locally sourced aggregates through CountBricks.com/services for same-day delivery.
3. Licensed Application & Warranty
Our residential crews are California C-35 licensed and trained on seismic mesh reinforcement. Every repair receives a 5-year workmanship warranty, automatically tracked in your CountBricks homeowner dashboard.
• Cracks wider than 1/8 inch that run diagonally across windows
• Hollow sounds when tapping the wall, indicating delamination
• Brown streaks below rooflines that suggest flashing failure
• Blistering paint or white efflorescence near grade level
Accessibility – Narrow side yards and steep streets often require scaffold hoists, adding labor hours.
Permit Environment – Historical districts may need façade review, and CountBricks handles submittals as part of our turnkey package.
Blend Complexity – Matching multi-tone Mediterranean finishes can mean two or more tint passes.
Thanks to our AI engine, each variable is priced transparently on your digital estimate so you can see cost impacts line by line.
• Schedule annual visual inspections every October before the rainy season
• Keep irrigation heads a minimum of 18 inches from walls to reduce splashback
• Re-seal hairlines with breathable elastomeric caulk instead of paint-grade latex
• Request a vapor-permeable topcoat from CountBricks for coastal exposures
A 1,400 sq ft home showed spider cracking across its south elevation. Using voice capture, our estimator produced a 45-line item quote in under five minutes. We removed 160 sq ft of delaminated brown coat, installed stainless-steel lath, and applied a two-coat fiber-reinforced finish that matched the original dash texture. Total project time: four days. The homeowner viewed progress photos in real time at CountBricks.com/portfolio.
• AI precision that eliminates 90 % of mid-project change orders
• Crews trained on both heritage lime plasters and modern acrylics
• Integrated invoice and warranty tracking through your personal dashboard
• Local supply chain partners for reduced lead times and carbon footprint

Yes. Our spectrometer records your current façade, then our mixing lab reproduces the pigment within ±2 DE, an accuracy undetectable to the naked eye.
Many repairs are considered maintenance, but if we replace more than 50 % of a wall, it may qualify. Our itemized invoice simplifies conversations with your tax professional.

Traditional stucco estimates often rely on visual guesswork. A contractor eyeballs 200 square feet, adds a margin for waste, and scribbles a round number. By contrast, CountBricks uses LiDAR-enhanced photos and spoken site notes to generate a digital twin of your façade. The software calculates not only surface area but also corner beads, control joints, window returns, and scaffold height. Each component is priced against our live Bay Area materials database, updated daily.
• No hidden fees—If the AI model shows 28 linear feet of seismic mesh, you’ll see that exact quantity on the estimate.
• Rapid approvals—Because every cost driver is documented, HOA boards and historic review panels sign off faster.
• Side-by-side options—Want to compare traditional cement plaster to acrylic finish? Generate alternate budgets in one click.
On day one, our crew chief cross-checks the digital twin with physical measurements. Variances above 2 % trigger an automatic re-estimate before work begins, so you’re never handed a surprise change order mid-project.
Leftover stucco mix is a major waste stream. By measuring within a 2 % tolerance, CountBricks reduces excess material, keeping hundreds of pounds of cement out of Bay Area landfills each year.
Homeowners report an average 18 % reduction in total project cost variance compared to traditional estimating methods. More importantly, cracks stay closed through quakes and coastal storms alike.
