Just realized my neighbor and I have totally different ideas about stucco repair in the Northeast Heights

Last week, my neighbor on Juan Tabo hired a crew to patch a crack with a premixed acrylic compound, saying it was faster and cheaper. I've always used the traditional 3-coat cement plaster method on my own house, which my dad taught me years ago. Which way do you think holds up better against our sun and freeze-thaw cycles?

Honestly, my own patch jobs look like a kindergartener did them, but that old school cement method your dad taught you is the real deal for our weather.

Your dad’s cement mix survived 20 years, @matthewsullivan.
