What Maryland Families Should Know
Buying a Headstone in Maryland
Local monument dealers in Maryland typically charge $2,000 or more for a flat granite headstone.
SilkStone offers 28x16x3in flat granite markers starting at $599 with free custom engraving, shipped to any Maryland address via insured UPS Ground.
Maryland cemetery regulations are governed at the state level by the Maryland Office of Cemetery Oversight, which ensures cemeteries cannot unreasonably restrict families from purchasing markers independently. Cemeteries may charge a reasonable setting fee for markers bought elsewhere.
Maryland's mid-Atlantic climate features humid summers, cold winters, and significant rainfall year-round. Himalayan granite's density and low porosity make it resistant to moisture damage, freeze-thaw cracking, and the moss or algae growth common in the Chesapeake Bay region.
The Baltimore and Washington D.C. metro area has some of the highest monument dealer prices in the country, often exceeding $2,500 for a flat granite marker. Families in Maryland increasingly turn to online vendors to save without compromising quality.
