Buechel Building Stone Veneers Collections

Building Stone Veneers. Full and Thin Veneer Stone. Just a couple of common terms in the architectural stone masonry and construction industry that get thrown around frequently but can mean completely different things depending on who’s saying them. So what’s the real deal?

Maybe we need to start with the question: what is stone veneer? The simplest definition might be that it’s a layer of stone used as facing material in the built environment. Your next question might be: how thick is stone veneer? And with all of the fake manufactured stone veneers and man-made faux stone options being cast by the tens of millions (of square feet annually), perhaps the most important question should be: is stone veneer real stone? Buechel Stone only provides 100% real natural stone veneer quarried from the earth, and we offer them in both full and thin veneer stone thicknesses.

When it comes to selecting and creating the perfect blends of architectural stone veneers, you’ve come to the right place. Express your signature style using a traditional, gold standard ~4″ bed depth (a.k.a. full veneer stone with footings and wall ties) and/or its durable, lightweight counterpart of natural thin veneer stone (100% real having ~3/4″ to 1-1/4″ bed depth with no footings required). No other building material offers the unique textures, natural colors, and exceptional visual appeal found in real architectural stone veneer. When it comes to beauty, strength, and longevity, our natural stone veneer is in a class of its own. (More details on thin and full veneer wall dwgs, spec & tech data, and installation details can be found per product [start exploring our collections below] or on the resources page of this site.)

An exceptional selection of natural thin and full bed building stone veneers is just the beginning. Nothing ties your work of art together better than complementary natural landscape stone and architectural cut stone details with color tones to match within each of the following stylistic building stone veneer masonry pattern lines: Ashlar, Castle Rock, Dimensional, Fieldledge, Ledgestone, Mosaic, Tailored Fieldledge, and Tailored Ledgestone. Starting with the best in architectural and specification stone resources to installation accessories as your project is being built, if you want quality and a company that’ll be there from concept to completion, then we’re your ONLY REAL CHOICE IN STONE.
