stucco expansion joint on a block or brick retaining wall
Hi guys, this video explains how to tie in an old Terra-cotta retainer wall to an existing stucco home, while also integrating an expansion joint to minimize the cracking in the future.
Will installing an expansion screed where the home meets a separate rationing or garden wall create an area that will not crack? Doubtful.
But it’s the best that can be performed in order to minimize movement cracking between the two as the owner wished no gap.
Another or a better way is to allow a inch gap between the two structures.
Oops, we didn’t input the actual stucco application, dang!
