Types of Quality Materials

At George Stones, we use a variety of high-quality materials, each chosen for its unique properties and suitability for different designs.

• Granite: Known for its durability and wide range of colors, granite is a popular choice for headstones. It resists weathering and maintains its polished look over time.
• Marble: Valued for its elegance and classic appearance, marble offers a timeless beauty. However, it requires regular maintenance to prevent weathering.
• Sandstone: A traditional material that is easy to carve, sandstone adds a rustic charm to monuments but needs sealing to protect it from the elements.

The Craftsmanship Difference

Monuments made from high-quality materials require less frequent maintenance and are more resistant to damage. This longevity ensures that the memorial remains a fitting tribute for many years, providing peace of mind to families.
