Putting stacked ledger stone over painted stucco - how thick on backer board?
My wife and I are planning to install stacked ledger stone over painted exterior stucco walls as accents. After researching I intend to add a vapor barrier behind, tapcon concrete backer board to the walls, then used outdoor rated thinset on the board and back butter the stone pieces. My question is can I get away with 1/4 inch thick concrete board if I put tapcons at 12” spacing or do I need to used 1/2” concrete board? The stone will only go up about 30” and will be capped with travertine. Thanks for thoughts!
