Gunnite/Shotcrete Repair Cost

Construction ITEM DESCRIPTION

Masonry construction estimating cost for repair of gunnite or shotcrete "blown" masonry siding.

Unit Size

One square foot.

Labor Costs

We figure about 24 square feet per hour by a 3-person crew (one skilled mason, two unskilled workers). The cost includes mixing and application of a stucco coat, and texturing to match existing gunnite appearance.

Note that this cost does not include the cost of installing a backing vapor barrier or reinforcing mesh, or replacing any rotted sheathing or structural members.

Material Costs

Mortar raw materials.

Suggested Quantity

No suggested quantity. Enter the amount of area that needs repairing or replacing.

Source of Construction Pricing

A "rule of thumb" from a local subcontractor who was experienced at matching the gunnite texture. We tried with our own crews but never got the knack.

Places Included

Architect Starter File, Construction Starter File, Developer Starter File.
