Voice-Driven Estimates
Our AI listens as you describe your project, captures square footage, corner details, and substrate conditions, and returns an on-screen materials list in seconds.
Live Material Pricing
CountBricks syncs with regional supplier databases, ensuring every stone, adhesive, and fastener is priced at today’s market rate—no hidden markups.
Blueprint Takeoffs, Automated
Upload a PDF plan, and our computer-vision engine traces walls, openings, and corners, then calculates exact veneer coverage and waste factors.
Instant Labor Scheduling
We apply local wage data and crew productivity benchmarks to forecast duration and labor cost. Homeowners see realistic timelines before signing.
1. Materials: stone panels, corner pieces, mortar or polymer adhesive
2. Surface Prep: weather-resistant barrier, lath, scratch coat
3. Labor: demolition of existing cladding if needed, layout, cutting, installation, grouting
4. Equipment: wet saws, scaffolding, safety gear
5. Cleanup & Disposal: debris removal and site wash-down
• Exterior accent wall (200 sq ft): $4,800 – $6,100 installed
• Full front façade (600 sq ft): $13,500 – $17,500 installed
• Indoor fireplace surround (80 sq ft): $2,100 – $2,900 installed
Note: Real-time prices adjust in the CountBricks dashboard the moment material costs shift.
1. On-site scan with mobile LiDAR captures wall plumbness and obstruction data
2. Surface preparation: WRB, galvanized lath, and scratch coat applied
3. Dry-layout session confirms pattern alignment and corner treatments
4. Adhesive spread and stone panels set from the bottom course upward
5. Joints brushed and tooled for a tight dry-stack appearance
6. Final rinse to remove mortar haze, followed by client walk-through
• Back-butter each panel to ensure full contact and eliminate voids
• Stagger vertical seams at least 6 inches for natural randomness
• Use diamond blades specific to veneer stone to prevent edge spalling
• Mist the scratch coat on hot days to avoid premature curing
• Seal high-splash areas like BBQ surrounds with a breathable stone sealer
• Skipping WRB or lath, leading to moisture intrusion
• Failing to account for corner returns when ordering materials
• Over-tight joint spacing that causes cracking during thermal expansion
CountBricks foresees these issues in the estimating stage and budgets corrective measures automatically.
• Annual low-pressure wash keeps efflorescence at bay
• Re-seal high-exposure areas every 3-5 years
• Inspect caulk joints around windows and doors each spring
