The terrace is a sometimes underestimated architectural feature. Whether covered, natural, angled or in the form of a balcony, it offers you the comfort of indoor-outdoor living, so you can enjoy fine days and balmy summer evenings. It’s a living space in its own right, an extra room in the house, and can be transformed into an idyllic place for entertaining friends and family.

When we think terrace, we often think floor: wood, washed concrete, waxed concrete, natural or reconstituted stone, etc. Walls are not to be excluded! When well matched, stone walls can set off a terrace floor and transform its atmosphere.

Discover our tips for creating a space that reflects your personality.

Looking for nature and softness?

Choose our stone-to-stone cladding collections. In a limestone and rubble stone style, CAUSSE and MANOIR are the natural choice. They’ll bring a touch of country chic to your terrace and blend easily with rendering, wood and metal. Vegetal notes will enhance the stone and accentuate the natural look of your terrace. Soft colors in satin and matte paints, applied to woodwork or decorative elements, finish the look perfectly and give it a more contemporary feel.

These stones, very popular with our customers, are easy to install. These ranges are among our most popular DIY products.

Natural-tone Causse stone warms and softens the industrial ambience of this architect-designed patio.

Need to stand out from the crowd?

The TAHOE collection in its rocaille hue is made for you. With its unfinished look, this cladding stone will elegantly dress your walls and lend a contemporary yet warm ambience to your terrace.
With its slab format and specific layout, the TAHOE range can be laid with or without joints, depending on the conditions. The different shapes of the cladding slabs enable walls to be clad to perfection without distinction of joint and without creating horizontal and vertical lines. Walls are clad in a natural, unadorned look.
Prefer OLYMPE cladding in a clay tone? Dare to use minimalism and smooth materials such as glass and metal to create a harmonious mix of textures. To create a striking contrast, combine rockwork with light, fine-grained plaster.

YOSEMITE gives walls a lively relief and a modern, elegant style, thanks to its ribbed texture and deep anthracite hue. The Z-shaped slabs, composed of schist-like bars with a natural slate look, are skilfully combined for easy installation and a resolutely graphic finish.
Enhance your terrace with colorful hints and touches of vegetation to reinforce the contemporary, graphic look while retaining purity and elegance.

For successful installation

If you’d like to use stone cladding on the exterior walls of your home, here’s some basic information.

First, you’ll need to check the appearance of your installation substrate. Make sure your wall is considered an acceptable substrate, otherwise you’ll need to make any necessary adjustments or modifications before bonding your siding.

Next, for optimum protection of your stonework, you’ll need to apply a water-repellent spray. This is a simple operation that should be repeated every 5 years or so.

Easy to install, stone cladding adds comfort and style to your exterior. It’s up to you!

For ideal results, we strongly recommend that you consult the technical data sheets available on our website and follow the recommendations.

When the warm summer days are a distant memory and the temperatures turn cooler, there's at least one reason to rejoice: you can enjoy evenings warming up by the fire, snuggled up next to a stone fireplace.

Traditional fireplaces, inserts, wood or pellet stoves and even bio-ethanol fireplaces have become veritable decorative features of the home. NÉOMINERAL® stone cladding offers an easy-to-implement aesthetic solution for showcasing these warm-hearted appliances.

Need advice on how to dress up a wood-burning stove?

Many customers seek advice from our teams before starting to install decorative siding. Although the installation of our siding is often considered a widespread and easy DIY (Do It Yourself) project, technical questions are common.

Technically speaking, ORSOL cladding can be safely installed behind a stove to protect the wall from excessive heat. In fact, our claddings are made from a technical material composed of sand, stone aggregates and natural pigments, making them non-flammable.

However, we strongly recommend compliance with current safety standards. It’s best to place fire-retardant treated plasterboard (often pink in color) behind a stove or other heating device. It’s also advisable to maintain a distance of around 40 cm between the heat source and the facing.

Fireplace cladding: combining aesthetics and practicality

Whether purely decorative or functional, using stone or brick cladding to cover a fireplace or wood-burning stove offers a solution with many advantages.

In the first instance, the possibility of choosing from a variety of wall coverings enables you to find the one that will harmonize perfectly with your interior decor. By combining the practical with the pleasurable, these cladding jobs offer the opportunity to create practical storage spaces, suitable for storing logs, for example.

Another significant advantage comes into play when you own a stove, as cladding is an ideal solution for aesthetically protecting the wall. This approach is equally applicable to bioethanol fireplaces, fuelled by an environmentally-friendly biofuel derived from the distillation and fermentation of sugar beet. These fireplaces are also particularly easy to maintain.
