Vases:
We have a large selection of matching granite vases for use on memorials. We can get vases in just about any color; square cut or turned round and polished. We also have more contemporary styles and a line of bronze vases and painted zinc vases for use in cemetery sections that require flat markers.
Bronze:
We have a large selection of bronze markers for use in cemeteries that require flat bronze markers as well as bronze attachments which can be mounted on granite memorials. We have a complete line of bronze dedication and commemorative plaques and we can make bronze statues and features in any size that you might want.
Mausoleums and Columbariums:
It has been our pleasure to erect several mausoleums and we are familiar with the newest designs and trends in the industry. Rock of Ages has an extensive line of pre-built buildings, all of which are covered by their unparalleled warranty. Between our consultants and the expert staff at Rock of Ages we can answer any questions that you may have.
Civic Memorials:
A few of the larger civic memorials that we have had the honor of working on are: the Colorado State Veteran's Memorial in front of the state capital, the Commerce City Veteran's Memorial, the Brighton Veteran's Memorial, the Colorado Fallen Firefighter's Memorial, and the Reverend Yoshitaka Tamai Memorial. We have also been involved in many smaller projects that we are equally proud of.
Signs:
We have created signs for many different uses including: schools, businesses, golf courses, public buildings, private residence address markers and any other place where you might want to have something more permanent and durable. These can be made out of granite, sandstone or concrete. We can also place bronze, plastic and aluminum letters on walls.
Marble Carvings:
We have hand-carved marble statues and a very affordable line of fabricated marble statuary. Statues and carvings can be used as additions to memorials, features at cemeteries and churches or decorations in your home or garden. Whatever the purpose we can help you find the one that is best suited for you.
Photos:
There are many different types of photographs available. The photos that are made of ceramic and porcelain are the best quality. The image on these photos are digitized and then glazed and fired right onto the surface of the material so that it is impervious to the elements. We also have black granite plaques with laser etched images. These images are very high quality but are strictly black and white. Images can also be etched right on the surface of the memorial but, in order for them to show up well, they must be done on pure black granite.
Cleaning:
We are very skilled at cleaning monuments. While not all staining can be removed from granite, most coatings and discolorations can be cleaned. Although some cleaning can be done yourself, many chemicals can damage granite if used improperly. There are many chemicals and cleaners on the market and we are knowledgeable about the ones that are the most effective and the correct methods for their use.
On-site lettering:
Many times there is a need to add something to a memorial after it is set in the cemetery. It may just need the death date added or you may want to add more design work or a completely new name and dates. In these cases, we have the ability to go to the cemetery and do the work on-site without removing the stone.
Sandblasting:
We have the ability to sandblast metal parts, wood and aluminum. For example, auto parts, patio furniture, truck beds and small trailers. We can blast anything that you might want to clean up for painting or just to clean up. We also have the ability to do on-site sandblasting on all different types of surfaces.
Monument Restoration:
We have done a lot of restoration work around the state. Most recently we handled all of the monument restoration work for the Ute cemetery restoration project in Aspen, Colorado. This involves everything from damage repair and cleaning to leveling and resetting the loose memorials.
