What Rhode Island Families Should Know

Buying a Headstone in Rhode Island

Local monument dealers in Rhode Island 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 Rhode Island address via insured UPS Ground.

Rhode Island is the smallest state but has a high density of cemeteries, many dating back to colonial times. Modern sections of these historic cemeteries typically accept flat granite markers, and the 28x16x3in size is widely used across the state.

Rhode Island's coastal climate brings salt air, humid summers, and cold, wet winters. Himalayan granite's density and low porosity make it resistant to salt damage, moisture absorption, and freeze-thaw cracking.

Rhode Island cemetery regulations are set at the municipal level, and requirements can vary from one town to the next. Many communities allow families to purchase markers from any vendor, though installation or setting fees may apply.
