A specialist trade, not a sideline
Darrin Straub founded Advanced Stucco Repair in 1999 with a simple idea: stucco and EIFS problems are water problems, and they should be diagnosed and repaired by people who understand how the wall was built. From our base in Canton, we have grown into a commercial envelope contractor serving Metro Atlanta and North Georgia, including Duluth and the rest of Gwinnett County.
We do not paint, roof or remodel. We survey facades, test for water, replace failed sealant and flashing, repair substrate, restore and recoat stucco and EIFS, and install new systems for general contractors. Keeping that focus is how we learned the failure patterns of the building types that fill Duluth's corridors, from 1990s EIFS office buildings to garden-style apartment communities and newer mixed-use buildings downtown.
For a Duluth client, that means a site walk with someone who knows what to look for, a written scope you can take to an owner or board, and crews that work around tenants and residents. Many of our clients are property managers and associations who have called us back for years.
