View Full Version : "New Construction" windows in old construction?

I am replacing two 8' slider doors and one 3040 window with "new construction" vinyl ones. I am having stucco work done anyways so decided they could be patched up when the stucco is done.

My question is how far from the edge of the sliders/window does the stucco have to be removed to prep it for the stucco patchwork?

How is the new stucco blended with the old?

Any tips or pointers on the whole process?
