Various Masonry Claddings
The first home in this series utilized a splitface ashlar granite veneer installed on the home as well as on landscaping and planting walls. The second home utilized a similar ashlar granite veneer in much the same application as the first but instead using a dark charcoal mortar to boost contrast. The third home required a different look for the masonry and designs called for a thin-brick veneer.
Progress Update
The masonry scope on the fourth home on this project calls for a mixture of Hardy Island stone veneer and Manufactured Thin Brick. In total, the home required approx 1,500 SF ( 9,200 thin brick) of Manufactured Thin Brick and 1,900 SF of Hardy Island Stone Veneer.
Masonry Rainscreen Systems
The veneer, whether it is brick or stone, is installed over a wood slat rainscreen system. This creates the proper air space allowing the brick cavity to breath and any water to drain. The veneer is finished off with precast watertable sills and precast caps at all stairways giving the proper contrast between the veneers and precast and giving it the old school masonry feel on a modern home.
