What Texas Families Should Know
Buying a Headstone in Texas
Losing someone you love is hard enough without the stress of unexpected costs. If you have been quoted $2,000 or more for a flat headstone at a local Texas monument dealer, you are not alone. That is the standard markup families across Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, and Austin encounter when shopping locally.
SilkStone ships 28x16x3in flat granite markers directly to any Texas address starting at $599, and every stone includes free custom engraving and FREE insured shipping. No per-letter fees. No hidden charges. Just the listed price.
Texas does not require a waiting period before placing a headstone, though most cemeteries prefer that the ground settle for a few months after burial. Many Texas cemeteries, particularly in rural counties, also allow families to handle flat marker placement themselves. This makes the process of buying online and having it delivered straightforward for most Texas families.
Texas does not require a waiting period before a headstone can be placed after burial. However, most cemeteries ask that you wait until the ground has settled, which can take several months.
Many Texas cemeteries, especially in rural counties, allow families to handle marker placement themselves for flat markers. Always confirm with your specific cemetery before ordering.
Texas has no state sales tax on grave markers and monuments sold by monument dealers, which can make online purchasing more affordable compared to buying through a funeral home.
