Sources: Angi, updated Sep 1, 2026 and HomeGuide, Feb 9, 2026. Angi bases its figures on 3,335 verified projects reported by Angi Pros. National data; the two publishers measure differently, so ranges do not line up row by row.
Cost per square foot
Angi says most pros charge $8 to $50 per square foot, with traditional stucco at $8–$30 and synthetic (EIFS) at $12–$50. HomeGuide gives $8–$30 per square foot for basic repairs such as hairline cracks, holes and chips, $30–$50 for multiple large cracks and problem areas such as chimneys, and $60–$120 for extensive repairs and water damage.
Angi also lists typical totals by size of the repaired area:
| Area repaired | Angi range |
|---|---|
| 1–10 sq ft | $250–$900 |
| 11–50 sq ft | $900–$2,500 |
| 51–200 sq ft | $2,500–$6,000 |
| 200+ sq ft | $6,000–$12,000 |
To estimate your own area, measure the damaged height and width in feet and multiply. A 4 ft by 5 ft section is 20 square feet, which falls in Angi's 11–50 square foot band. Treat the result as a starting point for the quote conversation, not a price.
What moves the price
- Area and number of locations. Several small repairs cost more than one patch of the same total size because each needs setup and blending.
- Depth of damage. A surface crack is a different job from damage that reaches what is behind the stucco. Water damage sits at the high end in both guides.
- Stories and access. Second-story work can need scaffolding or lifts.
- Texture and color matching. Matching an existing finish takes skill, and a repainted wall section can be a separate line item.
- Permits. Some jobs need one; see the permits guide.
- Hidden damage. Ask how the quote handles damage found after the wall is opened.
- Labor rates. Angi lists $40–$75 per hour and HomeGuide $40–$60 per hour as national figures.
Repair or re-stucco: the cost gap
Angi puts replacement of stucco at $9,000–$13,000 total for a typical home (Angi). That compares with a few hundred to a few thousand dollars for most repairs, which is why the repair-or-replace decision matters. HomeGuide notes that properly maintained stucco can last upwards of 50 years, and Angi gives 50–70 years. See how to decide.
DIY or professional?
HomeGuide shows that small DIY patches and caulking can cost very little in materials, and a hairline crack is the one repair many homeowners attempt. Larger areas, repeat cracks and anything involving water are where a contractor earns the fee, because the cause matters more than the patch. We do not cover DIY products on this site.
How to compare quotes
Ask every contractor for a written scope that names the repair method, the area, what happens if hidden damage is found, how the texture will be matched and the warranty terms. Quotes only compare when the scope matches. Use the quote checklist →

Stucco repair cost questions
Is it expensive to repair stucco?

How much does it cost to re-stucco a house?
Angi's repair-or-replace guide puts replacement at $9,000–$13,000 total for a typical home, and its repair guide lists full resurfacing at $3,000–$8,000. The two figures cover different scopes and sizes, so treat them as a rough frame and get written quotes for your house.
What is the average cost to stucco a house in California?
We could not find a California-specific figure from a source we could read and cite, so we do not state one. National guides are the best published reference, and Bay Area labor can run above national averages. Quotes from licensed contractors for your wall are the real answer.
Why do quotes for the same repair differ so much?
Scope is the usual reason. One quote may cover a surface patch while another opens the wall, repairs what is behind it and matches the texture. Ask each contractor to describe the repair method and the area in writing so the numbers are comparable.
