Frequently asked questions.
How much does a granite memorial cost?
Price is dependent upon style, size, color and the amount of lettering/design incorporated into the project. The most common memorials range from $1,000 for a small footstone marker to $4,000 for a mid-range upright marker.
How long does it take to get a memorial?
If we have the materials in stock, a memorial may be ready for preparation and installation in as little as 3 - 5 weeks. If material needs to be ordered it could take up to 3 months.
What information is necessary to start a project?
Contact information, personal information such as names, birth and/or death dates, the cemetery the memorial will be installed at and contacts for the cemetery.
What granite colors are available?
Color availability changes, but a list of available colors can be provided by calling our office.
Is it possible to incorporate photos into a memorial?
Yes, we can incorporate images using porcelain. They have a lifetime warranty and add a personal touch to any memorial. Additionally, these can be added to existing memorials. Call for more info and pricing.
What is the process for companion memorials?
It is the same process as a single memorial but with additional lettering and information.
How is the final date added to the memorial?
We add the final date on-site at the cemetery using the same sandblasted engraving as the original stenciling. In addition to adding final dates to our own projects, we will perform this service on other projects and for funeral homes.
How long does it take to add the final date?
We strive to get our final dates done promptly. Please call for availability.
Are there additional costs to adding the final date?
Yes, please call for pricing.
Do you repair existing memorials?
Yes, we acid wash stones, re-level foundations, add new foundations, re-highlight old engraving and also perform grave site restoration (including dirt work and seeding).
