Why Act Now: The Case for Delray Beach Building Owners

01

Commercial stucco repair costs significantly less than full facade removal and re-application or the structural repairs that become necessary when moisture infiltration behind a commercial facade advances unchecked through multiple Atlantic storm seasons

02

Spalling stucco on occupied facades above public entrances and pedestrian walkways on Atlantic Avenue creates falling hazard liability that compounds with every rain event and every named storm

03

On historically significant commercial facades in Delray Beach's Marina District and Atlantic Avenue historic core, incorrect repair using incompatible modern mortars causes substrate damage that cannot be undone, acting with the correct specification now prevents irreversible loss

04

Resolves Florida milestone inspection stucco deficiencies before they escalate to additional citations, enforcement action, or building occupancy restrictions under Florida Statute 553.899

05

Completed with a phased programme that keeps the commercial building operational and minimises disruption to Atlantic Avenue tenants and the surrounding pedestrian environment

06

Backed by a written workmanship warranty with full documentation for building records, engineer of record review, and milestone inspection compliance files

Our 6-Step Process

From First Call To Final Walkthrough

Every project follows the same disciplined sequence. No improvising, no shortcuts.

01
Day 1

Free On-Site Assessment

We inspect every affected element, perform delamination mapping, depth testing, and substrate evaluation. For recertification properties, we review the engineer's deficiency report alongside our findings.

02
Within 1 week

Written Scope And Fixed-Price Proposal

Fully itemised, fixed-price proposal. For recertification scopes, includes material specs, mix designs, and methodology that the building department and the engineer of record require.

03
Pre-mobilisation

Pre-Construction Coordination

Coordinate with property managers, HOA boards, building engineers, and tenants. Phasing plans, parking deck traffic management, and tenant communication established before site mobilisation.

04
Day 1 of work

Surface Preparation

All deteriorated and chloride-contaminated concrete removed to the correct depth before any repair material is introduced. The step that determines whether the repair holds for the life of the building.

05
Main scope

Repair And Restoration

Repair mortars, injection resins, traffic coatings, waterproofing membranes, and sealers applied in correct sequence. We provide contractor's affidavit, material data sheets, and completion docs for recertification scopes.

06
Close-out

Final Inspection And Documentation

We walk every restored element with the property manager before close-out. On recertification scopes, we provide the written completion documentation the engineer of record needs to file with the city.

The Honest Answer

Restoration Vs Replacement

Some contractors push replacement because it generates a larger contract. We do not. Here is the head-to-head.

Frequently Asked

Delray Beach Stucco Repair FAQ

The questions Delray Beach owners ask most. Tap any to expand.

Florida Statute 553.899 requires condominium and cooperative buildings 3 stories or taller to undergo milestone structural inspection at 25 years if within 3 miles of the coastline, or at 30 years otherwise, then every 10 years thereafter. Delray Beach is within 3 miles of the Atlantic coastline, which means most of the city's 3-storey-plus condo, co-op, and mixed-use buildings built in the 1990s and early 2000s are either within or approaching their first milestone inspection. When structural inspectors cite facade stucco failure, spalling, or delamination, the building owner must submit a repair plan to the Delray Beach Building Division, complete the repairs, and provide documented completion to close the citation. Stucco failure is among the most commonly cited facade conditions in these reports. Anthony Pennacchi & Son's prepares the full documentation package, material data sheets, methodology, batch records, and warranty, for Building Division submission alongside the completed repair.
