Granite memorials for Ardrossan families
We are about 30 minutes east, which puts every cemetery serving Ardrossan inside the area we deliver and install to. Families here are usually buying for Ardrossan Cemetery and the Strathcona County grounds at North Cooking Lake and Josephburg, and each of those grounds has its own rules about memorial size, thickness and whether an upright is allowed at all. Call the shop
Ardrossan's cemetery is small and well kept by the county. Sections here allow uprights, which gives families more design freedom than most of Sherwood Park does.
Everything we make is cut and lettered on 181 Street in west Edmonton — solid granite, sandblasted by hand, never ordered in finished and resold. You are welcome to come and see the stone at full size before it goes out to Ardrossan, and a good number of Ardrossan families do exactly that. Ask for a quote
If you do not yet know what your section allows, that is the normal starting point and not a problem. Tell us the cemetery and the plot number and we will find out, in writing, before you make a single decision about granite or wording. There is no charge for that and no obligation attached to it.

Why us
Why Ardrossan families work with us
We know the Ardrossan cemeteries
We have set memorials at Ardrossan Cemetery and the Strathcona County grounds at North Cooking Lake and Josephburg and we know what each one accepts. Before we quote you anything we confirm your section's size, thickness and finish rules in writing with the cemetery.
Clear, itemised pricing
The memorial price covers the granite, the engraving and two designs, with any amount of front lettering in any language. Delivery and installation to Ardrossan are quoted separately and stated up front, alongside the cemetery's own permit fee — nothing appears at the end that was not on the quote.
A proof before anything is cut
You see a scaled drawing of the finished memorial and check every name, date and word on it. Proofs are free, we redraw as many times as needed, and nothing goes to the saw until you approve it.
The cemetery paperwork is ours
Permit applications, size approvals and foundation scheduling are handled by us. You should not have to learn how a cemetery permit works while you are grieving.
Locally
What Ardrossan families usually choose
Ardrossan is where Strathcona County families go when they want an upright, because the sections here permit them and much of Sherwood Park does not. It is a small, well-kept county cemetery with generous spacing, so base width is rarely a limiting factor. Single and companion uprights in dark granite are the usual order.
Ardrossan questions
Asked by families here
Can I have an upright monument at Ardrossan Cemetery?
Yes. Ardrossan permits uprights, which is the main reason Strathcona County families with their heart set on one end up here rather than in Sherwood Park. We will confirm the height and base allowance for your specific plot with the county before designing.
Is Ardrossan cheaper than Sherwood Park?
The memorial costs the same — it is the same granite and the same work. Plot and permit fees are set by Strathcona County and the rural cemeteries are often less expensive, but that is the county's pricing rather than ours. The cemetery office can tell you the current figures.
