What Pennsylvania Families Should Know
Buying a Headstone in Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania families know stone. With the state's long history of granite quarrying and stone work, there is a deep appreciation here for quality material and craftsmanship. But that familiarity with the industry does not always translate to affordable prices. Local monument dealers across Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Allentown, and Scranton typically charge $2,000 or more for a flat granite marker.
SilkStone offers 28x16x3in flat granite markers starting at $899 with free custom engraving on every stone. Our Himalayan granite, quarried from the Himalayan mountains of Pakistan, is dense, mirror-polished, and built to handle everything Pennsylvania weather throws at it.
Cemetery regulations in Pennsylvania are governed at the municipal level, which means rules can differ from one township to the next. Even cemeteries within the same county may have different requirements for marker size, material, and foundation. This makes it especially important to check with your specific cemetery before ordering. Most Pennsylvania cemeteries do accept flat granite markers, and the 28x16x3in size is widely recognized.
Pennsylvania has a long history of granite and stone working, particularly in areas like Barre and the Lehigh Valley. Many families are familiar with granite quality and appreciate the density and polish of Himalayan granite.
Cemetery regulations in Pennsylvania are governed at the municipal level, meaning rules vary widely from one township to the next. Even neighboring cemeteries in the same county may have different marker requirements.
Pennsylvania freeze-thaw climate (with cold winters and wet springs) makes granite density especially important. Low-porosity granite resists water absorption and cracking better than softer stones.
