Flat Headstones Dealer & Designer in NJ

Flat headstones are a simple yet beautiful way to honor a loved one’s memory. At Da Vinci Gravestones & Monuments, we design and craft high-quality flat headstones that are both timeless and elegant. As a trusted name in New Jersey for over 80 years, we’re proud to help families create meaningful tributes that will last for generations.

Appearance of Flat Headstones

Flat headstones, sometimes called grave markers or lawn-level markers, are designed to sit flush with the ground. Their sleek, low-profile look blends naturally into the landscape while still providing a clear and lasting tribute. Flat headstones are usually rectangular and crafted from durable materials like granite or bronze, ensuring they can stand up to time and weather.

Why They Are Unique Compared with Other Monuments

Flat headstones are a popular choice for several reasons. They’re simple and elegant, offering a clean design that looks timeless. Many families also appreciate their affordability compared to larger headstones.

Because flat markers sit flush with the ground, they are easier to maintain and less likely to tilt or shift over time. Plus, many cemeteries require or prefer flat headstones for a consistent and uniform appearance, making them a practical option.

Even though flat headstones are simple in shape, they can be beautifully customized. There’s plenty of space for names, dates, special quotes, artwork, and other details that make the marker truly personal.

Types of Flat Headstones

At Da Vinci Gravestones & Monuments, we offer a variety of flat headstone options to suit your needs:

Single Flat Headstones are designed for one individual, providing a personal and meaningful memorial.

Companion Flat Headstones are perfect for couples or family members who want to be remembered together on a single marker.

Bronze Plaques offer a sophisticated alternative to granite. These elegant markers are often mounted on a granite base for extra durability and style.

Custom-Shaped Markers allow you to go beyond the traditional rectangle. Whether it’s a heart shape or another design, we can craft something unique to honor your loved one.

High-Quality Materials for Flat Headstones

We use only the best materials to ensure your flat headstone is beautiful, durable, and long-lasting.

Granite is a top choice because it’s incredibly strong and comes in a variety of colors, including black, gray, pink, and blue. It can also be polished, honed, or left with a natural finish for a look that matches your preferences.

Bronze adds a timeless and sophisticated touch. Often used for plaques, bronze markers can be personalized with detailed engravings, creating a stunning and elegant memorial.

Personalizing Your Flat Headstone

We believe every memorial should tell a story. That’s why we work closely with families to design flat headstones that are meaningful and unique.

You can personalize the headstone with inscriptions, such as names, dates, and quotes that reflect your loved one’s life. Adding artistic details—like religious symbols, floral carvings, or scenic images—makes the marker even more special. If you’d like, we can include etched portraits or images that capture important memories.

To make the design stand out even more, you can choose from decorative borders or patterns that add an elegant finishing touch.

Navigating Cemetery Rules

Cemeteries often have specific rules about the size, material, and design of flat headstones. You don’t have to worry about the details—we’ll handle all the approvals and paperwork to ensure your headstone meets the cemetery’s requirements.

Professional Installation and Maintenance

At Da Vinci Gravestones & Monuments, we don’t just design beautiful headstones—we also make sure they are properly installed and well-maintained.

Our team will securely place the flat headstone in the cemetery, ensuring its level and follows all guidelines. Over time, we can also help with maintenance, including cleaning services to remove dirt, moss, or buildup. If inscriptions start to fade, we offer refinishing to restore their clarity.
