Helpful information about ordering, cemetery requirements, design, production, delivery, installation, payment, warranty and memorial care from Memory Headstones, a member of H Memorial Group.
Before you order
Ordering & cemetery requirements
1What should I confirm with the cemetery before placing an order?
Obtain the cemetery's current requirements in writing before ordering. The cemetery's written approval and final acceptance remain subject to its own rules. Confirm at least the following:
- Permitted material and granite color.
- Minimum and maximum dimensions, thickness, base and foundation requirements.
- Permitted memorial type, including flat, bevel, slant, upright, companion, infant or bench.
- Permit, delivery, access, setting and installation requirements and cemetery charges.
- Whether vases, flags, photographs, lights, QR memorials or other accessories are permitted.
2Can I purchase a memorial from an independent provider?
Cemetery acceptance, specifications, fees and installation requirements are governed by the cemetery's written rules and applicable state and local law. Confirm vendor eligibility and all product requirements directly with the cemetery before purchase. Memory Headstones does not claim that every cemetery must accept every outside product.
3Can the Memory Headstones team help verify cemetery requirements?
Yes. Every order includes a full cemetery compliance check (size, shape, thickness, material and inscriptions) and help with cemetery documentation and approvals. Final cemetery acceptance is controlled by the cemetery, and the purchaser must ensure that the selected memorial conforms to the written cemetery requirements before production and installation.
Price, design & production
What is included & how it is made
4What is included in the displayed product price?
The memorial, standard inscriptions (name, dates and short text) and the inclusions listed on the product page, written quote and signed agreement. Unless expressly stated otherwise, the displayed price and discount base exclude taxes, cemetery and permit fees, foundation, installation, additional delivery, Monument Service Group services, provider fees, third-party charges and separately purchased services.
5How are engraving and production handled?
The method depends on the product, granite and design. It may include sandblasting, laser etching, carving or another appropriate process. A production method, origin, turnaround time or inventory status is published only when verified for that specific product.
6How many design revisions are included?
Every Memory Headstones order includes a free 3D design preview with 2 revisions. Unlimited revisions are not promised; additional revisions may require a separate written price and schedule.
7When does production begin?
Production begins only after the applicable payment milestone, cemetery approval, your final design approval, complete order information and signed-contract conditions have all been satisfied. Production time, delivery time and installation time are separate and are not guaranteed to align.
Delivery & installation
Getting the memorial to the cemetery
8How does delivery work?
Memory Headstones memorials include free delivery within the 48 contiguous states. Alaska and Hawaii are available for an additional charge with a separate written shipping quote.
Special freight and service-only work follow the written quote.
9How does installation work?
Installation is available in all 50 states, by our team or a coordinated qualified local contractor. A specific job is quoted or scheduled only after the cemetery, ZIP code, plot, product, access, permit, foundation, provider, price and schedule are confirmed in writing. National intake does not guarantee a fixed price or availability in every ZIP code.
Payment, discounts & warranty
Payment options & coverage
10How do payment and financing options work?
Memory Headstones offers approved full-payment, 3-month, 6-month and long-term internal installment options of 12, 18, 24, 30 or 36 months under a signed agreement, with 36 months as the public default. Klarna, Affirm or another provider is separate third-party financing governed by that provider's approval and terms.
11Can discounts be combined?
Only one program may be used per order: 20% pay in full, 12.5% on a 3-month plan, 10% on a 6-month plan, or Veterans 10% / First Responders 5% on an eligible long-term plan. The verified Smart Showroom 10% is the only approved additional reduction and is calculated after one eligible program. Taxes and excluded fees are never discounted.
12What does the warranty cover?
Warranty coverage is product-specific and only the written warranty supplied with your quote and agreement controls. It applies only to the covered memorial product as stated in that policy. Do not treat it as blanket lifetime coverage for delivery, installation, foundation, cemetery conditions, third-party work, vandalism, external damage, removal or reinstallation.
Damage, storage & cancellation
Claims, storage & cancellation
13What happens if a product is damaged during transportation?
Report visible or concealed damage within 7 days of delivery through our contact channels and retain photographs, packaging and delivery records. The claim is reviewed under the written carrier, delivery and product terms.
14Is long-term storage included?
No free, unlimited or long-term storage program is offered. Storage is available only when Memory Headstones confirms the location, duration, price, risk, release conditions and responsibility in a written agreement.
15What are the cancellation rules?
For personalized made-to-order memorials, the approved framework is a 10% cancellation charge during the first three calendar days; a 30% charge after day three through day thirty when production has not begun; and no refund after production begins, subject to the signed agreement and applicable law.
16Which company issues the final quote and agreement?
Memory Headstones issues the quote, invoice, agreement and payment terms for its memorials. H Memorial Group is the corporate information and routing hub and does not operate a consumer storefront or accept product checkout.
Additional support
Additional claims & support information
17What happens if a memorial does not match the approved design or specifications?
If Memory Headstones confirms that the memorial does not match your approved design, specifications or signed scope because of its error, we review the record and provide the appropriate remedy under the written agreement and applicable law. Depending on the issue, this may include repair, correction, remake or replacement. No single remedy is guaranteed for every claim.
18When is production considered started?
Production is considered started when work specific to your custom memorial has begun, such as stone cutting, engraving, sandblasting, carving, laser etching or other personalization. The production record and signed agreement control the determination for the order.
19What should I do when a delivery arrives or damage is discovered?
Inspect the packaging before signing for delivery when possible. If visible damage exists, note it with the carrier at delivery. Keep photographs of the packaging, labels and product together with the delivery records, and report visible or concealed damage to us immediately by phone, email or the contact form.
20Can a requested production, delivery or installation date be guaranteed?
Contact us before ordering when a specific date matters. A requested date is not guaranteed unless Memory Headstones confirms it in writing after reviewing the product, approvals, production capacity, freight, cemetery requirements, access and installation availability. Custom memorials typically take 3 to 6 months from design approval to delivery.
21Are rush orders available?
A rush request may be reviewed before purchase, but availability is not guaranteed. If rush handling is approved, the added charge, affected production scope and any confirmed date must appear in the written quote or agreement. Rush handling does not guarantee carrier performance, cemetery acceptance or installation availability.
22How should I care for a granite memorial?
Care requirements vary by granite, finish, photograph, accessory and environment. Follow only the product-specific written care instructions supplied with your memorial. If no care guide was supplied, contact us before cleaning, polishing, sealing, repairing or applying any chemical to the stone.
