Evolve Stone is a relative newcomer to the exterior siding market. The company’s first product became available in June 2020, and Evolve Stone siding went into distribution in February 2021. It’s been growing in popularity ever since—and you’ll soon discover why.
Evolve Stone is a revolutionary stone veneer siding material designed for exterior siding applications. Made from a proprietary material, these stone veneers offer distinct advantages not only over natural stone siding—but also over other types of faux stone siding products.
One of the things that sets this material apart is the fact that it holds color throughout. This makes it easy to work with as there is no need to worry about hiding cuts or fastener holes to prevent base colors from showing through. It’s also a mortar-free product, which reduces labor in installation and future maintenance concerns.

Before getting started with Evolve Stone stone veneer products, you’ll probably have questions about installation, durability, and costs. We’ll cover each of these topics next.
Timeless Beauty
Most faux stone products come close to the look and feel of real stone, but not quite—and that’s what sets Evolve Stone veneers apart. It looks exactly like the real thing, and because it’s not a sheet good but rather installed stone by stone, it creates a perfectly seamless look.
Evolve stone veneers are infused with color, which is another reason why these stone veneers look as realistic as natural stone. Having this color throughout stone veneer siding also means that you don’t have to use touchup paint to conceal cut surfaces. Plus, finish nails will disappear into the surface.
Easy Installation
Real stone is heavy—and it requires mortar, which not only makes installation a labor-intensive process, but also sets homeowners up for a lot of long-term maintenance since it will need to be repaired when it cracks. Conversely, Evolve Stone stone veneer siding is easier to install than conventional siding. Evolve Stone veneers are much smaller and easier to work with—plus they don’t require starter strips.
A DIY-friendly product, you can hang these veneers with finish nails: no mortar is needed! Plus, you won’t need to rely on heavy-duty scaffolding since this is a lightweight product. You also won’t need to reinforce the structure to support the extra weight. To install Evolve Stone siding, all you need to do is prepare exterior walls with a weather-resistant barrier, install an Evolve Stone rainscreen, and then nail each stone veneer piece into place.
Even among other faux stone veneer siding products, Evolve Stone stands out as a leader. Compared to competitors, you can install Evolve Stone up to 10 times faster.

Seamless Shipping
Most Evolve Stone orders ship via small package carriers, so you don't have to schedule an LTL truck delivery or need special offloading equipment—which is a common need for conventional siding.
Durability
Ease of installation doesn’t mean that you’ll be sacrificing durability. Evidenced by its 50 Year Limited Warranty, Evolve Stone is a distinctly durable product, engineered to withstand harsh weather conditions for a virtually maintenance-free siding option. It’s also UV stable and moisture impermeable, which ensures that it can stand up to everything the elements can throw at it.
Cost-Efficiency
Cost is another factor that sets Evolve Stone apart. Homeowners often expect to pay a premium price for premium materials like natural stone or high-end faux stone products. However, the Evolve Stone price is about the same as inexpensive vinyl—even less since it is so easy to install, which will reduce labor costs. On average, the materials to install Evolve Stone will cost between $0.50 and $1 per square foot, which is in line with vinyl siding prices.
