Professional Artistic Design
Our design philosophy is simple: to translate your desires and needs into a beautiful,
lasting monument. We use on-staff, experienced artists who can create almost
anything you can imagine. Once you have selected your monument, we use computer design technology to provide you with a scaled layout of your monument.
We have an on-site laser etching machine which can reproduce photographs onto most black granites. Our staff artists can hand-etch portraits and scenery, which may add a more personalized, creative touch to your monument. Our artists are also able
to hand-draw other carved designs that are not already available in our hundreds of standard designs.
In addition to designing Monuments and Markers, Adams Memorials offers several other services to our customers. Please contact us for a free estimate on any of the following services:
Identify Existing Monuments to Match or Replace
Many families like to match their own monument to existing family monuments.
If you provide us with a description and location of the monument, we can go to the cemetery and identify the granite type, measure and take pictures of the monument and provide you with a price to duplicate. We provide this service free of charge; please call us with any questions.
Onsite Cemetery Lettering and Final Dates
We can add final passing dates, lettering and design to existing monuments in the cemetery. We are also skilled at restoring hard to read lettering. Some monuments may take more work than others depending on the type of material or lettering needed. These monuments may be transferred to our facility for a short time so that we may work on them indoors with additional equipment.
Veteran Marker Installation
We also provide installation for markers provided by the Veterans Administration including Bronze, Marble and Granite. Please contact us to discuss available options.
Open and Close Mausoleums and Columbarium Niches
As needed, our monument installers can meet with you at the cemetery in order to open and close mausoleum doors and columbarium niches. This service will need to be pre-arranged and price depends on location and time of service. We are also able to engrave final dates or any additional lettering and design on mausoleum doors and columbarium niches.
Landscape Rocks
We can letter rocks on site at your home or business. We also offer limestone rocks for purchase and are able to deliver them to your home or business. Please keep in mind that not all rocks are ready to be engraved in their natural state and may require additional preparation.
Granite and Marble Cutting and Polishing
If you bring us a piece of Granite or Marble which needs to be cut or polished, we can do it. We have special equipment to cut and polish these very hard, dense stones. In the past, we have polished and cut granite and marble table tops, tiles and cutting boards.
Monument Straightening and Resealing
After many years of being exposed to the elements, monuments may become dislodged or moved from their original placement. We have the equipment and skill to easily move and reseal monuments as needed.
Granite Counter Tops
We also offer several types of granite for Granite Countertops. If you or your contractor provide us with the proper measurements, we can cut and polish granite countertops for you at very reasonable prices.
Cemetery Foundation Work
If there is an older family monument that is unlevel and needs to be reset, please call us for a free estimate. Some monuments are able to be leveled with minimal work and others require more extensive foundation work in order to ensure durability.
Granite Foundation Top
Whether you are ordering a new monument or resetting an older monument, you can choose to add a granite foundation top to your concrete foundation. We will dig the foundation our standard 30 inches deep, yet we will cap off the top 4 inches of the foundation with a granite slab of your color choice. The result is a finished, polished look to your monument as well as a guarantee against surface cracks and chips.
Full Cemetery Renovation
We have a full crew of experienced monument installers who can reset and straighten monuments in an entire cemetery in just a few days. This service is especially useful for older cemeteries, cemeteries that have been struck by inclement weather, stray vehicles and unfortunate vandalism. Please contact us for a free estimate.
