Craftsmanship

Tue, 19 Nov 2019 01:09:17 GMT

The workmanship on your memorial is as important as the quality of the granite. We want to ensure that your memorial will last for generations to come.

We take great pride in every memorial we create no matter how simple or elaborate it may be. We are devoted to the highest standards of memorial craftsmanship by combining the finest quality granites, skilled craftsmen, memorial artists, old world methods of carving, and modern technology. We guarantee that your memorial will be a true and lasting tribute.

Engraving:

A majority of our engraving is done at our shop facility located in Canton, OH. Our master engraver has been skillfully carving memorials for over 40 years. All of our craftsmen take pride in their work and pay attention to detail every step of the way. Upon completion of your memorial, our quality control staff will inspect your memorial to ensure your complete satisfaction before it is set in the cemetery.

Etchings:

Etchings are a beautiful addition to your memorial and bring an image to life. Portraits, landscape scenes, emblems or any other type of picture can be etched on a memorial. The image becomes like a pencil sketch or actual photograph and becomes life like. An etching only enhances the personal touch on your memorial.

Sculpture Carving:

Sculpture carving a memorial adds a extraordinary three dimensional look to any memorial. Flowers, religious images and other designs become rounded and true works of art. Our sculptors are artists with the ability to take any image and create something truly unique.

Planning Ahead

Tue, 19 Nov 2019 00:49:31 GMT

Planning your memorial in advance ensures that you are being remembered in your own way while protecting your loved ones.

Today, more than ever, people understand the wisdom of planning ahead by taking out insurance policies, setting aside savings and making out a will. Advance planning for a memorial is no different. In each case, it is the wisdom of planning now to make sure the future won’t be so uncertain.

There are countless good reasons for making your memorial choices ahead of time. Here are just three reasons we believe are especially important to consider.

The choice will reflect your wishes.

The memorial designers at Conti Memorials are highly trained and will work with you to personalize your memorial so that it tells a story – one that reflects your life, your interests, your beliefs and your accomplishments. It is peace of mind knowing that you made the right choice for yourself and your family.

Family members won’t be left with decisions during such an emotional time.

At times of grief and loss, it can be very difficult to make important decisions. By preplanning your memorial, you are protecting your family from unnecessary stress. They aren’t left guessing what you would want and can find some comfort knowing that you selected exactly what you liked. It is one of the greatest gifts you can give your loved ones.

Save your family from any financial burdens.

No one can predict the future. Financial troubles can delay memorial purchases by families, sometimes indefinitely. Disagreements can have the same effect. Pre-planning is your protection against these uncertainties and a guarantee that your memorial will happen within a budget that you can afford. It is much easier to purchase in advance. When you purchase now, you have the option to pay for your memorial in full or schedule a payment plan that allows you to spread the cost over three years free of finance charges or interest. The price you receive will be today’s price and it is guaranteed not to increase. Naturally, you will still be able to personalize your own memorial and receive the same guaranteed quality that Conti Memorials offers.

The Selection Process

Tue, 19 Nov 2019 00:39:15 GMT

Selecting your memorial can be a very overwhelming experience and different for every family. There are many decisions to be made in order to create a memorial that is very personal to you. There are many choices to consider during your selection.

Conti Memorials has memorial design specialists that are trained to help you through this process.

The first step is to determine what style of memorial you like. Some cemeteries have restrictions that limit the style of your memorial. Our counselors know the local cemeteries and can guide you into selecting a memorial that will fit within their guidelines.
The granite is going to play a very important role in your decision process. Not only is the granite a determining cost factor, but it also determines how well your memorial will look over time. There are granites that hold up better than others. Conti Memorials offers full, written and perpetual warranties with the granites we are most confident in. Rock of Ages branded granites also come with the best warranty in the industry that is backed by a trust fund.
Size is also another decision that must be made. Like the style of the memorial, some cemeteries will regulate the size or maximum size allowed on your lot. Once again, our memorial counselors are aware of all the local cemetery regulations and will guide you appropriately.
There are several different finishes on a memorial that can drastically change the look of your shape. From all polished sides, rock pitch or rough sides, sawed sides and shellrock are just some of the different finishes you may choose. Our memorial designers will be happy to show you how the look of your memorial can change with each of these choices.
Each family has its own story. Much of that personalization is revealed in the lettering and design on the memorial. Our memorial designers will listen to your story and help you create something that is special and lasting for your family. We recommend that you visit our showroom to speak with one of our designers. They will guide you through your selection process and try to make this experience as easy as possible for your family.
