Granite Gallery Information

The overwhelming majority of grave markers in Minnesota are made of granite. The reasons for this are numerous. For starters, granite is not as prone to deterioration as are other materials such as marble. This is especially true under the harsh conditions presented by a typical Minnesota winter. The main reason for this is the water absorption rate of most granites – because water is allowed to escape during the freeze and thaw cycles of the seasons, cracking and other damage is less likely.

Additionally, granite is an ideal material when it comes to taking and holding a wide variety of different finishes and applications. This translates to a high ability to be customized.

Of course, granite markers are not your only choice when it comes to choosing a memorial. However, they do often represent the best choice. Feel free to give us a call today and learn more about what type of memorial is right for your needs.
