Lath is a preparation step that involves attaching water-resistant paper, wire mesh, and other vinyl components to walls before applying cement stucco. It's the first in the stucco process and serves as a foundation for the stucco, a sturdy support system, and a defense against water damage.
Stucco is a building material that can be applied to walls to create a tight seal, cancel out sound, and be painted. It can be textured or applied to be smoother than glass. If applied correctly and maintained regularly, it will last a very long time. Otherwise, cracks and delamination may occur, and repairs or remediation might be needed.
