"I first met Jeff Moore of Capital Siding, Windows and Roofing in 2018. It was time to reroof my 110+ year-old house (that has more hips and angles than a fashion show) and I wanted to do it right. I took 5 bids (6 if you count the company that was a no-show) and ended up with a range of bids that varied by nearly $20,000. Capital came in near the midpoint of the bids but it wasn't the price that sold me - it was the care they put into their bid and the feeling I got from Jeff and, later, his son Danny. They included more detail than any of the other companies I considered and I spent quite a bit of time on the phone with Jeff over the course of a couple of weeks where he answered all of my questions and explained all of my options. Jeff struck me right from the start as an earnest, straight-up guy who was giving me his best offer. No posturing, no pressure, just a good offer and a good feeling. Undertaking a major project on my house, my biggest asset, was stressful. I was worried about everything. Is this a fair price? Is this the right company? Will the crew stay on schedule? Will they damage the property with their equipment? Do I have any idea what I am doing? Ultimately, you have to make a decision and for me, that's usually going with a gut feeling. My gut said Capital so I signed the contract. Once work got underway, Azael, Jeff's primary crew chief, was on site every day. He's a great guy, easy to talk to, always with a smile and a laugh. The crew did their work, cleaned up every day, and kept the materials organized. Couldn't ask for more. Jeff and Danny came out several times during the project and we spoke by phone regularly. Calls were usually returned the same day and always by the next day. Changes (like my decision to add gutter covers) were handled clearly and easily and there were no financial surprises at all. They did an excellent job. If I could do it again, would I choose Capital? Wellllll...yes. In fact, I did! In August of 2023, while I was out of town with my family, our house got walloped by the big hail storm that rolled through Minneapolis. By the time we got home a week later, work had already started on 4 houses on my block. My first call was to Capital and they came out a day later. My beautiful roof and old siding had taken major damage. Danny and one of the roofing crew walked every inch of my roof and took over 100 pictures. The damage was significant but the integrity of the roof was intact. Because of the severity of the storm, Jeff was booked until very late in the season so we decided to push it until the spring of 2024. That turned out to be a good decision as I spent a good portion of the winter arguing with my insurance company. Every time they sent an adjuster or someone to take pictures or get a materials sample, one of Jeff's team was present. I finally got things sorted out with insurance, spring arrived, and Oscar, Capital's other crew chief who is just as approachable and friendly and great as Azael, came out with his guys and got going. They did another beautiful job on the roof and the siding is just fantastic. They did tons of hand-bent aluminum work to mimic the architectural detail my insurance wouldn't cover. I think it looks better than it did originally. My wife and I are completely happy with the work and love with the way our house looks now. Total satisfaction with two excellent jobs six years apart is no fluke. Capital is as solid as they come and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Thanks again to Jeff, Danny, Mike, Azael, Oscar, and everyone at Capital. - Tim in Minneapolis"

Stone veneer isn’t a weekend DIY. Even lightweight faux panels are heavy and must be anchored, flashed, and sealed to keep water out. Missteps can lead to cracked stone, leaks, or injuries. A licensed siding contractor arrives with scaffolding, masonry tools, and the know-how to set each piece safely and neatly, giving you a long-lasting, professional finish.
Stone veneer durability is robust when expert installation and proper maintenance are employed. When installed with precision, regularly cleaned, and sealed as required, stone veneer maintains its integrity for 25 to 75 years. Inadequate installation, however, leads to water intrusion and structural issues that compromise its longevity. Consistent upkeep and adherence to quality installation standards ensure decades of reliable performance.
Covering the entire exterior of a home with stone veneer is feasible but comes with a significant cost increase. Full coverage escalates both material and labor expenses due to the additional square footage required. Many homeowners reduce costs by applying stone veneer selectively—such as around entries, foundations, or architectural accents—while still achieving an upscale appearance and enhancing overall curb appeal.
Installing stone veneer over brick or stucco is entirely possible when the underlying surface is stable and properly prepared. The substrate must be clean, dry, and free of any loose material to support a secure application. Additionally, any areas of flaking stucco or deteriorated mortar must be patched and allowed to cure fully before a professional applies the new veneer, ensuring lasting durability.
Stone veneer siding offers a substantial cost advantage compared to full-thickness natural stone. It costs 25% of the price of natural stone because it is manufactured from concrete and lightweight aggregates. This method delivers the genuine appearance of stone while featuring a thinner profile that simplifies shipping, accelerates installation, and consistently reduces material expenses.
For a 250 square foot exterior area, stone siding installation costs range from $9,800 to $18,000, while installing stone veneer costs between $5,000 and $6,000. This clear cost breakdown demonstrates the significant savings achieved with stone veneer, which uses a lighter construction method that minimizes both material and labor expenses. Homeowners benefit from these lower costs while still attaining the attractive look of natural stone.
