Control Your Materials Costs With GenStone
Some people may wonder why a simple, naturally occurring material like stone can be so expensive. After all, the earth is made of stone; it should be plentiful. But the process of blasting, excavating and hauling rock or stone is a decidedly intensive process, requiring the use of heavy equipment and machinery. This machinery also requires an inordinate amount of fuel to operate on a daily basis. Once the stone is transported and refined at a factory for architectural use, the costs of shipping to your local distributor or your job site are included in the retail price for the product.

- Additionally, the current demand for rock, brick and stone veneers is quite high due in large part to community covenants requiring a specific exterior appearance and style. Installing a cultured stone or rock wall, veneer or accents may force you to lay in structural reinforcements upon your building or residence, sending the "price tag" of curb appeal higher and higher with the costs of additional materials and labor.

- You won't need to worry about materials overages or shortages when you order the appropriate quantity of GenStone siding. Each GenStone artificial siding panel covers approximately 3.5 to 7 square feet, allowing you to calculate and purchase the number of panels you require for the project, which helps you budget for the size of your project accordingly. These standard sizes can be ordered in convenient full panel or smaller half panel sizes, eliminating excessive, expensive materials waste at the job site.
