Home Improvement Professionals
HomePRO is a specialist contractor, not a general remodeler. Since 1996 we have focused on one thing: diagnosing and repairing water leaks on stucco homes across the greater Sacramento region—one of the most common and costly problems facing California homeowners.
When water gets behind stucco, the damage often stays hidden until it’s serious. Our experienced team finds the true source of the problem and repairs it correctly, so you don’t pay twice for the same issue. It’s the difference between a patch and a real fix.

What to check on your stucco home after Sacramento's first big storm: 8 warning signs of a leak, when to call someone, and when it can wait.
Stucco & Water Intrusion5 min read
Some cracking around windows and doors is normal and cosmetic, and some is a sign of more serious issues behind the stucco. Here’s how to tell the difference.
Common Questions
Common signs include staining or bubbling paint on interior walls, cracks in the stucco, soft or spongy areas, a musty smell, or visible moisture near windows and doors. Because water travels behind the wall, damage is often worse than it appears, and leaks can go on for years before showing inside the home. An accurate professional diagnosis is the essential first step.
Stucco is not actually waterproof. The water-resistant barrier is underneath the stucco and consists of building paper and flashing that also acts as a drainage plane. When that paper or flashing is installed incorrectly or becomes damaged, water can enter the wall cavity and the interior of the home.
HomePRO specializes in stucco repair, water leak detection and repair, dry rot repair, stucco inspections, and related exterior repairs. Water intrusion on stucco homes is our core expertise — we are specialists, not general remodelers.
