Question 1

How long does it take to get a headstone installed in Indianapolis?

Accepted Answer

For in-stock granite, the typical turnaround time is 12 weeks. Custom orders or special imports may take 4-6 months. We handle all foundation scheduling with Indianapolis cemeteries like Floral Park and Crown Hill to ensure timely installation.

In addition to Indianpolis, we are also very familiar with cemteries in surrounding counties like Maple Hill in Plainfield or White Lick in Mooresville for example.

Question 2

Do you handle the cemetery paperwork and permits?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Thomas Monuments communicates directly with your cemetery to verify their specific regulations, foundation fees, and size restrictions. We ensure your memorial meets all cemetery requirements before we cut the stone.

Question 3

Can I design a headstone online before visiting the West Washington St. showroom?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. You can fill out our Design & Quote Request form, we will create personalized design options for you based on the information you provide along with a quote. Once you are ready, June, Rachel or Blake at 7009 W. Washington St. can refine the design with your input and begin the order process.

Question 4

Do you offer a warranty on your monuments?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every headstone comes with a Perpetual Craftsmanship Warranty against cracking or defects. We also provide a Best Price Guarantee: we will beat any written quote from a local competitor for the same size and grade of granite.

Question 5

Do you offer custom laser etching and sandblasting?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We utilize the latest precision sandblasting and laser etching technologies to create highly detailed, custom memorials. While some companies outsource this work, we handle everything in-house. Whether you want a traditional deeply-carved sandblasted design or a photorealistic laser-etched portrait on black granite, our advanced equipment ensures absolute perfection and durability.

Question 6

Do I need to visit your showroom to design and order a headstone?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. We frequently work with out-of-town families and handle long-distance orders seamlessly. By using our "Request Free Design" form, you can start the entire process from the comfort of your home. We use modern design software to provide detailed digital proofs, allowing you to visualize and approve the exact memorial before any stone is carved. We coordinate all the details via phone and/or email, and we handle the local cemetery permits and installation here in Indiana, giving you complete peace of mind no matter where you live.
