Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How long will it take for my loved one’s headstone to be produced?
Production times are highly variable. If we have your chosen granite color and shape/size in stock, standard production takes 8-10 weeks. Most uprights and/or special colors are considered “custom orders.” Custom orders may take anywhere from 3-6 months or longer, depending on where the granite is coming from and how much manufacturing is required to shape it to specifications.
Do I have to deliver my loved one’s headstone to the cemetery myself?
No, not useless you would prefer to deliver it yourself. Delivery to any of the Madera Cemetery District cemeteries (including Arbor Vitae, Calvary, Oakhill, North Fork, and Raymond) is included with the purchase of your headstone. Delivery outside of the Madera Cemetery District may incur an additional charge.
Do you charge extra for custom artwork?
No. Custom artwork that can be engraved and painted into the stone are included in your purchase price. Laser engraving, custom paint colors/hand-lettering, and photo portraits or plates will be subject to additional charges.
Where does the granite come from?
This depends on the color or kind of granite. Accent Monuments favors domestic granite quarried and manufactured in the USA. Some popular granite choices, however, are only available from foreign suppliers. We have two granite quarries right here in Central California. Our two local granite options are “Sierra White” from Madera County and “Academy Black” from Fresno County. To see where your chosen granite comes from, see our Granite Colors page.
How much will the headstone cost?
Pricing is variable due to many factors. Contact us today to request a quote on your monument specifications. Our monument pricing always includes artwork and installation (if applicable). Photo portraits, laser engraving, custom paint/lettering, or add-on materials such as statues or vases would be an additional charge if any of those items are desired.
What are your payment policies? Do you accept payments or offer payment plans?
Headstone and monument orders are considered “custom” projects. Once the granite is engraved, it typically cannot be corrected, altered, or re-used. For this reason, all orders must be Paid In Full prior to any engraving or production occurring. Yes, we will accept payments over an extended period. BUT we will not order any production materials (ie. granite) until 50% of the total invoice has been paid and we will not begin production (this includes the engraving and processing of the stone) until the total invoice has been Paid In Full. Production time estimates will be extended if your order/invoice is unpaid or if you are planning on paying via a payment plan.

Built to Last
Our monuments are built to withstand the test of time. We use only the highest quality granite, giving preference to those sourced domestically in the U.S.A. Our American-made granite comes with a limited manufacturer warranty. Each of our monuments are produced using deep-carve sandblasting methods, creating a robust, long-wearing etch in the stone face that will withstand the elements for hundreds of years.
