Completing a stucco patch around new windows using Fast Set from Lowes stores. Non biased review.

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 พ.ย. 2019
- Hey You-Tubers. In this video, I attempt to explain how to plaster in window stucco patches using Lowes Fast Set Stucco. Fast Set Stucco sets in twice the amount of time as Home Depots Rapid Set Mortar, but that can be a good thing, especially for slower plasterers, giving them more time to dial in the patch.
Also in this video we have the music of Nathan Humphries 'Blue Zone' as song #1 and 'Jenny' Song #3. Both very cool bluesy tunes to keep the beat going. We welcome comments below. Don't forget to hit the 'Like' and 'Subscribe' buttons! New videos coming every week. Cheers!
thank you, finally a stucco video really showing how to do it instead of just showing off
Agreed
liked
Nice, but I need to do it with some small pea gravel mixed in to match the existing old slop mop style stucco
Very nice Technique on scratching the excess stucco and blending process.
Thank you.
Thank you Joseph!
Oh yes, well explain thank you for zooming in on the tex ture .awsome video nice n easy
Purchased a pool float trowel this year,
I love it inside and outside.
Read all your comments enjoyed your responses and tips.
We are all helping people with our talent. You included. God bless
Thanks for such a great lesson. Well instructed and good camera work.
ANOTHER FINE job!!!!! Great music selection! VERY entertaining and educational. 'If' possible, would be really 'rewarding' to see a pic of your repairs after the painting is complete- would show us what the end result of what all that talent and experience can provide. Maybe a 'before' and 'after' pic? I'd rather watch your vids over 'crippled' airliners comin' in hot!
Thanks for the compliments. I have a video or two out now that are complete. The before and after are rare, but I gotten. Thanks for checking out my channel!
I can see you have master that trowel texture bro you matched the wall with every past of the trowel great job
Yes. And I think I make it look easier than it really is?
Thanks Ken!

Your experience is high level.
Thank you kind sir!
thank you for showing. i just received an estimate on new window that needs stucco, 2k. I let him have it basically. I'll be diy'ing this . mine is a different patterned and is recessed .
Good for you. What city is it in? If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask.
Just what I needed. Thank you. Triple
Glad it helped Triple Threat
Hopefully this video gets us to save $$ doing it ourselves 🤞 thank u
Don’t mix more than you can put on in 5 minutes.
Today had an estimate to do this for a small window, 15" x 30". The estimate : $700! Doing it myself after watching your video.
What city or state is the repair in?
How is it going on your window repair?

antonio guzman Thank you Antonio. I am uploading a brand new movie this weekend.
Is this miguels band lol. Thanks guys look’s excellent as always
Nice work
Great video and excellent work
Thank you very much!
Know when to stop is also very important.
Hi Mr Beard. I’m interested in what you mean Knowing when to stop. Could you elaborate
Thank you very much for sharing!
Love to see the finish product AFTER it's painted... that's when we'd see if the patch matches the rest of the wall..
it won't blend. I can see the overlapping texture! rookie!
😂how can we be perfect in a trade where finishes are imperfect smooth and undulated corners
Nice work my friend. Neat and tidy job👍🏻
Thank you Greig
My fellow plaster!🤙🏻 Get that bonding agent and expansion caulking in there too. Keep them cracks dead in the water!
Sling that Mud Boss!
Done. Please se current episode fixing sliding glass door stucco repair or Bulging stucco repair. Thanks. Ken

great job. It's the same job as me, so it appeals to me. Good to used the green floot to mold the new joint with the old wall. I subscribe to your channel and I will watch your other videos. Hello from Canada, Quebec. Escuse my english is little bad.
Hello Quebec Canada, I think you write very well English. Thanks for checking out my channel. Ken
Nice job man more commentary please,
I always want to learn from someone who knows.
The lath install around the casing of the trim for windows and doors would be a nice preview of work entailed.
When to use stucco stops or casing?
I will subscribe to view more of your content THANK YOU for taking the time to make instructional videos.
I really like that you suggest things to show. I’m sorry I didn’t see your request earlier. If it helps I will put it on the to do list at least for others as well.
awesome
I like you video
Thank you and I appreciate you chiming in. Always ask questions too. I’d love to answer any questions you may have
@@AbersonPlastering i do stucco in florida
Hello lol yay. I love stucco. My back doesn’t agree with me
Great Video thanks
Thank you. I just learn something new today. Similar in mudding and texturing drywall. If window is weathered proof and just needs stucco whats a good price to charge? Say same size the window you stucco. I want to add this skill in my remodeling business. Gracias. From Fort Worth, TX
Glad to help
Nice , but I need to mix in some pea gravel to match the old style slop mop stucco
Hi Robert, I’m interested in the finished look and what the old style looks like. Would it be possible to get some pictures of it? Thanks for checking in.
Hi Ken, I have a stucco house, no weep screed, I believe with dash finish. I am planning on putting in a weep screed, patching everything, then painting the house. I want to make sure that after the new paint job the repair is not noticeable. Would you recommend 3 coats (scratch, brown, and finish) using this Fast Set? Thanks in advance.
Hi Eric. Absolutely.
Great video. At 3:07, I'm curious what the technique is to fix the long horizontal crack at the bottom-left of the video. I assume you either just use caulk with sand already in it (something like Mor-Flexx?) or should the crack be opened larger and then fill in the now-larger crack with stucco?
Hi. Thanks for checking out my vids. You are on the right track with using a sanded caulking and paint. A crack patched with regular stucco will just crack again. Also if there is no water getting in, you might want to consider leaving the crack alone. It’s sometimes better to just leave the cracks alone as the crack may come back then what do you have? A crack that looks like someone tried to fix but the crack is an engineering issue that will continue to crack due to the moving of structure and expansion and contraction between dissimilar materials
Hey Ken. Great video. I need to do stucco repairs around new windows in social. I’ve used Eisenwall. Should I just use rapid set stucco mix that already has the sand? Should I scratch it before I do the brown? In your video you use the same material for the finish/texture coat but the instructions for Eisenwall say not to use it for a finish coat because it has to be 3/8”. What product should I use? Or can I just float out the brown coat to get some aggregate out if it looks close enough to the original stucco? Thanks!
Hey Timothy, I like your last suggestion the best. Try to use what’s on the wall and start by spreading it kind of tight. Then apply a sponge to achieve the desired results. You might have to use the trowel again to flatten out some spots I don’t know but Hope that work. Cheers
I have a question, can you stucco over painted stucco? I have a window and door that both need a redo and floated better so the repair doesn’t show as bad but the stucco is already been painted. My plan was to pressure-wash the area, brush off any loose stucco, add the new stucco and float it out further so it will blend in better.
Absolutely you can stucco over a painted surface. Just add about 8 ounces of white glue to a 5 gallon bucket of finish material. Mix the finish material with water first until it’s kind of thick and then add the glue. Let the mix set after you add the glue for about five minutes and then sting it with the drill. Another way is to Roll on weld Crete before you apply finish.
Hi ken 😊
Hi Arlene. Check out my new short I uploaded yesterday to keep your hammer or axe head on the handle
Did you have to sand off any of existing stucco around replacement window before you started?
I have 15 windows replaced and waiting for stucco guy to show up. Next time ill only do 5 windows at a time-- what a nightmare with cement dust on everything !!
No. We grind
I’m assuming you have to remove the paint if the stucco was painted. Any tips for that?
You can water blast, using a garden hose and then use a broom to clean the wall. After that add 1 gallon of white glue the add mixed kind per bag of stucco finish. Use a scraper tool to scrape off any loose paint before applying the material. You can also roll glue on the wall and then apply the finished material while the glue is tacky, but not wet.

Great Video. Thanks for the reply 😊
More videos please. Interested in learning how to do Santa Barbra Mission Finish. I hear quite a few pros are now mixing a small amount of fine sand to help prevent cracking- obviously not as smooth as the original mission finish but an interesting alternative.
Any thoughts?
Hi Ron. Adding fine sand to prevent cracking? If you want to prevent cracking, use something besides stucco. Like vinyl siding or maybe metal. Adding fine sand is not going to prevent stucco from cracking. We just finished a home with SB mission finish . We did the home about three years ago, but the LNU fire burned the granny flat. Listen SB mission finish is a beautiful finish. But it will crack, thats a fact of life right? Yes. So If someone is concerned about cracking, I suggest using acrylic stucco. But there is a trade off right? Acrylic inhibits cracking. But it is flat in appearance, like it was painted. After all, acrylic stucco is just paint sand and glue in a bucket. You could stain it to look like regular stucco as well to enhance the appearance. You could add acrylic glue to regular stucco to minimize cracking, but it will burn (mar). The variables go on and on. I have a mission finish sample I am preparing right now in the yard. Hit subscribe so you dont miss it, I will try to get to it this week. Cheers! Ken
@@AbersonPlastering , thanks Ken. I appreciate all the feedback. I believe I did subscribe when I watched your video but will double check.
@@ronrocha316 Me as well , I liked how he showed what the stucco "slump" was by the demonstration, I subbed.
Great
Thanks for the video. Going to attempt to just patch cracks and places where the stucco has buckled. Nothing major. Just wondering how long you wait before you floated with the green sponge?
Hi And thanks for checking out my video. let the material take up just a bit. Before it drys gently hit it with the sponge. Hope this helps
Ken. I just got a 30k bid to replace 5 windows in Eldorado hills. I am going to do it myself but i need a stucco guy to come do the stucco repairs. Do you want the job
And congratulations on your new baby!
@@frustrating123 Thank you.
Is there some kind of water proofing Membrane around the window.
Of course
nice any recommendations for west coast Florida I am having my windows replaced need stucco work done ?
use peel and stick flashing for sure!
Noah How much can I charge to repair a window like this?
1window patch including the waterproofing could fetch 350-475.00 depending on a variety of variables as you can imagine.
I had couple handyman cover the door and replacing the window but after couple months the joint cracks and make a line so I am not sure what they did wrong? I am guessing they didn't leave the mesh out so the old and new one can bond well.
Its common regardless. Its inside the system. If your handy men were plastering over a solid block wall, it would not have cracked unless there were cracks in the block. But going over wood construction, we typically break the stucco to have a jagged edge before stucco is applied. But it will most often crack anyway. When we make a saw cut and apply stucco without a jagged edge, we get a straight crack as opposed to a jagged crack. The jagged edge is an attempt tp provide a better bond for the stucco. But with expansion and contraction within the system the stucco joint will fail. Its not their fault unless they didn’t tie the wire together the old with the new. Here is your remedy...Caulk and paint. You cannot patch a crack with more stucco, it just doesn’t work that way. Thanks for checking out my videos..Ken
Can you come to my house and show me how to stucco around my sliding glass door?!!?
Hi. Sorry for the delay. Did you get your stucco done??? I can come to you but I must tell you that I fly business class and like the 5 star hotels. Or if you have sleeping quarters on site may work as well. Thanks for watching. Hope you learned something here.
Did you need to use a bonding agent
Wouldn’t hurt I didn’t in this video when I was younger everything got a bonding agent but since I’m older there are more important things and I’m confident and moving forward without a bonding agent
No flashing across the top of the window in accordance with code? No side or bottom terminations with 1/4 in reveal to allow for window expansion and contraction? One coat system? This will leak!!!!
Code? In a California sub division? This is exactly what code calls for. Flashing all the way around the window, starting at the bottom and then sides and finally the top. I realize its hard to see because the lath is obscuring the view. It has a sticky flashing with a shiny side out. Its actually a descent flashing. But this video is more about doing the plaster topping and texture. You might be thinking of a Government project such as a school or Federal building, but those would not be one coat. This is an approved system.
How much do you charge for a patch like that?
Alot
are you sanding that wet? and with what
Hi Scott. No sanding. It’s called a neoprene float to knock down the high spots before texturing
You can use neoprene, cork , wood and even a red and green float although each float leaves the base coat different.
@@AbersonPlastering awesome thank you! Subscribed !
For the texture coat, when you say looser, is that drier?
No, I mean add a bit more water to make it a little wetter
What about those big cracks in the wall?? HOw do you deal with those??
I was hoping he was going to hit those real quick while he was there anyways... I would have. He'll have to paint the entire wall. Why not fix the cracks too?
i been watchign alot of videos on stucco lately and one of them said to gouge the crack out to atleast a 1/4inch than apply the stucco patch.
Or simply caulk it ?
A crack is a crack.
How much working time with this brand? Does it set in20 min?
Closer to an hour. More in colder weather. Hour and a half to two hours
Excuse me what kind of materials for first coat? And second
Hello Tom, this is both the same materials called ‘Fast Set’. A high performance base coat stucco product available from big box stores like Lowes
Isn’t that Brinks dad? Brink the soul skater?
That is my boy, Andrew. The secret is out
How do fix all the cracks on the wall?
Hi the cracks need caulk and paint
Que material usas para la textura ??
Hello. The texture material is the same as the base coat.
No trim?
Trim is often a great idea to conceal a window replacement patch. Makes it look like new. However many times trim isn’t an option due to many considerations.
@@AbersonPlastering What would those considerations be?
@@jesmpk2298 the owner may not want trim. Trim may not be available in some geographical areas or trim just doesn’t look good on a particular project
At least he take it off the top of hawk
No flashings!
Windows are flashed
Y dont tell the people that before u start to do anything FIRST put some oil/WD40 on your trowel so everything comes out smooth
I have said that before in my videos but only when we’re using acrylic it’s not necessary when you’re just doing conventional
Hey Ken. Great video. I need to do stucco repairs around new windows in social. I’ve used Eisenwall. Should I just use rapid set stucco mix that already has the sand?

Hope it all worked out Tim. Did you use the Rapid set eisenwall?
