If a cemetery requires design approval simply hold your approval until they do. Rejection by cemetery for any reason other than restrictions that should have been addressed in prior contact will be refunded 100%. Refunds for restrictions buyer did not ascertain prior to order will have design time subtracted. We do not engrave until you approve.
Engraving- We flash panels on gray stones in double process sandblast carving. This creates the best contrast for visibility on a light color stone. The double process carving creates crisp cut text. An extra step to ensure every monument represents our work and the honor given us by the customer to memorialize a life. Standing for eternity we take this honor very seriously. Headstones are carved to depth approx. 7/16” and filled with best in class stone paint. Our engraving process from approved design is normally 5-6 weeks to ship. If you need this sooner, you can contact us for quote. You will pay overtime rate for our people to process your stone after normal working hours. We will never place your order in front of an order placed earlier and process during regular working hours. Expect this to add significant costs to your monument.
Additional options to complete the personalization of your monument. Once you have selected items please contact us and we will create a custom listing with your selections.
Portraits- Ceramic are full color and recessed into the granite and affixed with stone epoxy.
