First impressions start at the entrance
Before a tenant, customer or resident sees your building, they see your entrance. In Dunwoody that is often a stucco monument sign at an office park drive off Ashford-Dunwoody Road, a screen wall along a shopping center’s parking field, or a pair of entry walls and columns at an apartment or condo community. These elements stand alone in the weather, get hit by mowers and cars, and are easy to neglect until they look shabby.
Freestanding walls and details fail from the top down. A cap without enough slope or overhang lets water into the core of the wall, and a wall without a proper drainage path at its base wicks water up from the ground. The result is cracking, efflorescence, hollow spots and finish that peels away.
We repair these details by correcting how they shed water: new caps and copings, flashing and drip edges, and a sound base before the finish. On buildings, the same approach applies to parapets, cornices and foam architectural profiles. When a property is rebranding or updating, we can build new monument signs, columns, bands and trim and finish them to match the building’s facade.

Commercial site walls and facade details
New work or a refinish, the same rule applies to every piece: give water a way off and out.
Screen & dumpster walls
Block enclosures for dumpsters, mechanical equipment and loading areas, stuccoed on both faces with sloped caps and impact-resistant bases.
Monument & entry signs
Sign bases and monument walls for shopping centers, office parks and residential communities, finished to match the property.
Retaining walls
Block or concrete walls stuccoed on the face, with the soil side waterproofed and drained so ground water does not blister the finish.
Columns & piers
Entry columns, canopy piers and storefront piers wrapped and finished, with the base held off the slab so it does not wick water.
Parapets & copings
Parapet walls rebuilt or refinished with the coping, cap flashing and roof-to-wall details that keep water out of the top of the wall.
Cornices & foam profiles
Cornices, bands, window surrounds and tower details shaped in foam, reinforced with mesh and finished to match or contrast.
Each feature needs its own build-up
Stucco on a block screen wall bonds to the masonry; stucco on a framed column, parapet or sign base needs a weather barrier and lath like a building wall; foam cornices and bands are a different system again. Using the wrong build-up for the substrate is a common reason a detail cracks or comes loose within a few years.
We look at what each wall or feature is made of, how it drains, what it gets hit by and where it meets the building, and we put what it needs in the written scope. If the work is part of a larger project, we can schedule it with a stucco installation or a facade recoat so everything finishes in one color.
| Feature | Substrate | Key detail |
|---|---|---|
| Screen & dumpster wall | Block or concrete | Sloped cap, impact-resistant base |
| Retaining wall | Block or concrete | Soil side waterproofed & drained |
| Column or sign baseFramed | Barrier, lath, three coats | Base clear of slab, flashed top |
| Parapet | Framed or masonry | Coping & roof flashing |
| Cornice & bands | Shaped foam, mesh, base coat | Sloped tops, sealed joints |
How we build a wall or detail
Smaller pieces move faster than a full facade, but base coats still need time to cure, and work near drive aisles and entrances needs a plan.
Assess & plan
We look at the substrate, how water reaches the feature and where it ties into the building, then lay out caps, joints, flashing and site protection.
- Substrate identified
- Drainage & caps planned
- Traffic & access planned
Prepare & build
Masonry is cleaned and dampened for bonding, framed pieces get barrier and lath, and foam profiles are shaped and set.
- Loose material removed
- Lath or bonding coat
- Profiles set and reinforced
Coat & finish
Base coats go on and cure, then the finish is applied with color and texture matched to the building or set to the approved accent.
- Coats cured properly
- Texture matched by hand
- Joints sealed
Cracking on a sign base, column or parapet?
We will find out why before refinishing it, so the new coat does not crack the same way.
The details that frame a Dunwoody property
Entrances and site walls are some of the most visible stucco in the city, and some of the most exposed.
Dunwoody’s office parks, retail centers and multifamily communities rely on monument signs, entry walls and screen walls to define the property. Those structures sit in sun and rain all day, often next to irrigated landscaping, and take impact from vehicles and maintenance equipment. Repairing them is usually a short project, but it is the work tenants, customers and residents notice first.
