Tombstones in Lusikisiki
Our yard is on the main road at the entrance to Lusikisiki, and the stones standing in it are finished. You can walk through, read the price on each one, and have it installed within three days.
Prices
| Memorial | Installed price |
|---|---|
| Grave marker — name and dates | from R2,000 |
| Headstone and base | from R3,900 |
| Complete set — headstone, base, slab and kerbing | from R17,000 |
| Added inscription on an existing stone | on request |
| Grave restoration and re-levelling | on request |
Installation in and around Lusikisiki is included — no separate transport charge. The inscription is included too. If you want the reasoning behind these figures and what drives memorial pricing generally, we have written it out in full on what a tombstone costs in South Africa.
Why we keep finished stones on the yard
Almost every memorial sold in this part of the Eastern Cape is made to order somewhere else — Queenstown, Port Shepstone, Mthatha — and freighted in one stone at a time. That takes six to eight days before delivery, and rather longer over December when the big manufacturers close.
We work the other way around. We keep finished granite standing in the yard here in Lusikisiki, so there is nothing to wait for. A stone chosen off the yard is installed within three days of your deposit and approved inscription proof.
If you have travelled home and have only a few days, tell us when you need it standing. This is the situation our yard exists for. A stone ordered from out of town will not be finished before you fly back; one standing in our yard will be on the grave before you leave.
Coming to see us
14 Jacaranda Avenue, Lusikisiki, 4820 — on the main road at the town entrance. No appointment needed. You are welcome to walk through the yard on your own; nobody will follow you around. If you would rather talk before you travel, message us on WhatsApp and we will send photographs of the actual stones, or walk the yard with you on a video call.
We also install in Port St Johns, Flagstaff and Mthatha, and in the villages around all four towns.

How we work with families
A deposit secures the stone and starts the work; the balance is due on installation. Payment is by EFT or bank deposit. We will tell you the price before you ask for it, we will tell you the date it will be standing, and we will not encourage anyone to commit to more than they can comfortably carry.
If the ground on the grave has not settled yet — which takes six to twelve months after a burial — we will say so, and we will suggest a marker now and the full memorial once the ground is firm. If a stone we installed settles or shifts, tell us and we will come and re-level it.
Ask us about price, timing or wording. No obligation.
