Precise Windows LLC installs stone veneer accents on homes across the Denver Metro area, most often at an entry, a porch column, or a single wall section rather than the whole house. Stone veneer is a manufactured or natural stone product applied over the existing wall, and it is used to add texture and curb appeal to a specific spot rather than replace the siding across the home. This page covers what goes into a proper stone veneer install, including the drainage plane underneath it, and where it tends to fit best. We serve Englewood, Denver, Littleton, and the rest of the Denver Metro area for this kind of exterior accent work.
Thinking about adding a stone accent to your home's exterior?
Stone veneer works best on a focal point, an entry wall, a porch base, a chimney chase, or a section that faces the street, rather than covering an entire house. It is applied over a drainage plane and weather-resistant barrier attached to the wall, not directly onto the siding or sheathing, which is what keeps water from getting trapped behind the stone. Homeowners typically add it when updating a front entry or looking to break up a plain wall with texture, and it pairs with vinyl, fiber cement, or stucco siding on the rest of the house.
Signs stone veneer is a fit for your project
A plain entry or porch wall
A front entry with flat siding or bare stucco is one of the most common places homeowners add a stone veneer accent, since it is the first thing visitors see.
An existing wall section with damage
If a wall section already needs new siding, that is a natural point to switch to a stone veneer accent there instead of just replacing like for like.
A chimney chase or column that needs updating
Chimney chases and porch columns are common spots for stone veneer since they are a defined, contained area that shows off the texture well.
Wanting to raise curb appeal before selling
A stone accent at the entry is one of the more visible upgrades for the effort involved, which is why it often comes up ahead of listing a home.
What we look at before installing
What the wall is currently made of
The existing wall material and its condition determine how the drainage plane and lath get attached before the stone goes on.
Where water sheds off the roofline or gutters nearby
Water running off above the stone accent needs a place to go, so we look at what is happening above the section before installing.
How the section ties into the surrounding siding
Stone veneer needs a clean transition where it meets the existing siding, so the trim and flashing at that edge get planned before installation starts.
Structural support for the added weight
Manufactured stone is lighter than natural stone but still adds weight to the wall, so we confirm the wall can support it before installing.
What to expect during the visit
We start by looking at the section you're considering and talking through what look and stone style fits the house. We check what is currently on that wall, whether it is siding or stucco, and how the drainage plane and lath need to be attached underneath the stone before it goes up. We install a weather-resistant barrier and drainage plane first, then the lath and scratch coat, and finish with the stone itself, keeping the top and edges properly flashed so water sheds away from the wall rather than behind the stone. We text photos of the progress so you can see each stage.
Related services you may need
If the wall you're accenting also needs new siding elsewhere on the house, our Siding & Exteriors service covers the full range of materials. Entry doors often get updated alongside a stone accent at the front of the house, which falls under our Doors service, and any exterior painting nearby is handled through Exterior Painting.
The cost of waiting
There's no damage risk in waiting to add a stone veneer accent since it is a curb appeal upgrade rather than a repair, but a wall section that already has cracked or worn siding underneath will keep deteriorating either way. If you're planning to add stone over a section that already has water damage or failing siding, addressing that first keeps the new stonework from being installed over a problem that is still there.
Does stone veneer need to be installed a certain way to avoid water problems?
Yes, stone veneer needs a drainage plane and weather-resistant barrier installed underneath it, not applied directly to the wall, so that any water that gets past the stone has somewhere to go. Skipping that step is what leads to water damage behind the stone later on.
How much of the house should get stone veneer?
Most homeowners use stone veneer as an accent on an entry, porch, or single wall section rather than the whole exterior, since that is where it has the most visual impact. It pairs well with vinyl, fiber cement, or stucco on the rest of the house.
What affects the cost of a stone veneer accent?
Cost depends on the size of the section, the stone style chosen, and what the wall underneath needs before the stone goes on. A section that already has damaged siding or sheathing will need that addressed first, which adds to the scope.
