Tesuque Stucco Company, LLC

In October 2022, Tesuque Stucco Company did an outstanding job re-stuccoing my entire house, including rebuilding parapets. It was a complicated job. From start to finish, it was handled by proficient and knowledgeable professionals, including estimator, Anthony, and office personnel, Ramona and Amy. Omar and his crew were technically skilled and efficient and they cleaned the entire area after finishing. I definitely would recommend this company

High marks for telling me what to expect, the way in which work would be done, and how long to anticipate the job taking. The crew was industrious, well trained, and well supervised, and worked diligently. All of the preparation steps -- as important to waterproofing and stucco longevity as the final stucco coat itself -- were taken. The final appearance is excellent. The crew did a very good job of cleaning up around the house after the job was completed, and Tesuque Stucco personnel and I prepared a clean-up/touch-up "punch list" of a few remaining items. and they followed up to address them. This company will not submit the lowest bid for stucco work you can obtain. But you will receive an excellent product and workmanship -- and the longest warranty provided by any Albuquerque or Santa Fe stucco company of which I'm aware, and personnel will be careful, respectful of your property, and responsive to your requests and suggestions. It's important, when planning a stucco job, especially in the spring or the fall, to understand that work must be scheduled around rain, snow, and freezing temperatures, and so the originally-suggested start and finish dates for your job may slip -- either because of weather during that period, or because jobs earlier in the company's queue have had delays for these reasons, so approach the work schedule with maximum flexibility.

Ultimately, very well, once they accepted that their stucco material supplier had bungled the color that my wife and I had spent two days picking out from 288 options and then reviewing 4 large samples that we requested and the company provided to us. We received push back from the company after the supplier twice more was unable to create the right, standard Dryvit color we had picked. However, once they and the supplier accepted the fact that we were not going to accept a "nice" color that was not the color we wanted for a $50,000 project, they proceeded to get the right color and finished up an excellent job on which we have received numerous compliments from neighbors and friends.

Tesuque stucco was very professional and dedicated to doing the work to our satisfaction. We only had one glitch ( a small texture issue on one wall), which was fixed to our expectations. From the sales staff, to the work crew, and office, they were easy to work with.

Better than expected. We are please with the two weeks of work and the results are excellent. After one year, I see not cracks and we have no leaks. Worth the price.

Very well. The workers arrived on time, worked extremely hard, left the job site clean and were responsive to all my questions and concerns.

They did not complete the work as written in the contract but offered for an additional amount to complete it. Martin is condescending and a good salesman. I received a 3 page letter why he was not going to honor the 1 year contract, as the stucco had cracked around windows that he had repaired.. And he never repaired around the garage window only the corners. In small print on the back of the contract, the only way to resolve complaints is through a very expensive company. Highly recommend not to use this company.

We had a lot of work done to our flat roofed home that required more than the usual costs to re-stucco. Care was made to make sure that the repair was complete and dry before the actual re-stucco process. They came out several times, on their own, to be sure any holes around outdoor lights etc., were sealed properly and painted.

Although there was a timeout between the repair and the actual stucco work (too cold), the job was done without problems and the crew left the job site clean as before they arrived. They even came back to do some repair work to the outside wall left by a well-known plumbing company...and without charge!

They came over, looked at it, but not never got back to me with an estimate even though I contacted them again to ask for it.

My wife wrote a scathing review about Tesuque Stucco's poor workmanship and complete disregard for our property and the $10Ks of damage they caused. They refused to make the job right. So, she wrote the review. They've tried to buy us off. Now they've found a way to eradicate her review. This is the most calculatingly dishonest company I've ever encountered. The Anthony and Martin show is sleazy. Anthony promises you the world. He describes Tesuque's standard process in explicit detail. No need to specify the details because they want to meet with you at every work day's end to assure everything is good. After you sign, you'll never see Anthony again. EVERY promise he makes is a lie. Nothing that he promises is standard. After Tesuque trashes your house and property, Martin will show up and tells you over and over again that (1) it's not in the contract; (2) there is no way Anthony would have promised you something that's not in their standard process (despite the fact that you probably don't know anything about stucco and have no basis for any expectation other than what he promised you); and (3) nothing is their fault. We have an awning. Anthony assured us they could work with it. Anthony also promised us that they hand-trowel the final coat. They don't spray. Our awning looks like it has measles. It's covered with overspray spots. Martin had the audacity to lie to my face and tell me that they don't spray. Like we couldn't look up and see the evidence. They permanently scored the planks on our deck by dragging patio furniture and planters around. Martin's excuse was that they were heavy. I'm sorry! A bucket/bag of stucco weighs more than 50 pounds. They can't lift a flower pot? In summary, they cut corners and do sub-quality work. We had to get them to come back three subsequent days to fix gaps in texture and coloration. They (Anthony) told it would take 7-10 days to do our job. They "did" it in four. Martin had the gall to claim that the three days of complaint-driven touch up work plus the four days into which they'd compressed the main job was the seven days Anthony originally estimated. Bottom line: when you challenge them, they make excuses or blame your expectations. I'm only writing this because we refused to be bought off for pennies on the dollar and Tesuque has worked to suppress our voice. They've wiped out my wife's comments. Now they'll try to silence mine. These guys aren't sloppy or careless. They're calculatingly dishonest. Avoid them for your own good.

First of all, the estimate and professionalism were outstanding. He showed up when he said he would, left us with information on the products he uses and recommends as well as other options, and promptly provided us with an estimate. There was no hard sell and I had time to research the products online and understood that they would work fine in our climate in Santa Fe as long as the installer was skilled and knowledgeable. Once we decided, we gave them a deposit of 1/2 to begin work. Their crew showed up on the given day. When we worked with Martin, the owner, we expressed how we had the stucco redone about 5 years before and used some people that said they knew how to stucco. The stucco was separating from the wall, was badly cracked, and was in very bad shape. That was a mistake. I expressed that I wanted his crew to feel free to cut back as much shrubbery as needed to get to the walls, and to dig down a few inches to seal the walls down to the stem wall. The crew did an incredible prep job. I had recently had an additional garage put onto the house and had a seam that, although smooth, was noticeable. They took extra care to put mesh seal over that and on any of the major cracks in the house and wall. When they returned a couple days later, their crew was professional. I was amazed how quickly they got through the entire house. I noticed a small gap on one of the canales that could cause issues if water got in and pointed it out to the foreman. He actually got a ladder and fixed it himself. These guys knew what they were doing. My house looks outstanding! I waited several months to post a review to see how the winter and wet season (if you can call it that) affected the worksmanship. Not a single issue. They also were great working with the roofers who had come in a couple weeks ahead of them to make sure all was sealed nicely with the flat roof. If anything happens in the next few years, I'll let you know how the warranty service works out, but so far, they've been great and I love the results.

Quality of the work was excellent and completed on time and within the original estimate. My only criticism was they could have been neater during the job and performed periodic clean ups. The final cleanup was well done.

Martin (owner 0f Tesuque Stucco) promptly returned my call inquiring about the Company's service. We arranged for a time to meet and review the condition of the stucco originally covering the wall. He was on time and answered all my questions regarding the current condition of the wall and how the repairs would proceed. I was promised an proposal, contract and guarantee state by email later that day. The documents arrived in a timely manner. They were acceptable as drafted. They were signed and returned via snail mail along with a requested $500 deposit. The work, which was weather dependent, was scheduled by telephone. On the date scheduled the crew, accompanied by Martin, showed up on time. They were very professional completing the first phase of the work in a timely manner. Clean-up was well done and aside from expected physical changes to the wall you would never have known they were on the property. Repairs were allowed to cure for approximately 4 weeks. It was then time to cover the wall with the finish cat which contains pigment that matches the new stucco with the stucco on the remainder of the home. Again this work weather dependent. The crew and Martin arrived early on the appointed day and went right to work. Again they did a professional job, cleaned up and aside from a beautifully finished wall you would never know they were on site. We received a two year limited warranty and are very satisfied with the work that was done.

Overall it went okay. Most of the major cracks were repaired, though i felt that there were areas that needed attention and were missed. the stucco color matched the house but not what was on the wall.

The project was not easy or your typical project. The building had been there for 15 years and needed stucco badly. we discussed what would be needed to make the project last and we agreed on a price and timetable. The crews were professional and timely. the project was completed in promised time. The company truly changed the building from a sow's ear into a silk purse.

Representative came to our home for an estimate on re-stucco. explained procedure and measured house. estimate was twice as much as we had the job done for, and results were just as good, when compared with jobs Tesuque had done.

Their prices seemed reasonable after I talked to neighbors and I ended used them. They did a great job and didn't leave a mess. We were very pleased with the end product. We were out of the house and they did a good job as far as I know, and they certainly cleaned up. There were no signs that they had been there except for the stucco work. We would recommend them.

I've had estimates from a couple of companies but I haven't had them do any work yet. They were fine and I don't have a problem. They came and just did what they do and gave me the estimate.

We had a few little problems that were resolved very quickly. The workmanship came out great! The solved all of our problems immediately.

. They were very good and very responsive. They did great work and cleaned up after themselves. It looks great. They were expensive, but I'm very pleased with their work. I referred them to my neighbor and they used them too. They are also very pleased. I would recommend them to anybody.

Tesuque sand-blasted and re-stuccoed in about a week. They did not bother the tenents and left the property very clean. They were very detailed in explaining the product and process to me. On my final inspection I had some questions and concernes and they took the time to correct a few imperfections and answer my questions. They were very professional.

What was supposed to be done in two weeks took three months. The old stucco on our house was patched within a week, to be followed by the stone and the new stucco. The first two attempt to install the stone were fiascoes. The work was terrible, as they did not know how to install the product. One of them also dumped thin set in the xeriscape rock on the side of the house, left the water on resulting in a burst hose, and used the large decorative rock in front of the house as a work surface, damaging it. We had to halt work each time and argue with Martin over the quality of workmanship. We eventually had to find a professional stone mason ourselves who had installed the exact same product many times and show photos of his work as examples of how the stone was supposed to look. After threatening to invoke the mediation clause in the contract, Martin agreed to use the professional stone mason. His work was excellent, and the stucco was finally applied.
