FAQ
The questions families ask before they order
These four answers are the same ones on the homepage. The articles below are the longer pieces already in the learn library. Nothing here is a new promise.
- How much does a monument cost?
- The price on each listing is the price stored for that design. Upright monuments start around $1,500, and flat markers begin at $500. Personalize the monument online, then request a quote and we'll confirm the final price with you. The cost guide is a planning range from those same stored prices. It is not a new price.
- How long does it take to get a monument installed?
- Most monuments are ready in 8-12 weeks; we'll confirm timing when you order. The shipping policy is where that timeline is written out.
- Do you work with all cemeteries?
- Every cemetery has its own requirements. The cemetery rules page lists what to ask before you order. We help you check those rules so the monument matches the lot.
- Can I design my monument online?
- Yes. Personalize a published design online: add the name, dates, and epitaph, choose from ten granite colors, and see your inscription on the stone before you order. A designer sends a proof. Nothing is cut until you approve it.
