A LITTLE GUIDANCE
There is no need
to know it all.
We’re here to help you make thoughtful choices, one step at a time.
Where should I start?
Start with a conversation. If you know the cemetery and have an idea of the memorial you would like, bring those along. If you are unsure, we can help you explore the options.
What should I bring?
The cemetery name and location, any cemetery requirements you have, the names and dates to be inscribed, and any photographs or examples you like. You do not need to have every detail ready for a first visit.
How much does a memorial cost?
The cost depends on the size, granite, shape, finish, lettering, personal details and installation requirements. We will discuss your preferences and prepare a quote for the work you are considering.
How long will it take?
Timing depends on material availability, the design, approvals, and cemetery or installation conditions. We will discuss the expected timing for your particular memorial.
Will I be able to review the design?
Yes. We will work through the inscription and design with you before approval. Carefully checking the spelling, dates and layout is an important part of the process.
Does my cemetery have rules?
Many cemeteries have requirements for memorial size, materials, foundations or placement. Let us know the cemetery early so these can be considered before your design is finalized.
Can you add an inscription to an existing memorial?
Contact us with the cemetery location and details of the existing memorial. We can discuss the lettering you need and what information will be helpful.
Can I plan a memorial in advance?
Yes. You are welcome to talk with us about planning ahead, at your own pace. We can discuss your preferences and the questions you would like to work through.
