What we will do for you

• Century Monuments offers no obligation in-home consulting in the B.C. Lower Mainland. Our courteous consultants are experienced monument designers, not commissioned salespeople.
• After selecting your design, we will generate a computerized "mock-up", allowing you to see how the finished monument will look.
• Once the design has been approved, the monument will be custom manufactured to your specifications. Depending on the complexity of the design, this process may take from 2 to 8 weeks.
• Century Monuments will also look after all necessary Cemetery Permits and provide foundation and monument installation in the Lower Mainland.

Family of Merlyn Carter
Hay River, Northwest Territories

"Century Monuments were very helpful, efficient and most of all respectful and kind. We worked together and came up with a beautiful memorial. I would definitely recommend them to others."

Dawne Helfrich

"I contacted Century Monuments after being disappointed with the response from other companies. I was thrilled to find someone like Evie who was more than happy to take the design that I had in mind and go with it. Before I had even received a return phone call from the other companies Evie had not one but two drafts of stones in my e-mail inbox! She had worked with my design and created something that looked wonderful on paper and even better once it was installed. In no time at all the stone was completed and shipped up to its location. I would recommend Century Monuments to anyone (and have) as they make what is such an unpleasant time in life go much more smoothly and efficiently."

Tara Simsce

"I purchased a headstone from Century Monuments last year and was very very satisfied with the service from your staff, as well as very very satisfied with the headstone. I would recommend that if you are in need of a memorial you forget about all other businesses and just deal with Century Monuments. I found the staff of Century Monuments to be caring and sensitive to my needs. Any idea changes I had for the memorial were listened to and incorporated into the memorial. If any of my friends or family members require monuments, I eagerly promote Century Monuments."

A.W. Brown

"To deal with a death in the family is a big burden. To handle the myriad of details required completing the funeral and burial process adds to that burden. I have to say that dealing with Century Monuments was one of the easiest and most professional experiences in the entire process. Their understanding and wealth of information was able to speed the process along, so arranging a grave marker was one detail I didn’t have to dwell on."

Greg Patton

"Despite the long distance from east coast to west, working with Century Monuments was made easy by Evie, who was immediately in tune with the wishes of our family. She ably assisted us through the process of creating a timeless yet original memorial to our Mother."

Lynn Murray, family of Bunny Thornton-Trump.

"What a "daunting task"... I was asked to help design a marker for a "little one" that passed many years ago. After lying unmarked for years it was time to resolve this situation. We did look at some alternative marker providers and were very disappointed with the limited styles and more importantly the lack of any type of services other than arranging for the marker positioning at the cemetery. There had to be a better way.....

After contacting Century Monuments all that changed.....working with our rough ideas and sketches, Century Monuments provided outstanding services in helping us out with our design and our ideas towards the finished project. Changes were made along the way with ease, proofs were provided before each step for approval and once done they looked after the rest.....We had a Family presentation at the gravesite and all were extremely happy with the quality of the work. I would highly recommend Century Monuments to provide marker or monument services, if just for the quality customer services they provided us....were are very pleased."

Many Thanks
