A specialist trade for Cobb County buildings
Darrin Straub started Advanced Stucco Repair in 1999 because too many stucco and EIFS problems were being handled by crews who treated the finish coat as the whole job. His view was simple: a stained or cracked facade is almost always a water problem, and the fix has to address the wall behind the finish. That is still how we approach every building.
Marietta has been part of our working territory for years. Its mix of property types is a good test of a specialist: barrier EIFS on office parks, decades of tenant changes on retail centers, breezeways and balconies on large apartment communities, and older buildings downtown where exterior changes need a careful hand. We survey, test, repair and finish all of it, and we write scopes that owners, boards and asset managers can act on.
We are not a general contractor and do not take on unrelated work. Stucco, EIFS, sealants, flashing, sheathing and coatings are what we do, and our clients rely on us because we stay inside that lane and do it thoroughly.
