Should I Install Cultured Stone in Fleming Island or Natural Stone Veneer?
When judging from afar they look identical. Cultured stone is a man-made product that is designed to look like natural stone. Cultured stone is typically made of concrete and then pressed into "stone-shaped" molds. Natural stone veneer is quarried from the earth. Larger pieces are sliced to create thin veneers that Fleming Island masons install on siding and fireplaces. The major difference in function and appearance between the two is that many of the cultured stones are identical in color and/or shape so at a close inspection it is noticeable that they are impostors.
Natural stone tends to be more durable because it is also less porous than manufactured stone. It can handle a beating from a pressure washer more readily than cultured stone. The cultured veneer installed in Fleming Island tends to more easily adhere to a variety of surfaces that natural stone does not, such as existing masonry or wood frames. Interestingly, the price difference is not as big as one may assume. Although natural stone is more expensive to purchase and to install, cultured stone is more difficult to maintain and is less durable. In the end, it comes down to personal preference. If you're trying to decide between installing natural thin stone veneer siding in Fleming Island or cultured veneer, call the professionals at (904) 604-6640 for more information.

★★★★★ - "My husband and I just got a concrete slab poured for a large garage/cabana and we could not be more pleased with John, the owner of 2 Men Concrete, and his crew! He and his crew have decades of experience and it was clear from our first conversation to the final walkthrough that John’s first priority is making sure the job is done right. We had a complex set of requirements before the pour and he not only worked the entire project around our limitations but was present on the job every day to make sure every phase was done right.
John communicated with us throughout the entire project, was accessible whenever we needed him and he and his crew worked very effectively through some very challenging conditions with confidence.
We loved his work so much that we hired him to install pavers around our property.
Great job, John, and THANK YOU from John and Sandra in Mandarin!!"John Cortes & Sandra Martinez in Jacksonville, FL
