What Is Thin Brick and Stone Veneer?
Thin brick and stone veneer are real or manufactured slices of brick or stone, typically about 1 to 2 inches thick. Unlike traditional full-size materials, veneers are designed for decorative use and can be applied directly to existing surfaces without the need for full masonry support.
Veneers can be made from:
- Real cut stone or brick (natural veneer)
- Engineered stone or concrete products (manufactured veneer)
Despite their lighter weight, high-quality veneers deliver the same visual impact and texture as traditional materials, making them ideal for both new construction and remodeling projects.
Benefits of Veneer Installation
Choosing thin brick or stone veneer comes with a wide range of functional and aesthetic advantages:
Adds the look and feel of full masonry without added structural load
Quick installation with minimal disruption
Wide variety of styles, colors, and textures available
Enhances exterior curb appeal or interior design
Ideal for both residential and commercial spaces
Lower cost than full-depth stone or brick
Weather-resistant and low maintenance
Whether you're aiming for a rustic, traditional, or modern look, veneers offer incredible flexibility to match your design vision.

Our Veneer Installation Process
We follow a careful process to ensure your veneer installation looks great and performs well over time:
We inspect and prepare the wall surface for proper adhesion. This includes cleaning, repairing, and applying the appropriate base material (such as metal lath or cement board) if needed.
Surface Preparation
Layout and Planning
Our team plans the stone or brick layout for optimal visual balance and minimal waste. We review color patterns, edge alignment, and joint spacing before beginning.
Application and Mortaring
Veneers are installed using masonry adhesive or mortar, depending on surface type and location. We apply each piece with care, maintaining consistent lines and tight joints.
Grouting or Pointing
For brick veneer or stacked stone with visible joints, we finish with precision grouting or tuckpointing to ensure durability and clean aesthetics.
