Stucco Issues on 2012 Built Vantage Home

[Skywalker]

Trying to match that color so far at Home Depot and KWAL is been terrible. There is a house about 100 yards away that looked terrible. Stucco of course. One entire end had been rolled with latex and was off by about four shade and was just a community eye soar. However, I seen a team in there Monday morning that painted the entire home same color now looks fantastic. I'm sure she had cracks as I could see them from the street. If this holds and I could say this is a methold of sealing the stucco and maybe a cost effective metod to resolve this if the builder does not help and I'm sure they will not offer any help.

I grew up where stucco was used on 90% of houses and thoese all look pretty normal from settling. Fill them in with a strechable selant and paint them and be done with it. When the cracks start to get all broken up and peices pop off you have a problem.

The best you can do on a color match is about a shade off. You will always be able to tell that it was painted after the fact, even if you have the original paint. You can either accept this difference or you need paint the entire house. Maybe you could get away with painting just one side, but it will always be noticeable to someone who looks at the entire house.
