When stone veneer fits a Manlius home
- A plain front on a 1970s houseThe median build year in the town is 1972. If your front is flat vinyl or board, a stone band under the windows adds depth without covering the house.
- A garage or entry that needs a baseA wide garage face looks heavy in siding. A stone skirt or two stone columns by the entry break it up.
- A walkout or foundation wall in viewA foundation wall that shows at the back of the house can be finished with veneer, if the wall behind it is dry.
- A new chimney chase on an additionA framed chase for a new fireplace or stove can take stone or brick facing. This is new work on a sound frame.
Quick answers
Questions about stone veneer in Manlius
Still unsure? Call (315) 640-3590 or send the short form.
Can I put stone on just the front of my Manlius house?
Yes. Owners can face just the garage, entry or a lower band and leave the rest in siding. Ask the contractor to price each face on its own.
Who checks a veneer job in Manlius?
The permit office for your address, the town or the Village of Manlius. Ask whether facing work needs a permit before you book.
Stone veneer in Manlius homes
The Town of Manlius has a median year built of 1972, so if your house is from that era, the wall behind any new cladding is old enough to question. Find out what the wall behind the facing is built from, whether the sheathing will be checked and which barrier goes on. State code wants a water barrier behind adhered veneer and flashing at the base so water can drain out. These layers are what protect the wall after the stone is on.
Which wall are you facing?
Clearance is the detail owners miss. On stud walls, adhered veneer needs 4 inches above soil and 2 inches above paving, so ask the office what applies to a block foundation, and remember that a sloped lot can change those gaps from one corner of the house to the other. Ask the mason to mark finished grade on each wall before ordering stone.
Older village houses in Manlius and Fayetteville are a different job from subdivision homes. About 11.2 percent of town homes were built in 1939 or earlier, and facing those walls means checking for moisture first. On newer houses, a builder may already have used stone or brick on the front, and the question becomes how to match it.
Which office to call depends on your address. The town handles permits through Manlius's Planning and Development Department, and the village keeps its own Code Enforcement, Building and Zoning Department. If a chase or a tall wall is part of the plan, ask the office what it needs, and ask about footings for any stone pier or column, since frost depth is a local setting that the office can confirm.

Here in Manlius
Manlius spans old village cores and new subdivisions, so the age of the wall behind the veneer, 1939 or earlier on 11.2 percent of homes, changes the scope.
