What is Natural Stone Veneer?

Natural stone veneer or real sawn thin stone is created from real, quarried stone that is sliced into thin pieces or otherwise cut to fit the needs of your design. Since it’s 100% real stone, it is naturally weather proof. It doesn’t chip or wear like manufactured stone veneer.

Natural Sawn Thin Stone vs Manufactured Stone Veneer

Disadvantages of Faux Stone Veneer

Also called engineered stone or faux stone, manufactured stone veneer is molded concrete that is artificially colored on the surface to look like popular natural stone. It was originally developed as a light weight alternative to heavy building stone. At the time, the technology did not exist to create sawn thin stone veneer.

Common Issues with Faux Stone Veneer

Once you know what to look for, you’ll start spotting the telltale signs of manufactured stone. Here are some we see on a regular basis:

Chips & Shaping Exposes Concrete Interior

Fades and Deteriorates

Discolors with Damaging Effloresence

High Absorbency Creates Consequences

Patterns Repeat Due to Limited Molds

Why pay for imitation, when you can get the real thing with all its benefits?

Why Choose Real Stone Veneer?

Natural Facing utilizes specialized saws to cut real stone into thin, easy-to-install veneer. Prior to this technology, manufactured or faux stone veneer was the only alternative to heavy building stone. Natural Facing is more durable, has a better color variation, and requires less maintenance than manufactured stone.

Durability

Real stone veneer is more durable than most building materials. It doesn’t chip or wear like manufactured stone. Natural stone can withstand everyday landscaping activities, active lifestyles, and even unplanned dings.

Maintenance Free

When installed properly, Natural Facing doesn’t require ongoing maintenance, like sealing or repairs. If for some reason it does require cleaning, you don’t have to worry about damaging the stones.

What Our Customers Say

The customer service is fantastic. You can always get people on the phone and their sales reps are wonderful. As far as cutting the stone, Natural Facing is also superior to other manufacturers I have dealt with in the past. I feel we have the best selection to work with thanks to our friends at Natural Facing.
Ralph

Maryland Dealer

We previously tried manufactured stone for a small retaining wall and firepit. Within just a few years, the fake stone was fading, chipped, and discolored. The same thing happened to our neighbors. Now that I know better, we will always use real stone veneer. My dealer and designer were able to talk directly to Natural Facing for samples and recieved regular order updates to keep things on schedule.

Cody

Homeowner, Baltimore Area

My experience with Natural Facing has been nothing short of fantastic.  Owner and President Jennifer Wies is a wealth of knowledge and dedicated to the stone industry and Natural Facing’s dealer distribution network.  The stone is absolutely beautiful with several blends and patterns to appeal to design professionals and homeowners.
Deb

Virginia Dealer

Real stone might be a couple dollars more a square foot, but over time it will not lose its color. In the early 2000’s manufactured stone was popular and very price effective because thin stone did not exist.  When I look at homes I built or homes that I visit as a realtor that are 15 to 20 years old the color has faded out.
