Stone walls built from natural wall stone are beautiful, but the advantages they offer don’t end there. When properly constructed by a professional, they offer…
Choosing the type of wall stone you’ll use is just one decision you’ll have to make when building a stone wall. You’ll also need to decide between dry-stack (no mortar) and wet-stack (with mortar). Let’s talk about the details of each, so you can make a decision based on both appearance and performance.
Dry-stack stone walls are constructed without mortar, relying on precise stone placement and the skillful arrangement of stones to create a secure, stable structure. This technique, commonly used in rural and naturalistic settings, offers an organic, rustic charm that harmonizes with natural landscapes.
One of the key advantages of dry-stack walls is flexibility; because there is no mortar, these walls are more adaptable to changes in ground movement and temperature fluctuations, allowing them to shift slightly without cracking or breaking.
Dry-stack stone walls are ideal for areas with moderate slopes or as garden walls where drainage is a priority. They also have a lower environmental impact since no cement or mortar is needed, making them a sustainable choice.
In contrast, wet-stack stone walls use mortar to bond the stones together, creating a solid, more formal structure that is both durable and strong.
Wet-stack walls are often chosen for their polished appearance and ability to provide robust support for retaining structures or property boundaries. The mortar provides an additional layer of stability, making these walls ideal for areas exposed to extreme weather conditions or with higher structural demands.
Wet-stack walls can be styled with a clean finish or a more rustic look, determined by the stones’ arrangement and the mortar’s visibility. Thanks to their reinforced structure, wet-stack walls are an excellent option for projects requiring long-term durability. When you wet-stack stones, you can build the wall higher and know that it will withstand a heavier load than a dry-stack wall would.
