Common Questions
A mausoleum is an above-ground building for burial. Instead of being buried in the ground, your loved one is placed in an individual space (called a crypt) inside a granite or marble structure. It's a climate-controlled alternative to ground burial that protects from weather and makes visiting easier.
Mausoleum prices vary based on location within the structure (ground level vs. upper tiers), whether it's indoors or outdoors, and whether you choose a community or private mausoleum. Mausoleum crypts are often similar in price to traditional burial when you consider you don't need a vault or large monument. Call us at (704) 545-6101 for current pricing and availability.
Mausoleums offer protection from weather and groundwater. Visiting is easier—you don't have to kneel or bend down, and you're sheltered from rain and snow. There's no worry about flooding or muddy ground. In bad weather, you can still visit comfortably. Many people also appreciate having a permanent structure that won't sink or settle over time.
Yes, we build custom private family mausoleums. These are entirely for your family and can hold multiple generations. You can choose the design and have your family name on the front. Private mausoleums are a larger investment, but they provide a permanent place that keeps your family together for generations.
Yes, our indoor chapel mausoleums are climate-controlled, providing a comfortable environment for visitation year-round. Garden mausoleums are outdoor structures but are built with materials designed to withstand all weather conditions. All crypts are sealed to protect against the elements.
Yes. Companion crypts accommodate two people side-by-side, allowing spouses or partners to rest together. These are typically more affordable than purchasing two separate crypts and provide the comfort of unity. We also offer double-depth crypts where one person is placed above the other.
