For more than 35 years, El Dorado Stone has been manufacturing and refining the art of creating stone veneer that's exceptionally beautiful, incredibly affordable, easy to install and, above all, The Most Believable Architectural Stone Veneer in the World.TM


What is the difference between manufactured stone veneer and natural stone veneer?

Natural stone veneer is a thinly cut "face" of natural stone while manufactured stone veneer is cast from molds of real stone. Natural stone veneers often have a smooth backing, which may require wall ties and footings and may not be classified as an adhered veneer. Manufactured stone, conversely, is manufactured with grooved channels on the back of the stone to make installation easier. Eldorado Stone does not require wall ties or footings and are classified as an adhered veneer.


What are the benefits of using a manufactured stone?

Manufactured stone is approximately 1/3 to 1/2 the cost of natural stone installed. Its light weight properties eliminate the need for wall ties or footings. Manufactured stone has a 2% (approximately) waste factor versus 10% or more for natural stone.


Where can I install Eldorado Stone?

Eldorado Stone can be applied to any structurally sound surface with the proper preparation. It fits nearly any building plan — large or small, interior or exterior, new residential or commercial projects, or on any remodel. For inspirational installations where you can rock visit the El Dorado website's walkthrough.


Can I install Eldorado Stone myself?

Competent installers, with experience installing stone and veneer products, find Eldorado Stone easy to install. In general, however, installation does require installation knowledge and a rudimentary understanding. You can download step-by-step Installation Procedures from their website for in-depth instructions.
