FAQs
Manufactured stone can enhance any project with the beautiful look of natural textures at approximately 1/2 the cost and weight of natural stone. The light weight properties of this material eliminates the need for footers, wall ties and lintels above openings. Installing manufactured stone veneer is also less labor-intensive and has lower scrap or waste than full bed natural stone.
Type S mortar complying with ASTM C270 has been commonly used to bond manufactured veneer products. For additional bond strength and other benefits the use of a Modified Mortar meeting ANSI A118.4 and/or ANSI A118.15 can be used. For applications over cement board a Modified Mortar must be used. Building codes are changing and in areas that have adopted the 2024 building code the use of Modified Mortars are required and the only option for setting mortar.
Yes, for exterior applications use only cement board that complies with ASTM C1325. For interior installations, any ½” or 5/8″ cement board product is acceptable. Always bond the stone with polymer modified mortar compliant with ANSI A118.4 or ANSI A118.15. Do not use conventional Type S mortar for bonding stone to cement board. Please consult cement board manufacturer for board installation, tape, anchor and other instructions.
Adhered stone veneer is designed and intended as a wall covering. Using adhered stone veneer on a horizontally oriented fashion should only be done as an engineered system. Do not use adhered stone veneer as a paver or a wall cap. Do not install adhered stone in a situation in which continuous or frequent exposure to water is possible such as pool or Jacuzzi copings or surrounds. Adhered stone veneer is not intended to be installed on stair risers where deicing salts or snow shovels can damage the stone façade.
