Your monument is cut and engraved in our shop by the same people you met with.
Setting
We coordinate with the cemetery and set the stone on its foundation.

Common questions
Don't see yours? Call us. We're glad to talk it through.
How much does a headstone cost?
It depends on size, granite color, shape, and how much carving is involved. We give you a written quote at your consultation, and we'll help you find a design that fits your budget.
How long does it take?
Timelines vary with the design and the cemetery's approval and setting schedule. In-stock monuments can move faster. We'll give you a realistic date when you order.
Can you add a date to a stone someone else made?
Yes. With our portable lettering equipment we can add names and dates on site at the cemeteries we serve, matching the existing lettering as closely as possible.
Do you work with my cemetery's rules?
Every cemetery has its own size, material, and foundation requirements. We check them before designing so your memorial is approved without surprises.
Can I visit before deciding?
Please do. Call ahead so we can set aside time for you, and we'll walk you through the monuments we have in stock.
Can monuments be set in winter?
Some cemeteries pause foundations and settings when the ground freezes. You can still design and order during winter so your stone is ready when setting resumes.
