Granite monuments can be crafted in a wide variety of shapes and sizes to bring your vision to life.
Whether you are commemorating a single life or celebrating the bond of two lives together, our designs are available in both individual and companion sizes—so your tribute can be as personal and meaningful as your memories.
By blending shapes, surfaces, and finishes, we create monuments that are not just markers, but enduring symbols of love, legacy, and remembrance.
Flat markers offer a timeless and understated way to honour a loved one's life. Crafted in either 3" or 4" thickness, they are designed to be installed flush with the ground or elevated on a solid granite foundation. Their clean, elegant profile creates a lasting tribute that blends beautifully with the surrounding landscape while providing ample space for personalized inscriptions, artwork, and meaningful details.
Pillow markers offer a graceful and elegant way to create a lasting tribute while maintaining a low-profile design. Set flat on the ground, they may be installed directly on a foundation or complemented with a granite base for added presence. Featuring a gentle slope that typically rises 6"–8" at the back and tapers to 3"–5" at the front, pillow markers provide a comfortable viewing angle while beautifully displaying inscriptions, artwork, and personal details.
Upright monuments are a timeless and distinguished choice, and are set vertically on a solid granite base and foundation. They provide a beautiful canvas for meaningful inscriptions, artwork, and personalized design elements. Typically ranging from 4"–8" in thickness, upright monuments maintain a consistent depth from the top to the base, offering exceptional versatility in design.
Hickey monuments offer a refined balance between the simplicity of a flat marker and the presence of a traditional upright memorial. Designed with a distinctive gentle slope, they measure approximately 3" thick at the top and gradually increase to 6" or 8" at the base, creating added height and visibility while maintaining a low-profile appearance.
Our team can help guide you in selecting the finish that best fits your vision and the memory of your loved one.
We use two specialized techniques to add lettering and artwork to our granite monuments: Sandblasting and Laser Etching. Each method brings out the beauty and detail of your design in its own way, ensuring a tribute that is both lasting and visually striking.
It’s the most widely used method for memorial lettering and is trusted for its durability and clarity — ensuring your tribute remains as beautiful and legible for generations to come.
Laser etching is a modern engraving technique we use to create finely detailed lettering and images on memorials. This method allows us to incorporate photorealistic portraits, custom artwork, and intricate designs with exceptional precision and clarity.
To ensure the highest quality results and the best contrast, laser etching is performed exclusively on black granite, which provides the perfect surface for showcasing subtle details and depth.
Whether it’s a beloved photograph, a special symbol, or a meaningful scene, laser etching offers a beautiful way to personalize a monument and capture the spirit of a life well lived.
