Metal lath is typically required when installing manufactured stone veneer over wood-framed walls or other surfaces that do not provide a suitable masonry bond. It creates a reinforced base for mortar attachment and helps prevent cracking, shifting, and installation failures. Metal lath is generally not required when installing stone veneer directly over properly prepared concrete, masonry, or other approved solid surfaces.

Manufactured stone veneer is not colored all the way through. The visible surface is colored using durable iron oxide pigments during manufacturing, while the interior remains a natural cement-based core, typically gray or tan. This industry-standard process creates realistic color variation, improves production efficiency, and keeps costs affordable. When cut during installation, professional techniques such as strategic placement and mortar coverage conceal exposed edges for a seamless appearance.

Learn how manufactured stone veneer gets its realistic color, why the interior differs from the surface, and how to hide cut edges for a natural finish.
