If you want the look of stone siding without the costly maintenance, consider purchasing a brick or stone veneer. It will not need the mortar replacement that actual brick or stone siding requires. It also costs less upfront that does the real deal. Real brick or stone siding must rest on a foundation while the veneer adheres to the house with mortar or mastic. The veneer is also nearly identical in appearance to real brick or stone, since it is made from the same materials.
