Townhouse stuccoed in the Shaw area

After - REAL color cement stucco.
Color is "Ecru" from sherwin-williams. Here's the formula for five gallons.

Chimney re stucco
in Vienna, Virginia
Chimney leaks real bad from the crown, and the flashing. We re-did the crown, the flashing, added a drip edge, and flagstone chimney shoulders. You may have seen how we do our chimneys before.
Moss is growing out of the cracks. The twisted minded competition coated the chimney with EIFS mesh and EIFS finish, making deterioration worse,
Crown and drip band are finished first.
The finish texture matches on the money. The color is the leftover pastel yellow from the house in Bethesda above, which coincidentally matched.
