With the quality of workmanship dropping like a bomb, maybe you should consider a stone veneer that has no mortar.
Do you follow trends in design, building, clothes and so forth? You probably realize that the motive force behind these changing trends is to pry hard-earned money from your wallet or savings account.
Are you old enough to remember when pink and gray ceramic tile was the rage? How about polka-dot patterned shirts with wide collars and bell-bottom jeans? I know, I’m dating myself!
But what about a trend that started out within the past decade and appears to still be gaining in popularity? I’m talking about mortarless stone veneer. You may think this is a new technology, but it’s not. Not by a long shot. The Egyptians used mortarless masonry on a huge scale in Giza, home of the great pyramids and bedsheets. The giant pyramids had a smooth veneer of giant slabs of stone fitted with absolutely no mortar.
The Peruvian Indians did the same thing thousands of years ago at Machu Picchu, high up in the Andes Mountains. Moreover, they did this with no power tools, diamond wet saws or dry-cut abrasive blades attached to a hand-held saw.
These two civilizations were not alone. There are plenty of examples of stone walls, buildings and arches built without mortar. Instead, the master stonemasons took the time to fit the stones together much like the pieces of a high-quality jigsaw puzzle. The good news is you can purchase stone veneer for your home and follow in the footsteps of the master builders of old!
