Granite Monuments example by Sadler & Son

Service

Granite and marble monuments built for lasting remembrance.

Granite and marble are chosen for cemetery monuments because they are durable, dignified, and able to hold inscriptions, carving, and polished details for generations.

What should families know about granite monuments?

Granite and marble monument options include upright headstones, companion monuments, slants, benches, boulders, civic memorials, and custom shapes. Color, size, finish, carving, and cemetery rules all affect the final design and quote.

Granite and marble colors and finishes

Families can review granite and marble colors, polished surfaces, carved lettering, sandblasted details, and etched artwork. The right choice depends on the cemetery, budget, design goals, and how much contrast the inscription needs.

Built around cemetery requirements

Many cemeteries limit monument size, height, foundations, and marker type. Sadler & Son helps confirm those rules before a family commits to a design.

Memorials for families and communities

The company has experience with family monuments, veterans memorials, civic memorials, and custom commemorative stonework for families and communities throughout the region.

What happens after you call

  1. We talk

    Call us or visit the Hobbs or Roswell office. Tell us about your loved one, the cemetery, and what you have in mind — or let us walk you through the options if you are not sure yet.

  2. You approve the drawing

    We prepare a to-scale drawing of the design and wording and send it by email, text, fax, or mail so your whole family can review it. Nothing is carved until you approve.

    Your approval comes first

  3. We handle cemetery approval

    Every cemetery has rules about size, height, marker type, and foundations. We check the requirements and handle the approval so you do not have to.

  4. We make your memorial in-house

    Your memorial is made in our own workshop, in granite and marble — by the same family business that has cared for these details for generations.

  5. We deliver and install

    We coordinate delivery, the foundation, and installation with the cemetery, and make sure everything is set right.

Common questions

Helpful answers before a family calls.

How much does a headstone cost?

Headstone cost depends on granite or marble color, size, shape, finish, inscription, artwork, photos, vases, cemetery requirements, delivery, and installation. Sadler & Son reviews those details before giving a clear quote.

How long does a monument take?

Most monument timelines depend on cemetery approval, design proofing, granite availability, production, delivery, and installation scheduling. The office explains the likely timeline once the memorial style and cemetery are known.

Can you help with cemetery rules?

Yes. Cemetery rules often affect size, height, placement, foundation, and marker type. Sadler & Son helps families check requirements before a final design is approved.

What granite and marble colors are available?

Granite and marble are available in many colors and patterns. Availability can vary, so the best next step is to review current options with the office while discussing cemetery rules and design goals.
