Stone Veneer Installation in Maple Ridge: what to know
Stone veneer on Maple Ridge homes transforms dated cladding with a material that suits the city's natural setting. We install on facades, lower-facade accents, and feature walls across the city.
Stone veneer installation puts a real stone face on your home's exterior, an accent wall, a column, or a fireplace, without the cost and weight of full solid stone. We install both natural quarried veneer and high-quality manufactured stone, over a proper moisture barrier and lath so it stays put and stays dry. Done right, veneer transforms the look of a house and adds real value. Done wrong, it traps water. We do it right, with the drainage detail behind the stone that most installers skip.

When Maple Ridge homeowners call us for stone veneer installation
You want to update a dated exterior
Stone veneer over the lower facade or entry instantly modernizes a tired-looking home.
A feature wall or fireplace refresh
An interior stone fireplace or accent wall is one of the highest-impact upgrades for the cost.
New build or addition
We work with builders and homeowners to add stone where it makes the biggest visual difference.
Failing existing veneer
If old veneer is cracking, bulging, or letting in water, it was likely installed without a drainage plane. We remove and redo it properly.
Maple Ridge properties: what we see
Maple Ridge has a character shaped by its position at the edge of the Metro Vancouver urban area — larger lots, some rural acreages, and a historic downtown core along 224th Street with original brick from the early 1900s. Silver Valley and Albion are the newer subdivisions on sloped terrain where retaining walls and outdoor living features are common. Thornhill and Ruskin have a more rural flavour with larger properties. The mix of heritage masonry in the historic core, slope-driven retaining structures in the newer subdivisions, and large-lot outdoor features makes Maple Ridge an interesting masonry market.
We work throughout Maple Ridge — including Historic Downtown, Albion, Silver Valley, Thornhill, Ruskin — and we know how the terrain, housing stock, and climate vary across the city. Every quote reflects what we actually see on site.
How we do stone veneer installation in Maple Ridge
- 1
Pick the stone
We bring options and help you choose based on your home, the light, and your budget. Natural and manufactured both have their place.
- 2
Prep the wall
We install the moisture barrier, drainage detail, and metal lath. This hidden layer is what keeps the wall dry for decades.
- 3
Set the stone
Stones are laid out for balanced colour and size, then set in mortar with consistent, clean joints.
- 4
Detail the edges
Corners, columns, and openings get finished cleanly so the install looks intentional, not patched together.
- 5
Finish and seal
We point the joints, clean the face, seal where needed, and clear the site.
Why choose Burnaby Masonry for stone veneer installation in Maple Ridge
Drainage done right
The number one veneer failure is trapped water. We build the drainage plane behind the stone that protects your wall.
An eye for layout
Good veneer is about how the stones are chosen and placed. We balance colour and size so it reads as real stone, not a kit.
Natural and manufactured
We install both and give you honest pros and cons so you pick what's right for the wall and the wallet.
Clean edges and corners
The details around windows, corners, and columns are where cheap installs fall apart. That's where we focus.
