Full details

The Lite Stone Falling Leaves Slate Veneer is an ideal solution for DIY enthusiasts, interior designers, and contractors looking to achieve an authentic stone aesthetic without the heavy weight of traditional masonry. This product features a genuine 100% natural stone face backed by a flexible fiberglass and resin composite, providing a durable, lightweight, and versatile cladding option for both indoor and outdoor surfaces.

FAQs

Can I use this for flooring?

Yes, this material is suitable for flooring, provided it is installed over a stable, flat subfloor with the appropriate adhesive.

Do I need special tools to cut the veneer?

No, you can cut the sheets using standard shears, a jigsaw, or a circular saw with a diamond blade for cleaner edges.

Is the Falling Leaves finish always the same?

No, because it uses natural stone, every sheet will have variations in the red, yellow, brown, and beige veining.

Can I install this in a shower?

Yes, it is suitable for showers, but you must ensure all joints are waterproofed and the surface is properly sealed.

How do I clean the veneer?

Use a soft damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing pads that could damage the natural stone finish.

Can this be installed over existing tile?

Yes, as long as the existing tiles are stable, clean, and level, you can bond the veneer directly to them.

Troubleshooting

Adhesive not sticking properly

Ensure the substrate is free of dust and debris, and confirm that your adhesive is compatible with both the fiberglass backing and your specific wall material.

Visible seams between sheets

Use a color-matched grout or a fine-grit sanding block to lightly blend the edges, or ensure a tighter fit during the initial installation phase.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly lighter than traditional stone slabs
  • Flexible material allows for installation on curved surfaces
  • Suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications
  • Easy to cut and fit for custom project dimensions
  • High-quality natural finish provides a premium look

Cons

  • Color and pattern variation between sheets is expected due to natural materials
  • Requires proper surface preparation for long-term adhesion
  • Cutting may require specialized tools for clean edges
  • Sealant application is recommended for high-moisture areas like showers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your surface is clean, dry, and level. You will typically need a high-strength construction adhesive compatible with fiberglass and stone. The thin profile allows you to cut the sheets using standard woodworking tools or metal shears. For long-term care, wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleaners. If installed in high-traffic or high-moisture areas, apply a stone-specific penetrating sealer to protect the natural surface from staining and water penetration.
