Turnkey Siding installs stucco siding in Harahan, from the river-levee neighborhoods to Colonial Club Estates. Our licensed in-house crew handles the entire project, and no subcontractors are ever part of it. Wedged between the levee and Elmwood in Jefferson Parish, Harahan’s homes gain a seamless, cement-based stucco finish that looks clean and holds up to the river-adjacent weather. Call 504-882-9704 for a free estimate.
Stucco gives a seamless finish but needs a proper drainage plane in our rain and can hairline-crack on settling soil, at roughly $7 to $14 per square foot installed.
Stucco Siding in Harahan, Between the Levee and Elmwood
Harahan occupies a narrow strip of Jefferson Parish, pinned between the Mississippi River levee and the Elmwood district, with the Huey P. Long Bridge marking the edge of town. That riverside position means the ground sits low and the humidity coming off the water hangs in the air, so homes here live with damp conditions much of the year. Stucco gives these houses a seamless, cement-based exterior, but in a spot this humid the drainage plane behind the finish is what keeps the wall dry. Without it, moisture gets trapped and works on the sheathing.
The river-levee neighborhoods and Colonial Club Estates sit on the soft alluvial soil the river laid down, and that ground settles over the years. As a foundation shifts, stucco that was not reinforced can crack in fine lines, so our crew details the control joints and strengthens the openings to absorb that movement. Harahan also catches the full heat, intense UV, and afternoon thunderstorms of a Gulf summer, along with the tropical-storm wind that pushes up the river. A stucco wall we install correctly stands up to all of it and asks for very little upkeep in return.
