Common Monument Styles

Custom upright granite monuments are above ground and consist primarily of two pieces being the tablet and base. Additions could include a bronze plaque, a vase or shape-carved and/or bronze ornaments.

Choosing an upright monument allows your family to create any style desired as there are a range of various, shapes, colours, and textures available for the tablet and base. The upright monuments can be significantly larger than one flush with the grass. This allows for a considerable amount of room to be left for customization and personalization.

*Please Note: Not every cemetery will allow an upright monument. Please check with the cemetery, City by-laws or the staff at Surrey Monument to inquire about uprights and the size regulations.
