Exterior chimney chase wrap — Iron County
A 22-foot chimney chase originally sided in faded LP that the owners wanted clad in real stone. We added shelf angles for anchor support, installed a Tyvek + lath assembly, and set anchored natural stone over the full height. Three years in, no settling cracks, no efflorescence, no movement.
Representative project example — replace with real details before launch.
Frequently Asked
Q.What's the difference between adhered and anchored stone veneer?
Adhered veneer is thin (about 1–2 inches) and bonded to a scratch-coat substrate with mortar — lighter and faster. Anchored veneer is full-thickness stone tied back to the structure with metal anchors — heavier, more authentic, requires a shelf angle. We install both.
Q.Can you install stone veneer over existing siding?
Sometimes. We assess substrate, weight capacity, and water management first. Many vinyl- or hardboard-sided walls can take adhered veneer over a properly prepped scratch-coat. Brick or stucco substrates almost always work.
Q.Will the veneer crack or fall off over time?
Not when it's installed with proper flashing, weep screed, and a quality scratch-coat. Failures happen when water gets behind the veneer because flashing was skipped — we don't skip it.
Q.Can I match existing stone on a home addition?
If the original stone is still available, yes. If not, we source the closest match and blend by varying placement so the eye doesn't pick up the seam.
