Serving Conway, AR and surrounding areas. (501) 273-0789
Give your Conway home a striking stone finish without the cost of full masonry. We handle surface prep, permits, and installation built for Arkansas climate conditions.
Stone veneer installation in Conway covers an existing wall with a thin layer of real or manufactured stone, transforming the exterior or a fireplace surround without the weight and cost of solid masonry, and most residential projects take two to five days on-site.
Unlike full-thickness stone construction, veneer panels are typically about an inch thick and bond directly to a prepared wall surface. That means you can add the look of fieldstone or stacked slate to a plain 1980s brick-veneer exterior or a builder-grade drywall accent wall without tearing anything out. If your project also involves an outdoor living space, our concrete block walls service pairs well for structural borders or seat walls that complement stone veneer finishes.
The key is what happens before the first stone goes up. A moisture barrier, drainage layer, and metal mesh are installed over the substrate first. Skip that prep work and the veneer will fail within a few years, especially in Conway where summer humidity and heavy spring rain seasons put constant moisture pressure on exterior walls.
Conway has grown quickly over the past two decades, and newer subdivisions have raised the bar for curb appeal. If your home was built in the 1980s or 1990s and still has its original plain siding or stucco, stone veneer on the entry or garage wall is one of the most cost-effective ways to modernize its look without a full renovation.
That white staining - called efflorescence - is mineral salt left behind as water moves through the masonry. In Conway's humid climate, it is a common warning that moisture management on the wall needs attention. Addressing it before adding new veneer is essential, or the same problem will reappear behind the stone within a few seasons.
Visible cracks, gaps, or sections of siding that have separated from the wall signal that the substrate underneath may need repair. Stone veneer installation is a good opportunity to address those issues and give the wall a durable, attractive finish at the same time - rather than patching piece by piece.
Many Conway homes from the 1980s and 1990s have plain brick fireplaces or drywall accent walls that were never finished the way the homeowner intended. Stone veneer transforms that space without demolishing the existing structure, and interior work can be scheduled any time of year regardless of temperature.
We install both natural thin stone veneer and manufactured stone veneer on exterior walls, fireplace surrounds, interior accent walls, and outdoor features. Every project starts with a wall assessment - checking for moisture damage, cracks, and substrate integrity before we quote or commit to a schedule. Corners and edges are hand-cut for a tight, clean finish rather than caulked over. We also handle the building permit through the City of Conway so you never have to navigate that process yourself. For homeowners building a cohesive outdoor living area, we coordinate with our stone masonry team for columns, pillars, and structural features that share the same material palette.
After installation, mortar joints are fully filled and finished - no gaps or voids that let water in. We clean the stone face and walk the finished surface with you before we pack up. If a city inspection is required, we coordinate that visit and ensure the work passes before the project is officially closed. Our work is designed to hold up through Arkansas summers, heavy spring rains, and the seasonal freeze-thaw cycles that stress any exterior finish.
Best for homeowners who want to transform a plain or aging exterior wall with a natural stone finish that dramatically improves street presence.
Ideal for updating a dated brick fireplace or finishing a drywall surround with a natural or manufactured stone finish that anchors the room.
Suited for feature walls in living rooms, entryways, or home offices where homeowners want a textured, stone look without full structural masonry.
For columns, outdoor kitchen facades, seat walls, or entry pillars where a finished stone surface ties the outdoor space together.
Conway homes built between the 1970s and 1990s make up a large share of the local housing stock, and many of those exteriors were never designed with curb appeal as a priority. As newer subdivisions on the north and west sides of town have raised the standard for exterior finishes, plain siding or stucco from a generation ago stands out - and not in a good way. Stone veneer is one of the few exterior upgrades that changes a home's visual character without requiring demolition or major structural work. The challenge in Conway is that the local climate demands more from an installer. Faulkner County's clay-heavy soil shifts with every wet spring and dry summer, and walls on older homes sometimes show the effects. Any cracks or substrate movement need to be addressed before veneer goes on - otherwise the same stress that cracked the wall will crack the stone within a few seasons.
Homeowners in Maumelle and Little Rock face the same moisture and soil conditions as Conway, and we apply the same drainage and prep standards on every job across our service area. If your subdivision has an HOA with material guidelines, we review those before finalizing a design so there are no surprises once the project is underway.
We reply within one business day. A few quick questions - where the stone is going, roughly how large the area is, and whether you have a style in mind - helps us prepare for the site visit. A photo from a home improvement website gives us a useful starting point.
We visit your home to inspect the wall in person, check for moisture issues and substrate integrity, and measure accurately. This visit usually takes 30 to 60 minutes. You receive a written estimate before any commitment, and your wall gets a real look - not a phone-call guess.
For most exterior projects in Conway, we pull a building permit through the City of Conway Building Department before work begins. Permit processing typically takes a few days to a couple of weeks. We handle the application - you should never have to navigate the permit office yourself.
We prep the wall, install the moisture barrier and metal mesh, then set stone from the bottom up. Mortar joints are filled and finished before we clean the stone face. We walk the completed surface with you, and if a city inspection is required, we coordinate that visit before the project is officially closed.
Free written estimate. We pull the permit. No obligation to book.
(501) 273-0789We inspect the substrate in person before pricing any project. That means we catch moisture damage, existing cracks, and signs of wall movement before the veneer goes up - not after. It protects your investment and prevents callbacks.
Every exterior project that requires a permit from the City of Conway Building Department is handled by us. You never navigate the permit office or wait on paperwork. The inspection is scheduled and coordinated before we close out the job.
Conway's high humidity and 50-plus inches of annual rainfall make moisture management the most important part of any exterior stone project. We install drainage layers and sealed edges on every exterior job so water has a path out, not a path into your wall. The Masonry Veneer Manufacturers Association guidelines back this approach.
Sloppy corners are the clearest sign of rushed work. We hand-cut each corner piece so seams are tight and the pattern flows naturally around every edge. That level of detail is visible every day from the street and in photographs when you sell.
These are the things that separate stone veneer that still looks good in ten years from stone veneer that starts failing in three. When you hire us, you get a contractor who treats the prep work as seriously as the stone itself.
