We offer both domestic and imported granite, a question that is most important to ask when placing your order because of timeframes.

We carry both import and domestic granite in stock which means your memorial can be placed a little quicker.


Our work is guaranteed, if you are not satisfied, we will do everything we can so that you are. We use a no pressure sales tactic just looking for the future that is fine also!

 "When you do it right the first time, you never have to go back the second time, so do it right." -Tim Stennett (founder)


 All memorials are prepped/sandblasted and installed at our West Kittanning location we employ several LOCAL craftsmen, many which has been with us for over 20+ years, that is why our motto is Our Family Serving Your Family.


When you leave our shop, you are entrusting us to order your memorial (if we do not have it in stock), order the cemetery required foundation, blast the memorial, and set the memorial. We do all sandblasting work in house, and we are the only local shop that does all work onsite. 


 "My Dad was one of the best in the business! I have learned so much from him over the years as well as the two people that worked side by side with him for many years Jerry and Cathy. I am so proud that he chose my husband Andrew and myself to fill those very large shoes. We are so excited to be a 2nd generation monument dealer. Our families we have served in the past can continue to expect the same stellar customer service experience they received in the past." -Jennifer Stennett-Johnson (Tim's daughter)
