Stone Veneer Installation in Plano

Stone veneer on facades, columns, chimneys, and surrounds for Plano homes. Natural or manufactured, detailed to drain and last.

Stone veneer changes the face of a Plano house, and on the brick-heavy 80s and 90s builds out through Willow Bend, Deerfield, and Prestonwood it is one of the more popular updates. We install stone veneer on facades, columns, chimneys, and kitchen surrounds across Plano, natural and manufactured stone, set so it sheds water and lasts.

The detail that separates a veneer that lasts from one that fails is the moisture detailing behind it. Stone veneer is not waterproof; water gets behind it, and it has to drain back out. We install a drainage plane, a weep screed at the base, and proper flashing so moisture has a way out. On an older Plano home where we are veneering over existing brick or sheathing, getting that layer right is the whole job.

Natural stone and manufactured stone each have a place. Natural stone has the depth and variation of real rock and carries more weight, which affects the structure it hangs on. Manufactured stone is lighter and more uniform, costs less, and covers more wall for the budget. We show you both against the house, since Plano's mature, shaded yards change how a stone reads in daylight.

Mortar-set and dry-stack are the two looks. Mortar-set shows a grout joint between the stones for a more traditional face; dry-stack fits the stones tight with no visible joint for a cleaner, modern look. Both need the same moisture detailing behind them. We use veneer on chimneys and columns to tie the exterior together, and on kitchen surrounds and outdoor fireplaces so the stone carries through the yard.

We match the stone to the brick and trim already on the house so the veneer looks like part of the home. See our Plano work and the full range of stonework. Every job starts with a free on-site estimate.
