Prices and guidance

What does a gravestone cost?

Edurus has a wide range of gravestones to suit all budgets. Whether the price is less important or you are looking for a cheap tombstone, we are sure that our range, quality and expertise are among the best you can find on the market.

Five tips when comparing prices for gravestones

  1. Do you pay per character to be engraved and is the price different if it is a painted or gilded text?
    At Edurus, all engraving on the front of the stone is included as long as it is with Edurus’ own fonts and designs. The price is the same regardless of the processing of the text (e.g. raised, recessed painted/gilded).
  2. Does the price depend on whether the stone is polished or cut and does the price differ depending on the choice of material/type of stone?
    At Edurus, any surface treatment of the stone is included and the price is the same regardless of the type of granite from Edurus’ standard range.
  3. Is there an administration fee?
    Edurus offers free advice throughout the ordering process and up to five free design proposals. Edurus’ assignment also includes applying for a permit for installation from the cemetery administration.
  4. Check if shipping and installation costs are included?
    Your quote from Edurus will include delivery and installation costs, which will be determined once we know which cemetery it is for. Factors that affect the price are the size of the stone and whether the cemetery requires a special installation method or whether their own staff installs the stone and then charges us or the customer separately. We otherwise have a fixed installation cost for the whole country.
  5. Keep in mind that a large, high-end tombstone with customized solutions such as frames and sculptures requires precision and experience.
    At Edurus, our customer advisors, designers, stone artists and installation staff work together with you, the end customer, to make the entire ordering process safe and secure. And as a leading supplier of gravestones to the largest funeral homes in the country, we have the capacity and experience to create unique solutions at low prices.

At Edurus there are no hidden fees. The price of the tombstone, any accessories, shipping and installation are presented in the total price of your quote. Advice and help with the design is always free of charge and the drawing we produce in our first contact is free and does not commit to buying a tombstone.

We divide our tombstones into three categories. A simple model becomes an affordable and cheap tombstone, the more work the stone needs, the more the tombstone costs. Designing a tombstone according to your own idea does not have to be a costly affair if the model itself is not that advanced. Edurus never compromises on quality; all tombstones, regardless of price, are made from the highest quality granite. Before a tombstone is packed for delivery, it goes through our rigorous quality control, all to ensure a beautiful and durable memorial at the cemetery.

Simple model, from 8900 kr

Our cheapest gravestones are rectangular, but not simple. The price of the stone always includes optional processing of the stone’s surface, which allows you to create contrasts and variations in the stone’s appearance. You can also choose to decorate the stone with one of Edurus’ free decorative motifs. Fine, high-quality gravestones should be available to everyone and a clean, simple stone is timeless. Less is more, as the saying goes.

Can have soft smooth lines, angular, rounded, symmetrical, or asymmetrical shapes. The majority of Edurus gravestones are in this category. Contact us if you want to know more or are interested in ordering a tombstone in this category.

Advanced model, from 13400 kr

Is as it sounds a bit more of a challenge. It can be about level differences, sculpted parts or that the stone is divided into different parts. We have discounted many of the advanced models in our standard range to be able to offer beautiful, fine gravestones and special creations at humane prices.

Edurus pricing system

We have developed a simple pricing system to make the process of ordering a tombstone easier. Click on a gravestone model from our range and you will immediately find out what a gravestone costs and what is included in the price*. You will find everything from cheap gravestones to slightly more expensive models, all very affordable.

Shipping and installation costs are added separately for each tombstone. This is partly because cemeteries around the country have different rules for how the installation should be done. The quote can be specified when we know which cemetery it applies to and what type of grave it is (urn or coffin).

If you choose from the Edurus range and selection is always included:

  • Your choice of granite type and finish
  • All text on the front of the stone in any font and finish
  • Decorations in any number in any finish

Optional extras and accessories are at extra cost:

  • Granite types in addition to the standard range
  • Characters other than the Latin alphabet, other fonts or signature
  • Decorations from own model, intarsia or sculptured decor
  • Accessories such as photos, frames, lanterns and decorations

*We always offer five free drawing proposals, after which an administrative fee of SEK 500/new drawing proposal is added to the quote.

Buying a tombstone on installments

When choosing a burial place to be adorned with a tombstone, the financial conditions vary. In cases where there are no funds in the estate, the question is sometimes raised as to whether it is possible to buy a tombstone on installments.  

In cooperation with Svea Bank AB, you can choose whether to pay for the stone directly by bank or card payment, 14-day invoice or apply for an installment payment of up to 36 months.  
 
Once the gravestone has been approved by the client, grave owner and cemetery administration and you have received your order confirmation, we will send out your invoice with a 20-day payment period. If you instead want to choose a payment method with Svea Bank AB, we will send you a link via email to Svea’s Checkout with information on how to pay. 
 
When you provide your personal information and accept Svea’s general terms and conditions, a credit check will first take place, after which you can choose a payment method.
