Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to get a monument made in Woodstown?
Most granite monuments take between four and eight weeks from the time you approve the final design. More complex pieces with custom artwork or multiple inscriptions may take a bit longer, so it's worth starting the process early.
Does Salem County have specific monument size rules for cemeteries?
Individual cemeteries set their own rules, and they vary quite a bit even within Salem County. Your monument provider should contact the cemetery directly to get the current specifications before any stone is cut.
Can a stonemasonry company restore an old headstone instead of replacing it?
Yes, restoration is often possible and more affordable than a full replacement. Common work includes re-cutting faded inscriptions, re-leveling sunken stones, and cleaning decades of biological growth from the surface.
What types of granite are most popular for cemetery monuments in New Jersey?
Gray and black granites are the most common choices because they hold up well in New Jersey's freeze-thaw climate and maintain a polished finish for decades. Some families choose red or blue-gray granites for a distinctive look.
Can I add a family member's name to an existing monument later?
In most cases, yes. A stonemasonry professional can add additional inscriptions to a monument that already has space reserved, either by sandblasting or hand carving the new text. The match to the original lettering style is usually very close.
Do I need to be present for the monument installation?
It's not required, but many families find it meaningful to be there. The installation team coordinates with the cemetery and handles the physical placement, so your presence is a personal choice rather than a logistical necessity.
