What New York Families Should Know
Buying a Headstone in New York
Buying a headstone in New York, especially in the New York City metro area, can be one of the most expensive memorial purchases in the country. Local monument dealers in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and Long Island frequently charge $2,500 or more for a flat granite marker. Upstate dealers in Buffalo, Rochester, and Syracuse tend to be slightly more affordable but still significantly above what families pay online.
SilkStone offers 28x16x3in flat granite markers starting at $899 with free custom engraving on every stone. We ship to every New York address via insured UPS Ground.
New York has some of the oldest cemeteries in the country, and their rules vary widely. New York City cemeteries tend to have strict specifications for marker size, material, and foundation type. Modern sections of historic cemeteries often accept flat granite markers alongside older upright monuments. Before ordering, always contact your cemetery to confirm they accept a 28x16x3in flat granite marker and to ask about any foundation or installation requirements.
