Laser Engraving

With laser engraving, the designs for your custom headstone and memorial are virtually unlimited.

Laser engraving uses a laser to cut into the rock, removing the polished surface and exposing the lighter unpolished surface underneath. Laser etching can only be done only on black granite, which provides a high contrast, photographic image in the stone.  For our customers that specifically desire laser etching of pictures, we start this process by looking at the picture or pictures being considered, and advise our clients on the most suitable photos for this process.  Following this, we have our skilled photo technicians enhance the image and remove any possible defects prior to applying the image to your memorial.  Like sandblasting, laser etching can be used either exclusively for an entire memorial, placing all of the images, text, and pictures on the black granite piece, or in combination with other methods.
