I'm going to be removing and installing a window of a different size as well as installing two new windows. The only part of the project that concerns me is the stucco (mainly because I'll be remodeling on the 2nd story).
I'm looking to add trim to the outside like the pics below and I'm not sure how to do it (three layers? one?). Also for one of my windows I will need to redo a lot of the stucco since I will be replacing the existing 3'x5' window with a 4'x4'. Sounds easy enough, except for some reason the outer wall is only composed of the barrier, metal, lath, and stucco! Nothing else! no osb or anything. My other concern is making sure I get the flashing right (or what ever it is I need to do to make sure the window trim is properly sealed).
Worst case scenario is that I would have to hire someone to do it and I'd rather learn how to do it right and know its done right but if I have to hire someone what is a ball park figure for doing a stucco job for three windows (2'x4'@2 and one 4'x4')?
