Modern Stucco Finishes for New Construction: A Custom Build by Nuwall Inc.

Omega Sand Finish Stucco for New Custom Home in San Diego – A Nuwall Inc. Project

If you’re planning a custom home in Southern California, the exterior finish is more than a cosmetic detail—it’s your home's first impression, its protection against the elements, and a key part of long-term curb appeal. At Nuwall Inc., we specialize in stucco and drywall solutions for both custom builds and remodels throughout San Diego County and surrounding coastal areas. This recently completed new construction stucco project is a perfect example of the craftsmanship and attention to detail we bring to every job.

Project Overview: New Construction Stucco in San Diego with Omega Sand Finish

This home, located in the coastal foothills of San Diego, California, was a ground-up custom build. We were contracted to provide a complete stucco exterior system, including all necessary prep, lathing, and finish work. The client selected the Omega sand finish, a lightly textured option that delivers a clean, contemporary look while offering the durability and weather resistance Southern California homes demand.

Our scope included:

Full lath and waterproofing system to meet current California building codes

Three-coat cement plaster system for long-term structural performance

Final color coat using Omega Stucco’s premium sand finish

Precision detailing around windows, transitions, and architectural features

The result is a smooth, natural-looking stucco exterior with subtle texture that catches light beautifully—blending effortlessly with the modern architectural design of this custom home.
