Howdy all, in this video, explained stucco preservation and stucco structural longevity.
How would one achieve this? Excellent question; glad you asked.

Keep all the cracks in your stucco walls caulked and paint at least every ten to fifteen years. Then, or whenever common sense dictates, you notice cracks after storms that were not there before.
If this simple but ignored maintenance is routinely done, you will never have to remove and repair stucco.

Soooo, we removed the necessary stucco, attached two layers of 60-minute paper to the studs, reattached the old cedar wood lath, then stuccoed the entire lower area under the stucco belly band.

The owner asked my opinion of this wall.

folks, in my 40 year professional opinion this old 0ld wood lath was the most effective wood lath ever invented. Not only did it provide solid backing but sheer wall strength, which has been a new code since 1980. By the new code that demands new plywood on the exterior studs. These old key redwood and often treated boards had keys to embed the new stucco also, a thick tar paper was attached to the studs prior to nailing on these old stucco exterior boards.

However, to determine this, some exploration was necessary to see the extent of the damage.
We pulled off the rotted belly band and found the stucco placed over the old cedar lath to be damaged.
