Testimonials from Families
Excellent rating
Based on 105 reviews When my brother passed, it was such a hard time for our family. On top of processing the news, we still had to handle all the arrangements. Looking for a headstone and learning that it could take up to a year at some places just didn’t sit right with me. I found Express Monument Company online and saw that their timeline was about 8 weeks. I was skeptical at first, but after sending just one email, they immediately made me feel comfortable and confident in trusting them with my brother’s headstone. The whole team—especially Jake—was amazing. They always responded to my emails quickly, answered every question I had, and kept me informed through the entire process. They truly understand how important this is for a grieving family, and their professionalism and compassion made all the difference. I would absolutely recommend Express Monument Company to anyone going through a similar situation. Thank you so much for making this such a smooth and meaningful experience for us. E T Jake and the staff are very professional, warm hearted, they know what people are going through under the circumstances, it is not easy when having to make choices and changing things and they help you all the way through and make you feel like you and your loved one really meant something like they knew them We thank them for doing so much and and helping us through the steps and they made sure the marker was delivered and and keep us posted on every step of the way 🙏 Thank you from the Rozuk Family on behalf of my nephew we lost Edward G Rozuk Jr 🙏 E R Jake at Express Monument was a pleasure to work with. He was understanding and kind, and stayed in close touch while helping me. He did a wonderful job getting the right font and design, even though I was trying to replicate a headstone that was almost 90 years old. Everything went smoothly and worked out great. Highly recommended! C H Prompt, friendl S We had the most beatiful headstone made for my mother. It exceeded our expectations. My dad was extremely happy with the headstone. R T My father passed and we wanted to make sure he had a unique, beautiful headstone. I reached out to Express Monument after doing some research because they were local and well reviewed. The whole team from start to end were very transparent, communicative, professional, yet also warm and caring. They made a beautiful custom headstone for my father based on the wishes of my family. The completion and delivery time were all relatively quick considering how long these things usually take. We are so grateful and highly recommend their services. Thank you to their whole team! T A 5 star service. It’s an art ❤️❤️❤️❤️ S L I wish to encourage anyone seeking a grave marker to contact Jake and Express Monument. The kind, helpful and timely service I received was outstanding. My mom's bronze needed to match my dad's marker who died 35 years earlier. The cemetery staff told me that was impossible and their estimate for a marker was $1000 more than the cost at Express Monument. Jake and his designer created the bronze marker with the California poppies motif that fulfilled my parents wishes. Now they truly rest in peace. Thank you Jake for managing a heartfelt business that supports families in grief for their loved ones. You are a gem. Sincerely, Margaret McNees M M I’m very pleased with the help I received from Express Monument. The headstone was beautifully made and exceeded my expectations. Jake and his team were very easy to communicate with and was very helpful with answering questions and requests. R A Very impressed with Express Monument Company across all levels of service. Highly recommend. S
