Common Stone Siding Service Questions

As stunning and natural as stone siding is, it's not for everyone. Some popular siding alternatives to stone siding include:

  • Aluminum siding

  • Brick veneer siding

  • Engineered wood siding

  • Fiber cement siding

  • Wood siding

  • Vinyl siding

If you want the look of natural stone siding without the high material and installation costs, vinyl siding may be one of the best alternatives. It’s lightweight, low-cost, and low maintenance but does have a lower life span than natural stone.

It costs between $9,800 and $18,000 to put stone siding on the front of a house for 250 square feet of exterior area. Stone veneer for the same area would cost between $5,000 and $6,000. 

The short answer is yes, stone veneer can be installed over brick. There are some problems you’ll need to solve if you decide to go this route, such as: can the existing brick hold the weight of the veneer? Is the brick able to be properly adhered to the veneer? What about a moisture barrier? Installing stone veneer over brick is certainly possible, but tick these problem areas off your list before starting any work.

Natural stone siding is one of the most durable siding materials available and should last the lifetime of the home. Stone veneer siding, while not as long-lasting as natural stone, still has a significant lifespan, typically ranging from 20 to 75 years, with an average of around 50 years. The longevity of stone veneer heavily depends on proper installation; poor installation can lead to issues like water leaks and structural damage, which will shorten its lifespan.
