Honoring Legacies with Timeless Craftsmanship
Modern Monument Works is a family-owned and operated monument maker in Cleburne, Texas. We have served families here since 1883. Over more than 130 years, generations of local families have trusted us to help them honor the people they love.
We know you rarely come to us on an easy day. Choosing a memorial is personal, and it often comes at a time of loss. Our job is to make that process clear and gentle, and to create something that will stand for generations.
Our Mission
Our mission is to offer compassion and understanding to every family who walks through our doors. We listen first. Then we help you choose a memorial that reflects the life of your loved one and fits the wishes of your family.
As a small family business, our reputation in this community matters to us. We work hard to earn your trust, and we take the time to guide you through every choice without pressure.
What Sets Us Apart
Many monument companies sell memorials made somewhere else. We do things differently, and our customers notice.
Family Owned Since 1883
Generations of experience, rooted in Cleburne and Johnson County.
We Are the Maker
No middlemen or brokers. You work directly with our craftsmen.
Designed in Our Shop
All layout and design work happens in-house, which keeps prices fair.
New Work and Restoration
We make new memorials and bring aging headstones back to life.
Craftsmanship You Can See
Every lasting monument starts with thoughtful design. Our designers sit down with you to learn about your loved one, including their faith, hobbies, favorite places, and the words that mean the most to your family.
From there, our craftsmen bring the design to life in granite or bronze. We use sandblasting, shaped carving, sculpture, and etching to add portraits, scenes, and custom shapes. If you have a design in mind, we will work with you to create it. We also restore aging headstones, from recent markers to family stones that are generations old.
Serving Our Community and Veterans
Our work reaches beyond family plots. Churches, cemeteries, veterans' organizations, and historical societies across Johnson County look to us for guidance and unique designs.
We design and build memorials that honor those who served in the armed forces and as first responders. We also restore historic community monuments. Those who serve deserve recognition for their sacrifice, and we believe it should be carved in stone that lasts.
