The service
Traditional stone veneer is a masonry job: wire lath, scratch coat, mortar, cure time, and a wall built heavy enough to carry it. Evolve Stone throws that process out. Each piece weighs roughly 2 lbs per square foot and is face-nailed with a finish nailer — the same way we hang siding.
It's a solid-core material with colour infused all the way through, so it cuts on site with a miter saw and the cut edge still looks like stone. Evolve Stone reports installs up to 10× faster than traditional veneer.

Two ways we use it
These are the two applications where Evolve Stone earns its keep — and they're built two different ways.
Why it holds up here
Most of what kills an exterior in this state is water, salt and wind. Evolve Stone is tested and certified against all three.
The material doesn't hold water against the structure — the failure mode that rots framing behind conventional veneer.
Unaffected by salt spray, tested to ASTM B117. That matters within a few miles of the Atlantic.
Tested to ASTM E330 for structural performance under wind load — a real consideration every hurricane season.
Colour is infused throughout the material rather than sprayed on a face, so Florida sun has far less to fade.
At about 2 lbs per square foot there's no footing, no grade beam, no stone ledge and no engineered tie-backs.
Available in fire-rated and non-rated material, with ICC-ES evaluation reports covering both.
Styles
Every style comes in the full colour range, and tones can be mixed across collections — so the wall ends up specific to your house rather than pulled off a shelf.
The most stately of the line, inspired by the historic Georgetown district in Washington, D.C. Stones vary in both height and length for a rich, hand-laid look.
Linear and uniform — a scaled-down monumental appearance with a classic feel. The fastest style to install, and the current fan favourite.
A blend of 2″ and 4″ tall stones in varying lengths. Textured faces with clean edges give a mixed-format pattern that reads bold and contemporary.
Sleek and contemporary, with varied stone lengths and depths. The shorter overall size makes it the right pick for smaller areas and tight details.
Large-format hand-cut look in bold 8″ blocks up to 20″ long. Strong, stately and full of texture — the most dramatic of the five.
Phantom Shadow, Morning Aspen, Kodiak Mine, Dune Point, Afternoon Vale and River Clay — mix and match across any collection.

Common questions
Our process
We walk the property, mark exactly where stone earns its keep, and set the scope — exterior, fireplace, or both.
One of the five styles, in a colour blend chosen against your existing siding, trim and paint so the whole elevation reads as one design.
Exteriors get a code-compliant weather barrier and Evolve Rainscreen. Interiors nail direct to sheathing. This is the step the warranty depends on.
Face-nailed and cut on site with woodworking tools. Corners mitered, tucked or pre-fabricated, and pitched sills set to drain water away from the wall.
We walk the finished wall with you line by line. The project closes when you say it's right — not before.
