MONUMENTS
DESIGN & INSTALLATION SERVICES
Columbia Gardens Cemetery offers complete headstone and monument design services to fulfill your wishes, either pre-need or at-need. Our experienced staff can help you craft a monument or marker to suit any budget and style.
The best way to begin the process of designing your monument is to walk with us through the cemetery. Our staff will be happy to show you the wide range of monument styles currently in our cemetery. We can help you determine what would look best in the area that contains your plot and make suggestions about what colors and styles will be most durable, due to sun or shade that might affect the stone.
HIGHEST QUALITY GRANITE & BRONZE
Columbia Gardens Cemetery works with the finest quarries in the United States and abroad to provide you with the memorialization you and your family deserve.
CREATE YOUR DESIGN
Our experienced staff will assist you in designing your monument and ensure you receive the highest quality craftsmanship in the industry. We can help you select the palette of the granite from more than 30 colors and then show you your color choice on different monument styles. What’s more, we can help you with type font selection, placement and the addition of decorative etchings to add to the beauty of your monument.
State-of-the-art laser etching technology enables you to add intricate designs to your monument. We can even take your photographs and have parts of them etched into the granite. The possibilities are almost endless to create a monument that reflects your personal wishes. Our staff will walk you through the process.
EXPERT INSTALLATION
When your monument arrives, we will inspect it carefully to ensure every detail in the approved drawings are precisely reflected on your monument. Our expert grounds crew will then prepare the foundation pad for the monument and carefully set it in position.
Columbia Gardens Cemetery further guarantees the foundation and installation for 50 years.
OUR POLICY
The choice of style and manufacturer of your memorialization is up to you, within the framework of our rules and regulations. Whatever your decision, we recommend that you discuss your choice of monument provider with Columbia Gardens prior to ordering. We are happy to review a quote from a different monument company to see if we can match or even lower the price. We will review other vendors to assure that their quality is consistent with our cemetery. For example, Columbia Gardens no longer allows monuments procured from online-only monument makers, due to our experience with quality issues.
