What Is Manufactured Stone Veneer?
Manufactured stone veneer (also called cultured stone or faux stone) is a man-made product composed of Portland cement, lightweight aggregates, and iron oxide pigments. Each piece is cast in molds taken from natural stone, creating remarkably authentic reproductions.
At roughly one-third the weight of natural stone, manufactured veneer can be applied directly to most wall surfaces without the need for additional structural support, footings, or wall ties. This makes it significantly faster and more affordable to install.
Garden State Brickface works with leading manufacturers including Eldorado Stone, Coronado Stone, and Dutch Quality to offer a vast selection of colors, textures, and profiles — from stacked ledgestone to tumbled fieldstone to cut cobblestone.
Applications
Popular Uses for Manufactured Stone Veneer
Home Facades
Add stone accents to your front elevation for dramatic curb appeal. Combine with siding or stucco for a mixed-material look that stands out in any neighborhood.
Foundation Skirting
Cover exposed foundation walls with stone veneer to create a polished, finished look that hides concrete block and adds visual weight to the base of your home.
Chimneys
Wrap existing brick or block chimneys in stone veneer for a complete facelift. Manufactured stone is lightweight enough to apply without chimney structural modifications.
Entry Steps & Stoops
Resurface concrete steps and stoops with stone veneer for an upscale entryway. Pairs beautifully with stone columns, pillars, and garden walls.
Outdoor Living
Use manufactured stone on outdoor kitchens, fire pits, retaining walls, and patio surrounds to create cohesive, high-end outdoor living spaces.
Interior Accents
Stone veneer works beautifully indoors on fireplace surrounds, accent walls, wine cellars, and commercial lobby features. Lightweight enough for any interior wall.
Manufactured vs. Natural Stone
Both options deliver beauty and durability, but there are important differences to consider:
- Cost: Manufactured stone veneer costs 30-50% less than natural stone, including labor
- Weight: At 6-10 lbs/sq ft vs. 25-30 lbs/sq ft, manufactured stone requires no additional footings or structural reinforcement
- Installation speed: Manufactured stone installs 2-3x faster due to lighter weight and flat backs
- Color consistency: Manufactured stone offers uniform color batches; natural stone varies from piece to piece
- Durability: Both last 50+ years with proper installation. Manufactured stone carries comprehensive warranties
For most residential applications, manufactured stone veneer delivers the same visual impact as natural stone at a significantly lower cost and with greater design flexibility.
