How does Tando compare to real or manufactured stone?

Tando installs in a fraction of the time, weighs a fraction as much, and costs significantly less. Real stone has the most visual depth; Tando is close enough that most viewers don't notice the difference from normal distance.

Can Tando be used on a full elevation?

Yes — full elevations, accent walls, wainscot, and column wraps are all common applications.

Does Tando require any maintenance?

No periodic maintenance. Occasional rinse with a garden hose to remove dirt is typically all that's needed.

What colors are available?

10+ standard color blends mimicking common natural stone varieties. We bring samples to the home to view against existing siding and trim.

About Tando Stone

Tando composite stone gives Indiana homes the visual depth of real stone at a fraction of the installed cost and structural weight. Perfect for accent walls, wainscot, and full-elevation upgrades.

Tando is a polymer-composite stone-veneer system that interlocks panel-to-panel and fastens to standard framing. No mortar, no wire lath, no masonry weight — installs in a fraction of the time of real or manufactured stone and at a fraction of the cost.

The visual depth is the surprise: panels are molded from real-stone masters, so the texture and color variation read as real stone from any normal viewing distance. Color blends are factory-engineered for natural pattern variation across an elevation.

Lifetime limited warranty backs the product against fade, crack, and defect. As a polymer composite it's not subject to the freeze-thaw spalling that affects some manufactured stone systems in Indiana climate.
