About Rock Solid Stone Engraving
From our quarry
to a stone that
means something.
For more than 30 years, we have worked hands-on with genuine natural stone—selecting it, designing for it, sandblasting it, and finishing each piece one at a time in Bath, New York. Rock Solid Stone Engraving has now been in business for 25 years.

A different beginning
The story starts
with the stone itself.
Many decorative stones begin as uniform manufactured blanks. Ours begin as real pieces of the earth, with natural edges, varied coloring, distinctive textures, and shapes that can never be duplicated exactly.
Quarrying our own stone gives us a connection to the material before any wording is added. We can look at each piece individually and decide what kind of design, message, and setting will allow it to look its best.
Genuine natural stone
From the quarry
Natural character
is not a defect.
It is the reason every finished piece feels personal. Shape, surface, color, thickness, and edge detail vary from stone to stone. We do not try to erase that character—we design around it.
- Stone selected for the wording and intended setting
- Layouts adjusted to the proportions of the individual piece
- Natural variation explained clearly before ordering
- Suitable pieces prepared for local pickup or nationwide shipping
Thirty years of hands-on work
Engraved deeply.
Finished carefully.
Every stage matters. The lettering must fit the stone, remain readable, and feel appropriate for the memory, home, garden, or entrance it represents.
Professionally sandblasted
The approved design is transferred and sandblasted into the surface rather than simply printed on top.
Finished and inspected
Lettering or artwork is paint-filled when appropriate, then the completed piece is checked before pickup or shipping.
A real person behind the work
You are not ordering
from a factory line.
A memorial stone, family name, address marker, or garden saying often carries more meaning than the customer initially knows how to explain. That is why questions are welcome.
We help you work through the wording, approximate size, artwork, placement, and material so the finished stone feels right—not merely finished.
