What Is Manufactured Stone Veneer?
Manufactured stone veneer is an architectural masonry product designed to reproduce the appearance, texture and color variation of natural stone. It is formed from concrete-based materials using molds created from real stone, then colored to produce realistic profiles and finishes.
Because it is lighter than full-depth stone, manufactured stone veneer can be used on many remodeling and new-construction projects without the structural requirements associated with traditional full-bed stone masonry.
The final appearance depends heavily on layout, corner placement, cutting, joint treatment and the installer’s ability to avoid obvious patterns. A quality installation should look natural and balanced rather than repetitive or pieced together.

Installation Details Matter
A successful stone veneer project involves more than attaching individual pieces to a wall. The substrate, moisture-management system, lath, scratch coat, mortar, flashing and termination details must be appropriate for the project and installation conditions.
The visible work also requires careful planning. Corners should be distributed naturally, repeated shapes should be separated, cuts should be placed discreetly, and the overall blend should remain balanced across the installation.
Lambdin Masonry approaches each project as a masonry installation, with attention given to both the underlying system and the finished appearance.
