Stone veneer wall decoration is not only the cold material. It's been used in home design since ancient times and will never go out of style or look old and dated. Manufactured stone really does supply all the beauty of natural stone without the cost, weight and installation problems. So it's definitely the best replacement if you want the texture of natural stone, but bothered by its complicated installation procedure.

Water absorption of cultured stone is higher than natural stone, so it will transfer the moisture through to the wall of the structure causing many of the same issues seen with improperly installed stucco. Being a porous product, manufactured stone is subjected to ice wedging and freeze thaw problems. What’s more, its specific weight is 1/3-1/4 of natural stone, not need extra support of wall footing.
