Supporting you with clarity, compassion, and trusted guidance.
At Rico Monuments, we understand this may be a difficult time. Whether you’re planning ahead or honoring a loved one, we’re here to guide you through the process with clarity, compassion, and respect.
Monument Design & Customization
What types of monuments do you offer?
We offer upright monuments, flat markers, bevels, slants, benches, bronze memorials, and custom carvings — all crafted from high-quality domestic and imported granite.
Can I customize the design?
Absolutely. From shape and size to lettering, imagery, and granite color, we’ll help you create a meaningful and personal tribute.
How long does the process take?
Most domestic granite memorials take 8–12 weeks. Imported or custom pieces may take longer. We’ll keep you updated throughout the process.
Location, Installation & Delivery
Do you install the monument at the cemetery?
Yes. We provide installation and will coordinate directly with your cemetery.
Do you deliver outside your local area?
We offer regional delivery and can arrange shipping to other states when needed. Contact us for more information.
What do I need to know about cemetery rules?
Each cemetery has specific regulations. We’re familiar with most local cemeteries and will ensure compliance with their guidelines.
Pricing, Payment & Policies
How much do monuments cost?
Pricing depends on the type of granite, size, and complexity of the design. We offer a wide range of options to meet your needs and budget.
Do you offer bronze memorials?
Yes. We offer cast bronze memorials, as well as bronze-on-granite combinations. Bronze is a popular choice in many cemeteries and can be customized with emblems, portraits, or inscriptions.
Are there any additional cemetery fees?
Yes. Some cemeteries require a separate fee for setting, permitting, or maintaining a monument — whether it’s granite or bronze. These fees are not included in our pricing and must be paid directly to the cemetery. We’ll help guide you through what’s required based on the location.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept cash, checks, and all major credit cards. Payment plans may be available.
Is a deposit required?
Yes, a deposit is required to begin the design process. The balance is due before installation.
Can I plan in advance?
Yes. Pre-need planning lets you make arrangements in advance, lock in today’s pricing, and reduce future stress for loved ones.
What if I need to add a name or date later?
We provide onsite engraving for final dates and additional inscriptions. Just contact us when you’re ready.
Please note: this service is not included in the original monument price and will be billed separately when the engraving is needed.
