The price you choose is the most you'll pay.
Pick a package and we design your memorial to that number. If the finished design costs less, you pay less — never more.
$250 to start, and it's yours back until you approve the drawing.
The $250 holds your price and starts the design session. It's part of your first payment, not a fee on top. Change your mind before you approve the drawing and we refund it.
Find a better deal before we install, and we'll match it.
Bring us a written quote for the same monument from anyone else, any time before installation, and we'll match it.
Our owner brought this from commercial construction, where a capped price is called a not-to-exceed contract. We just call it fair.
