Custom granite headstones, grave markers, and monuments for North Texas families — cut and polished by the manufacturer in Wylie, not resold by a funeral home. 40+ granite colors. Flat markers from $1,204, installed.
Granite is the standard for permanent memorials in North Texas for one reason: it lasts. It resists the DFW summer heat, sudden freezes, hail, and decades of weather without fading, cracking, or losing its polish. A properly set granite headstone will look the same in fifty years as it does the day it is installed.
It also holds detail. Laser etching, hand-carved relief, sandblasted lettering, and ceramic portraits all read sharply on granite and stay legible for generations. That is why nearly every cemetery in the DFW area specifies granite for upright monuments.
Gifford Monument Works is the manufacturer — our Wylie, TX location is a direct extension of the Ada, Oklahoma yard producing granite memorials since 1936. When a Texas family calls us, they are talking to the people who actually cut and polish the stone.

Final price depends on size, granite color, engraving complexity, and any added options. Every quote is Not-to-Exceed — the number we give you is the ceiling, not the floor.
Every natural granite color is equally durable in the Texas climate, so the choice is about the look your family wants. These are the colors North Texas families ask for most:
Crisp white laser engraving, formal
Deep black with subtle flecks
Cool blue-gray, popular in DFW
Shimmering blue iridescence
Warm reddish-brown tone
Soft rose-gray, classic

"We compared three companies for my mother's granite headstone. The funeral home quoted $7,100. Gifford did the same monument, installed, for $4,300. Honest, on time, and the stone is beautiful."

"Gifford helped us pick a granite color and walked us through the design every step. The cemetery accepted it without any issue and it came in under $3,000."

"They explained the granite options, what drives cost up, and what would actually matter for us. Felt like we finally got the truth on pricing. Highly recommend."
