Details that last

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.

What we build & refinish

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.

Built for truck traffic

Monument & entry signs

Sign bases and monument walls for shopping centers, office parks and residential communities, finished to match the property.

First thing visitors see

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.

Drained behind the wall

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.

Bases kept dry

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.

Weak point on every roof

Cornices & foam profiles

Cornices, bands, window surrounds and tower details shaped in foam, reinforced with mesh and finished to match or contrast.

Sloped tops, sealed joints
Substrate first

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.

Our process

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.

Walls & details in Dunwoody

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.

Monument signs

Stucco and foam monument signs repaired, refinished or rebuilt for rebranding and tenant changes.

Entry & screen walls

Community entry walls, columns and dumpster or equipment screens rebuilt to shed water.

Parapets & cornices

Foam cornices, bands and parapet caps repaired, re-flashed and matched to the building.

Questions & answers

Site wall & detail questions in Dunwoody

What Dunwoody property managers and boards ask about stucco walls, signs and trim.

Why is the stucco on our entry wall cracking and peeling?
Usually water is getting in through the cap or wicking up from the base. Repairing the finish without correcting the cap and base drainage means the damage returns.
Can you rebuild a monument sign for a new property name?
Yes. We can modify or rebuild a stucco monument sign, add foam profiles and finish it to match the property. The sign panels and lettering themselves are usually provided by a sign company.
Do monument signs or site walls in Dunwoody need city approval?
New or changed signs and walls are often regulated. Check with the City of Dunwoody about sign and permit requirements before changing a monument sign or building a new wall.
Can you repair entry walls at our Dunwoody condo or apartment community?
Yes. Entry walls and columns at multifamily communities are common projects. For condo associations, confirm any board or association approval needed before we schedule.
What is foam trim and how long does it last?
Foam trim is shaped expanded polystyrene coated with a reinforced base and finish. Properly detailed with sloped tops and sealed joints, it holds up well; most failures come from flat tops that hold water.
How are walls and details priced?
By size, condition, the amount of rebuilding needed and the finish. We give a written, itemized quote after a site walk.
