Granite memorials for Sherwood Park families
We are about 25 minutes east across the river, which puts every cemetery serving Sherwood Park inside the area we deliver and install to. Families here are usually buying for Strathcona County's Sherwood Park Cemetery and the rural cemeteries at Ardrossan and North Cooking Lake, and each of those grounds has its own rules about memorial size, thickness and whether an upright is allowed at all. Call the shop
Most of Sherwood Park's cemetery sections are lawn-level, so flat granite markers are the norm rather than uprights. We confirm the section rules with Strathcona County before quoting, because the allowances differ between the older and newer parts of the grounds.
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 Sherwood Park, and a good number of Sherwood Park 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 Sherwood Park families work with us
We know the Sherwood Park cemeteries
We have set memorials at Strathcona County's Sherwood Park Cemetery and the rural cemeteries at Ardrossan and North Cooking Lake 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 Sherwood Park 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 Sherwood Park families usually choose
Almost everything we set in Sherwood Park is a flat granite marker, because Strathcona County's sections there are lawn-level. The usual order is a 24" × 12" single or a 36" × 18" companion in a dark granite, which keeps the lettering readable against a mown lawn. Families who want an upright generally end up at Ardrossan or one of the other county cemeteries, where the rules are different.
Sherwood Park questions
Asked by families here
Why can't I have an upright headstone in Sherwood Park?
Strathcona County lays out most of the Sherwood Park cemetery as lawn-level so maintenance equipment can pass over it. It is a grounds-keeping decision rather than anything about the memorial. If an upright matters to you, the county's rural cemeteries at Ardrossan and North Cooking Lake do allow them, and plots there are usually less expensive as well.
How long does delivery to Sherwood Park take?
Delivery adds nothing to the timeline — Sherwood Park is twenty-five minutes from the shop and inside the area we deliver and install to. What sets the date is fabrication (six to ten weeks for a flat marker from proof approval) and the county's permit and ground conditions. We schedule the setting with Strathcona County directly.
