Repairing Your Stone Veneer
When stone veneer starts to crack, the problem usually doesn’t stop at just one area. Moisture can get behind the cladding and seep into the sheathing. This turns a visible issue into a costly wall repair.
Paragon begins by removing loose stones and checking the drainage plane behind them. We rebuild the surface using the right lath, mortar, and flashing for each opening. The same stone veneer techniques for Vancouver homes are applied to every wall, ensuring a finish that sheds rain and keeps its look.
In Glenbrooke North, older homes often show their age on the front first. Cracked stone around entrance columns and porch bases is common when rain seeps into small gaps.
This constant exposure to rain and river air makes exterior cladding more challenging here. Small cracks can grow quickly once water gets behind the stone. Replacing damaged sections now helps keep the wall underneath dry through the next winter.
Stone Veneer Installation
In Glenbrooke North, we prepare the wall sheathing with a two-layer weather-resistant barrier. A dimpled drainage mat creates a break and a path for water to exit at the base. Metal lath is fastened to the studs, and a polymer-modified scratch coat keyed into the lath provides a solid base for the stone. This method keeps a strong bond even with the wet conditions in the area.
For natural stone veneers, we use a similar base but increase tie spacing to support the extra weight. We anchor it back to the structural framing through the sheathing. The stone can be manufactured veneer units made from local stone profiles or cut natural stone. Both types are set in a full bed of mortar, with joints shaped to shed water. Around windows, doors, and the soil line, we install custom bent metal flashing that directs water away from the wall. All openings are sealed with high-grade elastomeric sealant, and we leave small weep holes at the bottom of the veneer to let trapped moisture escape, which is important during the winter rains.
Stone veneer in Glenbrooke North must work as part of a rainscreen system. The dimpled drainage mat creates an air gap that allows the back of the veneer to dry out, breaking the suction that can hold moisture against the sheathing. This gap also equalizes pressure, reducing the force that drives rain through the cladding during strong winds in the Fraser Valley.
We connect the veneer back to the framing with corrosion-resistant fasteners spaced to resist local wind loads without blocking the drainage cavity. Where stone meets window frames or soffits, we install two-stage joint seals: a backer rod and sealant that allow movement while keeping water out. On older wood-framed homes common in this area, we often specify a fluid-applied air barrier over the sheathing, flashed into openings, before adding the drainage mat. This ensures the wall can handle both airborne moisture and bulk water behind the stone.
Stone Veneer Construction Noise Rules
For stone veneer installation in Glenbrooke North, the City of New Westminster’s Construction Noise Bylaw No. 6063, 1992 sets the hours when work can happen. Exterior work such as installing, altering, or removing stone veneer cladding—including cutting, hammering, or using masonry tools—can generally occur from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on weekdays and from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturdays. Professional contractors like Paragon Exteriors cannot create construction noise on Sundays or statutory holidays. However, homeowners can work on their own homes during limited hours on those days.
The City’s general noise bylaw links to these construction hours. This means that any noisy stone veneer work outside the allowed times can be seen as a noise violation unless a variance or exemption has been granted. Planning cutting and cladding work within the permitted hours helps keep the project compliant.
We recently worked on a school in Glenbrooke North that had problems with its stone veneer. The old veneer was letting moisture into the walls, which could cause more damage. We planned our work around their daily schedule. We removed the damaged sections and installed new stone veneer on several buildings. This fixed the moisture problem. Now, the campus is drier, safer, and looks more unified. The staff can focus on their work without worrying about the building’s condition, showing the trust the community has in us.
