Manufactured stone veneer is an extremely versatile building material.  It is produced using exact replicas of natural stone.  It is then cast in flexible molds and hand-colored with iron oxide pigments.  Made of light-weight aggregate materials, stone veneer is approximately one-quarter the weight of full-thickness stone and can be adhered to almost any wall surface, both interior and exterior.  Some of the benefits of using manufactured stone are:

Light-weight- Due to the light-weight nature of manufactured stone, it can be installed in places where traditional masonry products are not feasible,  such as above roof lines, interior applications, and exterior locations where no brick ledge is available.

Low Maintenance- Manufactured stone requires almost no maintenance or upkeep.

Increases the Retail Value- Manufactured stone adds character and beauty to your home and increases its retail value.

Cost Effective- In most cases the cost is only slightly higher than siding or stucco.

Durable- Manufactured stone will outlast siding or stucco exteriors.
