Calculating materials needed to stucco

You people have helped me before, thanks for that.

If you want to learn more, please visit our website.

I am owner/builder of a house in Riverside County, Ca.  I found someone interested in stuccoing the house (too small a job for everyoue else), but I don't think his materials list is correct.  I went to order the stuff, and a stuccoer there questioned the quantities.  The house has about 400 yrds of wall.  I was told that 1 sack of cement covers 5 yrds, so that is 80 sacs, how much sand goes with that.  1 roll of chicken wire covers 50 yrds, that is 8 rolls.  How much tar paper do I need, (and I was told to use 60min paper).  I am required to use a double layer of felt/tar paper.  I think 1 sack of stucco covers 10 yrds, so I need 40 sacs.  Can someone give me some 'rules of thum' on this, or some direct answers.

Thanks

Clint
