It is traditional Stucco Lahabra Alamo 524 Base 200 and not EIFS. I wish it was EIFS. I will say this, if not a concern for any of the damage that can be caused by moister/water damage the fact that it sevierly degrades the value of my home is real. I would not consider this home ready to sale for only the stucco issues although I intend to be my forever home. This does not meet my standards and if I had of known more cracks was coming I would/should of passed on it. Very frustrating.

With stucco, it is hard as concrete. With EIFS, it looks the same, but if you push your thumb into the wall with a lot of force, the wall flexes a bit, or is soft to the touch.

I see cracks like that all the time, but since that does not fall under what I can address for my job, I don't have any input on what you need to do to fix it. I'm interested in what you find out!
