Uprights, markers, granite memorials, and cameos — designed by hand and installed with care. Iowa Valley Monument has been serving Linn County since 1980.
No appointment required. Walk the floor, run your hand along the stones, ask every question. No pressure — a local Cedar Rapids business that has been doing this for over 45 years.
A memorial stone is not a purchase. It is a record — cut in granite, built to outlast everyone in this room. We treat it that way, every time.
Iowa Valley Monument has stood at 2604 Williams Blvd. SW in Cedar Rapids since 1980 — the same address, the same phone number, the same commitment to handcrafted stone.
We are not a catalogue operation. Every monument is drawn by hand, approved by your family, and installed by our own crew. Cedar Rapids has trusted us for over 45 years, and we intend to keep earning that.
Read our story →No catalogue pieces — every stone is designed for one family, approved by them, and installed by our crew.
Iowa's freeze-thaw cycles demand a memorial material that does not crack, fade, or need replacing. Granite is that material — and we have been working with it for over 45 years.
We carry a full range of granite colors and finishes. Every stone is cut to your family's specifications, drawn and approved before a single cut is made, and installed by our own crew.
