Brick Veneer vs. Stone Veneer: What’s the Difference?
From a physical perspective, brick-and-stone veneers will look like a half brick or stone wall, though there are distinctions. Thin slices of real brick make up the brick veneer, or they may be molded products designed to provide a clean, uniform look. Both are significantly lighter than full brick, and the installation is quick and easy.
Although both stone and brick veneers feature real stone, stone veneers will look like natural stone and can have unlimited textures, colors, and shapes. The stone veneer is the best option for homeowners who want a rustic or custom look.
Brick veneer would be the least expensive option when comparing price differences. Stone veneers can be more costly if you compare the cost of two different materials and use two different building materials, since stone veneers are used in the more expensive designs if that is what you’re after.
Nonetheless, both options will last for many years, and each option is suitable for any masonry completed project if the work was done with a professional company like Lynnwood Masonry.
Are you still unsure which brick or stone veneer is better for your project? One of our other complete masonry services is to offer recommendations that are suited to you based on your style, budget, and home layout in place of working with a full veneer.

Masonry Maintenance & Lifespan
Brick and stone veneers are built to last, especially if handled by a professional. With moderate care, it will continue to look good for many years. Mostly, masonry maintenance is simple: occasionally wash it with water and some mild soap to remove dirt or deposits.
A sealer may be recommended, but only in the case of exposed exterior veneers exposed to the elements. Moreover, veneers are less vulnerable to moisture and cracking than full-thickness masonry construction, providing a relatively long-term solution.
And if something is damaged, masonry repair is usually not expensive and does not take a long time. We also have restoration services to keep your locally built work looking good from one year to the next.

Brick and stone are very durable and can handle Washington’s wet weather well when installed and sealed properly. We use quality materials and weather-resistant techniques to prevent water damage, cracking, or erosion over time. Regular maintenance, like sealing and checking mortar joints, helps keep your masonry looking great for years.
Real stone is heavier and made from solid natural rock, while stone veneer is a thinner, lighter material designed to look like real stone. Veneer is easier to install, costs less, and still gives you a beautiful, long-lasting finish. For most Washington homes, stone veneer is a great choice for walls, fireplaces, and exteriors, especially if you want the look of stone without the extra weight and cost.
