Sand, dash, lace, cat face. The production wall. Ask to see a nearby job, not a brochure.

Who to hire for stucco finishes in Austin
Stucco is not one product. This guide splits common finishes, custom plaster, and named systems such as LaHabra, then features a company that actually applies them in-house.

Editorial standard
What earns a place in this guide.
Trade fit and verifiable operating facts matter more than slogans.
- In-house plaster, not a paint crew
- Willingness to mock up a finish on the wall
- Named-product experience when the spec says LaHabra or equal
- Published Sub Texas Alliance standing for the featured listing
This directory is operated independently of the niche landing pages for each trade. Listings do not route visitors through related websites.

Start with the assembly or service you can name.
Custom finishes
Decorative plaster and one-off textures. No mockup, no start.
LaHabra
If the bag is named, the applicator has to know that system. Do not accept a generic acrylic swap.
Before you hire
Questions worth asking.
- Who scratches, browns, and finishes — your people or a sub of a sub?
- Will I sign a sample wall?
- How do you handle south-elevation fade on a punch?
