Manufactured Stone used above a Stove Top

Manufactured stone’s popularity continues to soar!  …… With the growing popularity of Veneerstone, Contractors are using the products more and more in places you would not traditionally think of.

Manufactured stone has been used for exterior applications for decades, but we are seeing a growing trend of using Veneerstone throughout both home & commercial interiors. Traditionally used for fireplace surrounds, we now see the warmth and durability of stone & thin brick being added to bathrooms, kitchens, wine cellars, & accent walls throughout the interior.

Whether it’s a single wall, back-splash, or bar front, kitchens are a great area to use Veneerstone! Considered the “heart of the home” we can think of no room better suited for using our manufactured stone to bring the warmth of the outdoors in.

Veneerstone by Tejas Stone offers a broad selection of profiles that mimic the contemporary look of cast stone, or create the rustic feel of stone found in a European country home. These products are much easier to install and much more cost effective than natural stone. The thin veneer product has a thicknesses that averages just 3/4 of an inch to  1 and 1/2 inches, so its the perfect way to add the warmth, texture & feel of mother nature to a kitchen backsplash & still maintain your precious counter space!

The durability of Veneerstone is unmatched when it comes to a bar front wall. Family time is always treasured, but today’s busy families dine at the breakfast bars of kitchens 10 times more often than actually sitting down to the table! Imagine not having to worry about the scuff marks created on the sheetrock by Susie’s & Johnny’s feet as they swing their tennis shoes from the barstool!  Not only will you create a much more visually appealing surface, but the durability and value will pay huge dividends for years to come!

Interior Designers have known for a long time that an “accent wall” of color helps create a vibrant/contrasting look to home and commercial interiors. Many are now modifying that technique to use manufactured stone instead.

Perfectly replicating natural stone, Veneerstone is a very inexpensive way to add value, strength, and substance to an otherwise drab blank wall!
