Companion Upright Monuments for Families in Fredericksburg, TX.

Yes. We can return to the cemetery in Fredericksburg and engrave the final date directly on the stone without removing the monument or disturbing the foundation. Most families pay for the original carving up front and pay only for the final date engraving when it is needed.

It depends. The cemetery's section rule sets the maximum size; how much lettering and artwork you want on the tablet sets the practical minimum. Send us the section you have purchased in Fredericksburg and we will draw two or three options to scale before you commit.

No. Online monument companies typically charge around 80 percent of the price while doing about 50 percent of the work. They cut a stone and ship it in a box. They do not deliver to the cemetery, they do not set the marker, and they do not handle the cemetery office. At Texas Lonestar Monuments, nearly half of the labor and time in every monument is the installation itself. To set a monument properly takes a truck with a crane, lifting straps, lifting bars, setting compound, a concrete foundation, specialized tools, and the experience to know how to use them. It also takes the things that keep a crew on the road across Texas — tires, oil changes, insurance, and the wages of the people doing the work. If all we did was create a monument and ship it across the country, our prices would be lower too. We choose to do the whole job, from design through installation, because that is what a family deserves. Please give us a call for a custom quote and we will show you exactly what is included.
