I know this is old but we are having a house built that called for Brick in the front only siding on sides and back with a skirt of stone going across the bottom. Our brick store said everyone that had a house that called for brick plus stone and had our Everest Grey Brick had chosen this stone. Only difference is we are using Charcoal mortar on our brick I am not sure if the others did. But I still hope it looks nice and love this stone.
