Adobe Brick Veneer
|
|
Adobe Brick Veneer is made of three/quarter-inch thick, lightweight vermiculite and portland cement
which has been cast from molds that were made from real adobe blocks. Adobe Brick Veneer gives the homeowner
or builder all the natural beauty of adobe blocks at 1/20 the weight. Some of the other advantages of
the paneling bricks versus the real adobe blocks are:
|
 |
- No concrete footings required
- Simple to install and finish
- Can be installed on most surfaces
- Requires no bond beams
- Does not delaminate or peel
- Less expensive

Adobe Brick Veneer is an inexpensive, easy to install alternative for homeowners and interior decorators
wanting the look and feel traditional adobe found in Southwestern architecture. Traditional adobe building
blocks are quite heavy and labor intensive. In addition, shipping costs incurred to transport adobe
blocks any distance would be substantial.

Our lightweight Adobe Brick Veneer is easily attached to existing walls regardless of construction methods
originally used. After installation of the Adobe Brick Veneer, your walls can be quickly finished in
a variety of methods. Complete the conversion of your plain, flat walls into the richly textured surfaces
you would expect to find in a Spanish Mission or adobe homes built during the days of the Pueblo Revival.
The Pueblo Revival is a design craze that redefined Southwestern architecture and swept across the United
States during the 1920s and 1930s.
Installing a nicho or adding a Kiva-style fireplace to your new adobe room can add warmth to the interior
design. Add the imagery of the Old West and with its clashing cultures as the learning to coexist during
the dynamic westward expansion era of this country’s history. Santa Fe, New Mexico is well known for
its distinctive architecture that reflects a mixture of styles influenced by Pueblo Indians, Hispanic
settlers, and even early Euro American pioneers. Walls highlighted with our Adobe Brick Veneer will
remind you of homes built in Santa Fe.
