What is Stone Cladding? 

Stone cladding is a construction technique where thin layers or natural stone panels or engineered stone are applied to the exterior or interior surfaces of a wall. It’s used to give a structure a high-end, aesthetic appearance, and can be used for both decorative and functional purposes.
 

So, let’s transform your walls with the natural beauty and durability of stone cladding. Australia offers a diverse range of stone wall cladding options to suit various styles and budgets. Here’s a breakdown of the most popular types:

 

1. Loose Stone Wall Cladding

Unmatched Natural Look: Loose stone wall cladding provides a rustic and authentic appearance, replicating the look of natural rock formations.

Versatile Installation: Installed in free form as there is NO pattern, allowing for customization.

Wide Range of Natural Stones: Available in different types of natural stone, including sandstone, limestone, granite, slate and travertine.
Requires Either Mortar Joints or Flush

Butting No Joints: Requires mortar for installation, adding to the cost and complexity of the project. Flush butting simply means that you must intricately trim every piece to fit. Strongly recommend using a stone mason for installation further adding to the cost.

Prices: Here in Australia for loose stone wall cladding range from $66m2 through to $99m2 inc GST.
 

2. Ledgestone Cladding Panels

Easy Installation: These pre-assembled panels offer a convenient and time-saving option. The NEW PANELS interlock horizontally and vertically, therefore hiding any panel straight lines that were once obvious.

Modern Aesthetic: Ledgestone stone cladding provides a RUSTIC natural look resembling loose stone cladding.

Wide Range of Colors and Textures: Available in various natural stones and finishes to suit different styles.

Requires NO Mortar: Ledgestone panels typically require NO mortar for installation, making them a GREAT choice for DIY’s

Price: Australian prices vary from $79m2 through to $99m2 inc GST
 

3. Lightweight Stackstone Veneer Panels

Cost-Effective: Lightweight stackstone veneer panels are a more affordable option compared to natural stone cladding.

Easy Installation: These panels are lightweight and can be installed over existing walls, making them a convenient choice.

Realistic Appearance: Modern manufacturing techniques create a realistic stone effect, even though they are not made from natural stone.

Limited Customization: Less flexibility in terms of design and installation compared to loose stone or ledgestone panels.

Prices: Australian prices for lightweight stackstone panels vary from $55m2 through to $79m2 inc GST

 

4. Crazy Paving for Walls

Unique Texture: Crazy paving adds a textured and visually interesting element to your walls.

Natural Variation: Each stone has a unique shape and size, creating a one-of-a-kind look. Generally we recommend buying even thickness stone, ideally 20mm thick.

Requires Mitring: Due to the irregular shapes of crazy paving stones, mitring is necessary to create clean corners and a finished appearance.

Limited Availability: Crazy paving wall cladding might be less readily available compared to other options. Available in Travertine, Sandstone, Marble

When choosing stone cladding, consider factors such as your budget, desired aesthetic, and installation preferences. For a more natural and rustic look, loose stone cladding or crazy paving might be ideal. If you prefer a modern and streamlined appearance, ledgestone panels or lightweight stackstone veneer panels could be better suited.

Remember to consult with a professional stonemason or contractor to ensure proper installation and achieve the best results for your stone cladding wall installation project. A stonemason will usually charge you between $200-$300m2 for installation on top of the Stone Cladding cost.
