Re: Jim\'s new projects

I have a completely different take here....it is a terrible job! You need much more practice. I have just the right place for you to try again .... and a 425 to use so that you will not even have to put more hours on your own.

Re: Jim\'s new projects

The company is called Quality Stone and Veneer. Tdid the front of my house and although going back to them after 14 years, I ended up having to ask them to make a custome blend for me to get a match. The stone is called Ironstone Rubble, like a PA rubble. They cast the stone right here and are only 20 minutes from my house, so that helps to reduce the cost.

Here's a link to their color chart and sight.

Re: Jim\'s new projects

Here's a picture of the finished front. The morter is a little lighter than I would want, but will darken fairly soon in this environment as the front of my house did.

Re: Jim\'s new projects

Here's a shot from the side. Two things I would have done differently.

1. Used a tan color siding.
2. Used a tiny bit darker morter, (but this will darken over time)
