Installation

With proper installation in accordance with all local Building Code specifications, your stone surface should provide you with many years of gratifying service. While our stone products are designed to be installer-friendly, we recommend that you carefully select an experienced, skilled installation specialist to achieve the best possible results.

Our products can be applied to any structurally sound wall surface, with the following substrates being the most common:

Rigid Backwall

This substrate includes such surfaces as sheathing, wood paneling, plywood, sheetrock, and wallboard.

Open Studs

This substrate may feature a rigid foam insulation layer, and it also applies to metal studs or metal paneling.

Treated Masonry

This substrate includes all masonry surfaces which may have been painted, sealed, or otherwise treated.

Clean, Untreated Masonry

This substrate includes all masonry surfaces so long as the surface is clean and has not been painted, sealed, etc.
