Headstones and Grave Markers
in Rock Hill, SC

The Rock Hill showroom

The Rock Hill showroom is on Saluda Street. Out front is a display yard where finished monuments stand in daylight, in the granite colours we actually stock, so you can walk between them instead of scrolling a catalogue. Inside are bronze plates, emblems, lettering styles and the drawings.

You do not need an appointment, and nothing is ordered on a first visit. Most of what we set goes into cemeteries across York, Chester and Lancaster counties. Send us what you need and we will price it, or just call (803) 327-2760.

★★★★★

“We purchased a beautiful monument and it’s a beautiful way to celebrate an amazing life. Thank you to all of the staff that helped us select the perfect headstone, with the additional verbiage and icons for doctor and US Army, that our children wanted to be included in their dad’s Headstone.”

Bring the cemetery name if you have it. Nothing is ordered on the first visit.

2

We check the cemetery

Every cemetery sets its own rules on size, material and foundation. We confirm them before a design is drawn.

3

You approve the drawing

You see the stone with the real names, dates and artwork on it, and nothing is cut until you say yes.

4

We set it

We deliver and set the memorial at the grave, and we come back if anything needs attention.

What it costs

Headstone prices, explained plainly

Size, granite colour and the amount of carving drive the price more than anything else. We keep complete memorials under $1,500 in the showroom as well as work far above that, and we quote the delivered and set price.

How long it takes

There is no deadline, and here is why

Most families set a memorial between two and twelve months after a burial. Ground settling, cemetery seasons and family decisions account for most of the wait. The granite work itself takes weeks, not months.

How long after death is a headstone placed?

Most families set a memorial somewhere between two and twelve months after a burial. There is no legal deadline. The usual reasons for waiting are the ground settling over a new grave, a cemetery that only sets stones in certain seasons, and the family deciding together on wording. Granite work itself typically takes several weeks once the design is approved. Read the full answer.

Do you need permission to put a headstone on a grave?

Yes, in two directions. The cemetery has to approve the memorial, because it sets the rules on size, material, colour and foundation. And whoever holds the rights to the plot has to consent. We handle the cemetery side for you and tell you what they will and will not allow before a design is drawn. Read the full answer.

What does a headstone cost in Rock Hill?

It depends on size, granite colour and how much carving is on it. A flat granite marker sits at the low end, a full upright monument with a base costs more, and a double or custom shape more again. We keep complete memorials under $1,500 in the showroom as well as work well above that. We quote the finished, delivered and set price, not a starting-at number. See the cost guide.

Can you add a date to a stone that is already in the cemetery?

Yes. Adding a second date to an existing memorial is one of the most common things we do. It is cut at the cemetery. Bring or send a photo of the stone and we can tell you what is possible.

Do you deliver to cemeteries outside Rock Hill?

Yes. From the Rock Hill showroom we deliver and set across York, Chester and Lancaster counties and well beyond. If the cemetery is further out, ask us. We have showrooms across the Carolinas and the closest one handles it.

Do I have to buy the memorial from the cemetery?

No. A cemetery can set rules about what a memorial may look like. It cannot require you to buy it from them. You are free to buy from an independent monument company and have it set in their cemetery.
