You don’t want your new exterior to look like a cheap imitation. Our manufactured stone veneer uses deep molds from real stone to capture authentic texture and shadow.
Stone veneer also protects your Metro Vancouver home from moisture damage. It acts as a durable rain-screen, shielding your siding from damp weather while providing insulation value.

Beautiful stone without the weight
Stone’s natural look adds character to any Metro Vancouver home. A full masonry wall costs too much and takes too long for most exterior upgrades. Our lightweight Stone Veneer gives you that rich texture without the high price tag and complicated installation.
We install veneer that handles West Coast rain and wind. Your home gets the curb appeal you want, and the work fits your timeline and budget.
We bring the same stone veneer work to homes in Chartwell. Many residents want a stone exterior but worry about local permits before they start.
Our team knows how Chartwell’s approval process works and walks you through it. You deal with less paperwork and get to enjoy your home’s new stone look sooner.
Stone veneer installation
Manufactured stone veneer is made from portland cement, lightweight aggregates, and mineral pigments. This mixture looks like natural stone but is much lighter. The installation starts with a weather-resistant barrier placed over the sheathing. Then, corrosion-resistant metal lath is attached to the studs. A scratch coat of polymer-modified mortar is spread over the lath and allowed to cure. This creates a strong base.
Next, individual stones or panels are set into fresh mortar and pressed down to ensure they make full contact. The joints between the stones are shaped to a consistent width, usually half an inch. This helps water drain away and keeps a neat look. Some systems use interlocking panels that speed up installation while still looking like hand-laid stone.
Stone veneer acts as a drained cladding system. There is a clear air gap behind the veneer. This gap allows moisture that gets behind the stone to drain down and escape through weep screeds at the bottom. Flashing is placed at the bottom of the wall, above windows and doors, and at any horizontal breaks to direct water out. This protects the sheathing and framing.
The metal lath must be attached through the sheathing into the wall studs with corrosion-resistant fasteners. These fasteners are spaced to support the weight of the veneer without sagging. This setup transfers the weight of the stone to the building’s frame. Proper detailing at the foundation line creates a capillary break, stopping ground moisture from rising behind the veneer.
Permit and noise regulations
In Burnaby, you need a building permit for stone veneer cladding. The city may ask for an engineering report at the building inspector’s discretion before starting exterior cladding work.
Burnaby’s noise bylaw limits construction noise to weekdays from 7 am to 8 pm and Saturdays from 9 am to 8 pm. There is no noisy work allowed on Sundays or statutory holidays. Stone veneer installation that makes noise must follow these hours unless an exception is approved.
In Surrey, construction noise for stone veneer installation is allowed from 7:00 am to 10:00 pm Monday through Saturday. No construction for profit or gain is allowed on Sunday. Plan noisy work within these hours or get written approval for extended hours.
One example of the work this team can handle is a local school with old exterior cladding that was trapping moisture and starting to break down. This posed a risk of further damage to the buildings. To fix this, we installed stone veneer on several buildings in phases. We planned each step around the school’s daily schedule so classes could continue without interruption. The result is a weatherproof and attractive campus that no longer needs constant repairs, giving staff confidence that the exterior will last.
Serving Metro Vancouver
Paragon Exteriors is located at Suite 408 – 55 Water Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6B 1A1, Canada. This office is where we start our work to serve the entire Metro Vancouver area for stone veneer installations. Our teams leave from this central location to deliver stone veneer to your home.
We install lightweight manufactured stone veneer that looks like real stone but is easier to handle and less expensive. It also acts as a strong barrier to keep moisture away from your home. Our installation process uses portland cement, lightweight materials, and mineral colors. This is done over a weather-resistant layer, metal lath, and a special mortar base. The cost for installing manufactured stone veneer usually ranges from CAD 20 to CAD 35. We assist with local permit needs and follow noise rules, like Burnaby’s limits of 7 am to 8 pm on weekdays and 9 am to 8 pm on Saturdays. Our team works throughout the Metro Vancouver area.
