Common questions or concerns about Slants with a base
-
When considering a slant, you have two options. You can get one with a base or you can get one without a base. Slants with a base cost a little bit more than ones without because you are paying for more granite. A slant with a base also allows you to have vases safe and out of the way of lawnmowers and trucks that go up and down the rows.
-
Compared to a flat stone, the slant gives you the ability to add letting to the back. Compared to a monument or a bench, you actually loose 4in to 6in in height. A slant on a base is also typically the same price as a monument or a bench.
-
Not really. All headstones get hard water get hard water deposits on them. Even with the angle of the slant they still get just as dirty as other headstones.
