Q.  How much will my monument cost?
A.  As many factors, such as monument type, impact the cost of your monument we can not provide you with an exact dollar amount for the cost of your monument.  However, we guarantee that you will not find the monument you have chosen at a more affordable price.  Our ability to control the manufacturing cost allows us to offer you the highest quality monument at the lowest possible price.  We don’t pay the manufacturer, why should you?

Q. What payment options do you offer?
A. Kenngott Monument Company offers our families wholesale prices, with easy zero-interest financing. You may make these payments with cash, check, money order, all major credit cards accepted.

Q. Do I have to wait 6 months until I can memorialize my loved one?
A. In most cases, it is not necessary to wait 6 months until you can memorialize your loved one.  The reason it is not necessary to wait is because in most cases, the grave location of your loved one has a prepoured foundation.  A prepoured foundation makes it possible to place a monument at the grave of your loved one at any time.

Q.  How long will it take to complete my monument?
A.  Due to our own on premises monument production facility Kenngott Monument Company can complete your monument the same day you order it.  However, most often your monument will be completed and awaiting cemetery acceptance, typically in 2-3 weeks.

Q. What kind of monument will I have?
A. Cemetery Regulations often dictate the kind of monument that you may erect.  Kenngott Monument Company will assist you in designing a monument that meets both your needs and the requirements of the cemetery.

Q. Can my monument be in a language other than English?
A. Yes, Kenngott Monument Company can accommodate any wish you may have, including creating the monument in any language.

Q. What color will my monument be?
A. Kenngott Monument Company can create a monument for your loved one in the color of your choice.  Please view our gallery page to view a sample of colors.

Q. What designs can I place on my monument? Does placing a design on my monument cost extra?
A. Most monument companies charge a fee to place designs on a monument.  This is because they are charged a “design” fee from the manufacturer. Kenngott Monument Company has over 20,000 designs from which to choose, all of which are included in the cost of the monument free of charge. 

Q. How many words can I place on my monument?  Does it cost extra to add additional wording to my monument?
A. Most monument companies charge their families a “per letter fee”.  This fee is charged because they are charged a “per letter fee” by the manufacturer.  Kenngott Monument Company will place as many words on your monument as you wish, free of charge.  We can do this because we are the manufacturer. 

Q. Can I place a picture of my loved one on my monument?
A. Yes, Kenngott Monument Company offers many ways to include an image on your loved one’s monument.  Options range from a porcelain memorial photo, a bas relief, to a hand etching produced by our onsite artist.

Q. Are there any fees associated with placing my monument in a cemetery?
A. The cemetery will charge a fee for the installation of your chosen monument.  Most often, this fee is for the installation of a required foundation.  Kenngott Monument Company will discover this fee and submit the associated paper work on your behalf.  You may finance this fee through Kenngott Monument Company at zero-interest.
