Stone Walls
Stone Walls, also called Stone Veneers are beautiful structures that a stone contractor can use to enhance the look of a house or a patio.
They can be built with thick or thin natural stone or artificial stone veneer. This, together with the several colors and designs availables, gives us almost infinite possibilities when choosing a design for our house.

Thin natural stone is usually installed the same way as the artificial stone as they are both about 1.5" thick. They are perfect to cover exisiting walls (such as brick, concrete or wood).
The stone veneer is installed right against the wall with a layer of waterproofing and a steel lath reinforcement. Then, depending on the stone type, we can install them with a mortar joint, or mortarless for a more natural look..
Thick stone veneer, which is also called building stone, is about 4" thick. This makes the installation a little more difficult for the stone contractor since the extra weight will require a proper footer to support the finished stone wall.
These stone veneers are perfect for outside walls and look nicer than the thin veneers. But they are more expensive to install.
I would not recomend this as a DIY project... But if you need help from a professional stone contractor to install or just help you with your project, gives us a call. We offer free estimates for all Montgomery County and Maryland!!
