Hybrid stucco exterior--need Seattle area inspecto

[David Meiland]

I have a customer whose home has hybrid stucco cladding. Most of it is (I believe) two coats of cement stucco with a third coat of acrylic that also serves as the color, total of about an inch thick, with chicken wire. The details around windows, door, columns, etc., are built up using styrofoam and appear to have only the color coat over them. There are signs of failure, and the owner asked me for an opinion. My opinion is that a specialist in this type of cladding system needs to be the primary, and specify all of the repairs. This is in zip 98250, between Seattle and Bellingham. Anyone come to mind?
