Sedistone installation in progress
Installation

Simple Installation.
Serious Performance.

Prepare the wall correctly, manage water carefully, and let Sedistone’s mechanical fastening system do the rest.

Six-part installation path

The System Behind the Stone

What you see is stone. What makes Sedistone different is what happens behind it. The QS fastening system mechanically secures each stone unit while creating space for drainage and ventilation—all without traditional mortar.

01

Prepare Structural Sheathing

Start with properly secured structural sheathing with enough fastener capacity to support the 15–20 lb. per sq. ft. cladding load.

02

Install Membranes & Flashings

Apply the appropriate weatherproof membrane, seal openings, and install flashing to direct moisture away from the wall.

03

Set the Starter Strip

Install the starter strip level with drainage holes toward the wall, leaving ¼ inch above the flashing for drainage.

04

Plan & Mix the Stone

Plan corners and openings before starting, and pull from four to five boxes to evenly distribute natural color variation.

05

Fasten & Stagger the Stone

Insert the QS spacer and stainless-steel clip, secure each stone with the provided screw, and stagger vertical joints as you install.

06

Trim & Finish

Keep factory-finished ends at visible openings and complete transitions with the appropriate sill, siding, flashing, or trim.
