Contacted Shane based on his rating on Angie's List. We had work on this same wall done previously by a sub-contractor used by a general contractor friend. Unfortunately, I felt the work done to be sub-standard. Decided to go back to Angie's List. I am so pleased that I did. The entire experience was absolutely outstanding!!! Even though Shane and his crew live on the other side of town, Shane was able to set up a time to personally examine the proposed job and give me, what I considered to be, a fair estimate. I told him there was no rush, just to fit me in at his convenience due to the travel distance involved. He said that it would most probably be several weeks. Approximately one week later, Shane called and asked if it would be convenient for me for him to send his foreman, Maurice, to do the job three days later. I agreed and Maurice arrived, promptly, at the time agreed upon. I am still amazed at the quality of the completed work, from the demolition that was needed through to the finished product!! Maurice is a highly skilled, hard working, extremely competent craftsman!! Were I to need stucco work done in the future, I would, without doubt, contact LaFortune Stucco and would have no qualms in recommending their work to anyone desiring a highly professional experience! Thank you, Shane and Maurice!!!!!.

They fit my small job in with a bigger job in my area and came out within two days of my request. Worker was prompt and friendly. A day later, I felt that it needed a second coat when it dried, and they came right back and added a second coat. It is now perfect. I would highly recommend this company.

This company not only does excellent work, in addition they are very professional and prompt. Shane and his crew answered all our questions very politely. The actual work went way beyond my expectations. The shed was done very nicely. They did such a great job on the house and walls, finding every little crack and repairing them, many that I hadn't even noticed. Just an all around great company to work with. I would recommend them to anyone.

Stucco on house needed repairs from water damage. Shane from LaFortune Stucco told me that he believed the water damage was from water seeping through the 1x6 tongue n grove above the stucco on the gable and running down the inside of the stucco to the bottom of the wall. I knew when it rained from the south the window would leak and drip on my window sill so his assessment was exactly right. Shane provided excellent and timely service. He also applied Stucco above to the 1x6 gable to prevent water damage from occurring again. I will be having LaFortune Stucco come back in a few weeks to paint the repaired Stucco. I would recommend LaFortune Stucco.

Several areas on our home had a severe stucco problem caused by improper patching and painting by a house painter 2 years ago. All this resulted in an unsightly mess. We contacted LaFortune Stucco and talked with Shane LaFortune. He examined the problem areas and recommended a plan of action. He removed the old stucco and applied new stucco in the problem areas ? blending in perfectly with the original stucco. After 30 days curing, he applied the base coat and painted the areas to match the rest of the house. He did an outstanding job at a reasonable price and we highly recommend Shane LaFortune.

The time between the estimate and being done with the work was only 3 days. They were on time, professional, and got everything done with a minimum of fuss. The walls look like new (except that I can't paint them until the stucco cures, which I knew in advance).

From the moment we set up a time to meet I was impressed with his punctuality and professionalism. Their crew showed up, blew out the project, and it was a little cheaper than their initial estimate. Good work and a good experience.

Shane was responsive to my email asking for a quote on a small retainer wall on the side of my house. We texted back and forth then I called him to schedule. It was small job (2 hours) and he sent his foreman, Luis, over on a Saturday morning to stucco the small wall (approx. 15 feet by 3 feet). Luis was on time, spoke good english, and explained what he was going to do. He put down a tarp as to not make a mess and went straight to work. I had a couple holes in my stucco that were not part of the wall I hired him to do and he was kind enough to patch those as well. He cleaned up well afterwards. I would definitely use Shane and Luis again. Good quality, good responsiveness.

LaFortune Stucco showed up when Shane said they would, kept everything clean and did a fantastic job. One of the more important parts is communication, Shane communicated with us all the time, kept us up to speed on progress, expected dates & times. His crew actually cares about their work product and care about your property. We've had quite a bit of experience in remodeling homes in NM and AZ, and Shane and LaFortune Stucco are quite simply one of the best subs you could hope for. If there were a way to give an A+, I would without hesitation. He has a lot of business for a reason, LaFortune Stucco is well worth the wait.

The work done by Shane and his crew was excellent. Shane was on site the entire time and you couldn't ask for a nicer guy to work with. The new stucco blends seamlessly into the existing original rough textured stucco. Neighbors asked for his name and had him do theirs as well. Another neighbor's work - done by someone else- doesn't blend at all and really looks bad. We will definitely call Shane for any future stucco work.
Description of Work: Top 2' of garage walls were deteriorated wood sheathing, lower walls are rough stucco. Shane removed the wood to create surface he could stucco & blend into existing stucco, so now entire garage walls are stucco. A huge improvement!

The owner Shane answered my call and quickly made an apt to give me a quote. He explained what was wrong in certain areas and gave me options on what we could do to fix it. He showed up on time (every time he came) as did his workers. After the workers were done, I inspected the house and found a couple of areas that I didn't think were 100% correct. I contacted Shane and he quickly came back and refused to accept any payment until his guys came back and fixed things to my satisfaction. I am very happy with his professionalism, responsiveness, and the final outcome of the work. He will be the first person I call in the future should I ever need stucco work done again.
Description of Work: My house had been painted about 7 years prior. The painters had repaired the stucco in several places, but almost all of their repairs were showing through and there were some areas where the stucco just didn't look healthy. I didn't want a painter to simply smear caulk on walls and paint over it. I wanted someone who's primary job was stucco.

Shane Lafortune and his crew raised our block wall, patched the stuco to match and applied stucco to the block wall around our property. Shane was on site for the work, personally installed the block and patched the stucco. He is a perfectionist and it shows in his work. He and his crew are punctual, professional, methodical, and their work is flawless. The crew laid down tarps and wrapped our plants and lights in plastic. They left the place spotless. We could not be happier with our stucco. I highly recommend Shane and LaFortune Stucco.

I am happy that Shane was fast in doing my job and he did a good job for the price we agreed on. I would give him my recommendation any time.
Description of Work: Talked to Shane on the phone Friday and he came out yesterday (Sunday) and looked at my job and gave me an estimate. Shane said it was a small job that he could do the next day and gave me his minimun price. He and two workers showed up today at 11:00 AM and completed the job in about 2 hours. They did a good job!

We remodeled an older home on an acre lot, Shane and his crew placed new stucco on entire home. Also, placed stucco on the block wall around the property. During the process they were able to cover up many flaws with the home, including uneven block work etc. They are professional, respectful, and listen to your concerns. They do not make you feel dumb when asking so many Q's. Shane has an eye for perfection and it shows in his work, he has integrity and honestly cares about your home. We used a sand finish on entire job and their work was flawless, we have had many compliments on a job well done. I would highly recommend Shane and his crew for any job you might have.

After meeting with a number of Stucco Repair companies, it was clear Shane was the most professional and honest of the bunch. Shane gave me a very fair quote. I live in a nicer neighborhood, though not in high end home, and was shocked how high some of the quotes i got were. The work was started about two weeks after I accepted his bid and was completed quickly and looks great. Shane is very knowledgable and pointed out how some of the prior work done on my house was not to his standards. Will use Shane again in a heart beat.

Great experience. Shane and crew showed up promptly and replaced water damaged lathe. Shane showed me where to cut costs without sacrificing quality. That was in contrast to two other contractors that wanted to cut corners. Work took two days and matched existing surface.

I have dealt with many construction contractors through the years. Getting a stucco contractor to take on a small repair job is virtually IMPOSSIBLE. They are either too busy or flat out do not return your call, much less come by for an estimate or to examine the job. Shane not only returned his call, he was EARLY to our meeting appointment, he gave an estimate on the spot, which I accepted and he returned and made the repair on the day he said he would. The repair was done neatly and competently. What more can you ask for? I would recommend his service to anybody needed stucco repair.

It was an outstanding experience. At all points Shane LaFortune was proactive in making contact with us, on time and the work was completed within the quoted budget. I contacted LaFortune Stucco and one other company to ask them to assess several exterior damaged stucco areas on our home that required repair and requested a quote for repair work. Shane LaFortune responded to my call, set an appointment for the next day, arrived on time, thoughtfully evaluated the damaged areas and explained what work he would do to effect the repair. We had a detailed discussion about what would be rebuilt, what structural pieces would be replaced and what would be refinished. He provided me a quote right then and followed up with a written quote - that matched the original- and his firm was less expensive than the second quote we received. Work was scheduled to begin 2 weeks later which it did, on time, and he called us in advance to confirm the start date. Shane was there personally along with two workers, and stayed until the stucco application was complete. Stucco requires a curing period of approximately 30 days before primer and paint are applied, and Shane proactively called to let us know they would be returning, right on schedule, to complete the painting. Visually you cannot tell where the repairs were, and having watched the complete process we are comfortable that the work done was of high quality.
