Exterior Façade Cladding Without the Scaffolding Budget

The economics of a small façade renovation are mostly not about material. They're about access: scaffolding hire, street permits, structural anchors, and the weeks a shopfront stands closed while stone is craned into place.

Weather-rated flexible stone changes the input weights. At 3–6 kg per square metre, panels carry no structural implication; they bond to sound render the way an interior sheet bonds to plaster. A two-person crew and a tower scaffold replace the crane.

Eleven of DECORA's designs are façade-rated: stable from −40 °C to +80 °C, freeze-thaw tested, sealed against driven rain. The finish reads as travertine or slate from the pavement — and the street never closed.
