New Construction Stucco San Diego | SD Plastering Company

When general contractors and custom-home builders across San Diego County need a stucco sub they can hand a schedule to and forget about, they call SD Plastering Company. We've completed new construction stucco on over 1,000 projects since 1984 — single-family customs, multi-family, ADUs, and commercial buildings — and we hit our dates 98% of the time.

Three-Coat Hard-Coat Stucco — Done Right

Most new construction stucco failures trace back to one of three things: improper weather barrier installation, undersized expansion joints, or insufficient cure time between coats. We do all three correctly. Scratch coat, brown coat, finish coat — with proper cure windows and lath that meets or exceeds ASTM C1063. Inspections pass on the first walk every time.

Built for San Diego Builders' Schedules

We coordinate directly with your superintendent, frame schedule, window install, and rough inspections. Our crews mobilize when the wall is ready and demobilize the day we finish — no dragging out the punch list. Daily site photos and a single point of contact keep the GC informed without phone tag.

Custom Finishes for High-End Architecture

From minimalist smooth monolithic exteriors in modern Carmel Valley builds to traditional Spanish hand-troweled finishes on Mediterranean Rancho Santa Fe estates, we work directly with the architect to deliver the exact texture and color the design calls for. Sample walls on-site, signed off by owner and architect before production starts.

Multi-Family, ADUs, and Commercial

Beyond custom homes, we handle multi-family townhomes, condo conversions, ADU complexes, retail, and light commercial. Crews are scaled to the project — three for a custom home, fifteen for a multi-family build — without sacrificing finish quality.
