Natural stone or manufactured veneer

Both last when the water detailing behind them is right. Weight, budget and the wall you already have decide which one fits.

Heavy; often needs its own footing or a structural ledge.
Light; hangs on lath over the wall, no footing on most homes.

Four details where stone meets stucco

The stone itself rarely fails first. Water gets in at the transition to the stucco field, so these four go on every stone job we do.

A masonry ground floor meeting the stucco above: the line where these details go.

  1. Flashing through the transition

    Stops water from following the seam into the wall.

    Skipped: staining and rot start at the stone line.

  2. Weep screed under the stone

    Keeps the wall’s drainage plane continuous behind the new cladding.

    Skipped: moisture is trapped behind the stone.

  3. Sloped cap or sill

    A sloped top ledge sheds rain off the wall below.

    Skipped: a flat ledge holds water and freeze-thaw pops the joint under it.

  4. Control joints kept visible

    The wall still moves with the seasons, so the joint runs through the accent.

    Skipped: the stone or its mortar joint cracks instead.

Stone installation questions

Where does stone give the most for the money?
On the entry surround and the lower third of the front elevation, which people see from the street and the door. Pick one or two zones and keep them consistent; stone around single windows looks like a patch.
Can you add stone to an existing stucco house?
Yes. We cut back the stucco in that area, expose the sheathing, add new lath and flashing, and carry the weep screed under the stone. The rest of the wall stays as it is.
Is manufactured veneer convincing up close?
The tells are repeated pieces and even colour. We mix stone from several boxes and plan the layout, so at normal viewing distance most people cannot tell.
Do you install stone in winter?
Mortar-set stone needs above-freezing weather, so the season runs roughly April to November. Heated enclosures can extend it on larger, usually commercial, projects.
How long does a stone job take?
A typical detached home takes one to two weeks, weather permitting. We put the schedule in writing before we start.
