Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a headstone and a monument?
A headstone typically refers to an upright stone placed at the head of a single grave, while a monument can describe a broader range of memorial structures including slant markers, bevel markers, and larger family monuments covering multiple graves. Your provider can show you examples of each style and explain which options are approved at your specific cemetery.
Does Empire Granite Monuments work with all cemeteries in Worcester?
Most local monument dealers have established relationships with cemeteries throughout their service area and are familiar with individual cemetery rules. It's still a good idea to mention which cemetery you're working with so they can confirm they're approved to install there.
How much does a granite monument typically cost in the Worcester area?
Pricing varies widely based on stone type, monument size, and the complexity of the engraving work. A basic single upright headstone might start around $1,000 to $1,500, while larger double monuments with detailed artwork can run several thousand dollars.
Can I request a specific granite color to match an existing family stone?
Yes, most granite monument suppliers carry a range of colors and can often source specific shades to closely match existing family monuments in a cemetery. Bring a photo of the existing stone when you meet with the provider so they can compare options.
What information do I need to bring when ordering a monument?
You'll need the full legal name of the deceased, birth and death dates, and any additional text or verses you want included. If you want a portrait or custom artwork, bring digital files or physical photos along with any religious symbols or family insignia you'd like incorporated.
Is there a warranty on the engraving or stonework?
Reputable monument providers stand behind their work, and many offer warranties covering defects in craftsmanship or stone quality. Ask specifically what the warranty covers, how long it lasts, and what the process is if you notice a problem after installation.
