Mausoleums Dealer
in NJ

Above-ground tomb structures range from single-crypt lawn monuments to full walk-in family mausoleums. The defining characteristic of all above-ground burial is that the interment space sits at or above grade, rather than below ground. This design keeps the memorial visible and accessible at all times, and it holds personal meaning for families whose tradition or preference favors above-ground burial. Aboveground Memorials builds structures across this spectrum — small and dignified for single individuals, larger and more architectural for families who want a structure that will serve multiple generations. Every structure includes full design, engineering, and installation services, and every piece of granite is hand-carved in our Morris County, NJ workshop.

Granite Options

Granite is the material Aboveground Memorials recommends for above-ground tomb construction in New Jersey. Its density and crystalline structure resist the freeze-thaw cycle that is characteristic of the Northeast's climate, and it holds carved lettering with clarity across decades. We source American-made granite as well as select imported stones in colors ranging from classic gray to absolute black to red and blue varieties. The choice of granite color and finish affects both the visual character of the finished structure and the way carved elements read from a distance.

Custom Design Process

Custom design is the foundation of every Aboveground Memorials project. Our design team meets with families to understand the person being honored, the character of the cemetery setting, and the family's own aesthetic preferences. From that conversation we produce drawings showing the structure from multiple angles before any stone is cut. Revisions are part of the process. The final approved design goes to our Morris County workshop, where artisans hand-carve all lettering, imagery, and decorative details before the structure is prepared for installation.
