- Doc and crew install stone veneer over the old painted and new bare block foundation. The new adhesives on the market make this project much easier than the old mortar methods. The stone veneer over concrete block looks amazing.

Do you have a link to the product you bought at Lowes? The stone veneer?
I agree w/you regarding the stone, it really makes the house pop, gives the finished appearance and is beautiful. Jeannette
Hey Doc, you vision for the farm house is outstanding. From how it looked when you purchased it to now is just remarkable. Good work!
Great job Doc, looks amazing. Always look forward to watching your videos. Bring on spring and yard work again
Well done. Thanks for your straight forward, no BS approach
WOW!!! The stone looks great with the house color! Good job, guys!!
The stone looks amazing-great job!
In the process of building a barndominium just west of Waco, Texas. It in limestone country, I found a limestone veneer and was looking for a better way to adhere. Looks like you answered my question. You earned a subscriber.
Looks great.I have been a mason for over 25 years.The key is use the right motor not the pre mixed motor were you add water but the kind you mix yourself with sand.Its all about the right sand to motor ratio.I have never had a issue.If there is more sand to motor ratio you can rake it out with your fingers after it's set up.But the way your doing it is fine.More than one way to skin a cat.Keep up the good work.
It DOES look amazing! Great decision. Nice job!
Looks amazing and I like your thinking on the double adhesive
Looks great! You could save yourself a lot of time by using a 2x4 on edge to lay your first layer of stone on.
I built a mailbox out of similar stone, it looked great and was so much fun!
Wow what a difference!
This video made me so happy. :) Great job!! It looks so sharp. Not to mention your remark that covering the foundations upped the price tag on the house. About to do the same thing myself to my little cottage in SC. Hoping to take this little money pit and make it a real lovely home. :) Cutting my own veneers from salvage brick and now using STICKY STONE!
Great job. Thanks Doc
I thought it looked great. Excellent choice of stone color!
The project looks great and thanks for the tips
Hey brother I’m a mason and I gotta say that’s a classy looking veneer. Cool way to apply it too I would’ve never thought of glue. Great job brother. I got some videos on stonework. Really nice job on that foundation!
Looks great Doc
Exactly how I would have approached glueing the stone on too!!! Having a contingency approach helps eliminate any problems down the road!!!!
Great compliment!
Looks great doc
Looks beautiful Doc. The earth tones look outstanding next to the red paint. Sounds like you didn't get your Buck 🦌 this year. Well maybe next year.
Beautiful job guys !! That house looks amazing. Subscribed .
I agree adhesives have come a long way. Look at most new cars now and you'll see the seams are glued instead of the long welding beads of yesteryear.
Looks amazing!
Doc , I've also have used Landscaping Adhesive with great results.
"I don't trust anything" - this is very good advise, I've tried new products like this in the past and have had serious problems. Best to wait and see if they're still around in 5-10 years. Also, that's extremely slow installation in comparison to a veneer mortar installation. Depending on the climate and area you live in, there are bonding/glue agents that go over etched paint and form a monolithic surface in a matter of an hour or two and are incredibly strong. We've been installing stone this way for over 30 years and have never had a project fail. In fact a home we installed stone veneer on 12 years ago, the home owner wanted to change the stone to a modern look. It was an absolute nightmare getting the old stone off.
Could you please give of the color and manufacture of this stone, it is beautiful.
Looks great 👍
Beautiful work 😊
You got to paint your storage shed the same color as the house, when you have time. That red looks good. Great choice of color.
Have you ever tried polymer modified mortar? It’s really good stuff. We had to take off stone after stuck it would literally take of the cement board with it. I’ve laid it on CMU, and wire lath also but never had to take any off.
Thanks Doc. Good info.
Great job!!
Looks Awesome!!!
ARDEX MORTAR is really good stuff.👍🏻🇺🇸
That stone looks great with that house paint color! Would love to know how that adhesive holds up a few years down the road. We're starting a build this month and looking at saving $$$ where ever we can but don't want to use products that need replacing in a short time span.
It's important if you use mortar use the right stuff, I generally use spec mix with a good ratio of adhesive added for two reasons, first is for strength of bond and secondary it gives the mudd some flexibility and waterproofing properties, I do a test each time I'm laying where I install a stone 2 inch by 2 inch take lunch and try to remove it when I get back, even after an hour or so it takes a hammer to remove it and it's bond strength is impressive.
When done I think you’re going to forget about the beach house… Great work
I’ve seen Rosetta Stone used a lot as well.
sold. im building a concrete house with rocks embeded and some of them didnt bond well in the pour. i think i will try this out thanks for the video.
You also need ear plugs. The red in the brick really brings this together
Nice video and very informative. Would sandblasting the old foundation be an alternative and faster ? Thanks again
That looks Beautiful 👏. Our home is painted concrete block and i qould love to do a stone or beixk finish like this on the whole exterior. Any recommendations? Thank you for sharing 👍. Stay safe healthy and happy ✝️ 🇺🇸
looks Great!
What kind/ brand of stone veneer did you use
Its never a good idea to cover the vents, but I agree it looks great.
Should have put some sills in tho still looks nice
Thank you!
Can this adhesive be used on stucco?
Sticky stone is the best expensive but worth it you actually skip two steps wiring it and scratch coat
impressive! my foundation is cement block with cement veneer. will the 'sticky stone' stick to the veneer?
Can we use this method on an inside old red brick fireplace? Thank you
I wish they made that stuff in a small tube. I could use some to repair my concrete pavers and planters.
How much would something like this cost looks amazing I have blocks foundation
Yeah, for some reason those drip edges are always beat to heck!
Can one use Sticky Stone on hardiplanking around a modular house?
Is that crawl space behind that block foundation wall? I hope so
For inside installation can i use the polymer modified mortar ( like the tile cement) ? Thank you.
🤩 Nice 👍
What was the stone brand ?
Look way better, what about a sealer?
How’s the longevity of this adhesive?
That's what I'd like to know.
Nice!!!
Stone from Lowes, brand name?
I learned a few things, so thanks, but I'm still going to pay someone to do my house. I have no experience with stone, and I just don't want to work that hard! An experienced crew can probably do it in 1/4th the time it would take me.
Please answer the people's questions? What brand of veneer is that? Do you still recommend not over other brands?
Curious how well the adhesive holds up. Would be very easy to repair I suppose. Time will tell
How do you think this product would work on plywood
15:38 Please give the exact name and a source for the instant tack/insta-tac (or whatever) product, the one that sets in 5 seconds for interior use. Thanks!
What cut off wheel did you use?
Nice. Where you get the stone from?
He said Lowe’s
Asthetics definitely helps to sell.
We have used this stone, falls apart when you cut it also
Well first off this is a thin veneer stone, not conventional stone.
Wether adhesive applied veneer stone will last as well as traditional stone layed in mortar will take time to tell.
I dont personally think that the lick and stick method will make it.
As for the moisture getting behind it, isnt that why you installed the flashing under the siding?
Mind you now i agree that the ( fake ) stone we see so much of today looks very nice.
But like so many other things today we will just have to wait a few decades to find out how it holds up.
There is a reason that metal lath is on back of stone ........its for mortar adhesion!!! Use the right mortar and it's not an adhesive problem.
We used mesh and mortar
Are you gonna rent it?
it’s crazy what they charge for it.
What's the cost
Can’t beat some type s mortar
Yup.dry pack.
WHO TOOK THE BLAE GAURD OFF THAT ANGLE GRINDER!
LOL!
So, over time water will get in between the stones, then when it freezes, it will pop off. I'm not a fan of mortarless stone.
Actually the opposite is true. No water can be retained when doing this method.
next time lace the corners
Laticrete platinum 254 or 255 works faster and is waterproof.
You haven't laid any of those break yet have you please tell me you're not
The corners reveal that it’s fake stone
First
Looks great 👍
