How it Works with Fuller
Our customer starts by giving us information like cemetery name, number of spaces or lots, and number of names on the monument. Then, the design process can be started once the customer agrees upon the price of our inventory items.
For special order monuments, our company can customize the shape and finish of the headstone for the entire process. Our detailed drawing will ensure that the stone at the factory will be cut into the exact shape and size we need once our customers approve the design. For example, benches and cremation memorials are often requested as additions to monument designs.
Sandblasting, diamond hand etching, impact etching—we do all these personalization touches at our shop. Sandblasting is used to engrave names, dates, additional lettering, or to shape carve images such as a rose or praying hands, or an outlined drawing of a truck or flower in relief.
Image etching can transfer any portrait or scene provided by the customer to granite by etching the surface of it with diamond-tipped tools. Usually, a dark tone or smallest grain granite offers the best outcome. Our impact etching system can work on any color of granite since it also applies a diamond tip to etch directly into the monument, guaranteeing a bold and everlasting image.
Our owner, Jack Fuller Jr., is one of the few in our industry to do diamond hand etching, especially when the computerized image would be limited in reflecting the personal touch for a better result.
The possibilities are endless. A sculpted angel can be created to memorialize your loved ones, or the entire monument could be customized to a truck, piano, favorite animal, etc.
If you want something unique, as we mentioned earlier, we start with detailed drawings of any shape and provide steps of proof along the way of the finished product.
Porcelain pictures with various shapes, such as oval, rectangular, or heart-shaped are typically chosen to guarantee a bright and vivid image in its original form and are versatile on any color granite. Bronze vases, solar lights, and cremation memorials are also available.
