Albanese Monuments is a family-owned monument and headstone company in Westport, self-reported in business since 1954 and now run by the fifth generation of the family. Reviewers, many working with owner Jenn during the loss of a family member, repeatedly describe the staff as compassionate and patient in translating a family's wishes into a custom-designed stone, and several call the finished engraving beautiful; one reviewer noted the shop emailed a proof of the design before engraving so they could make a change. A 2024 review was less positive: a customer said the company changed the font on a family headstone without permission, leaving it inconsistent with the other names already on the stone. A 2011 news article and a memorial-park website both credit Albanese with engraving and restoration work in the region, including cleaning and restoring the patina on a historic granite monument. This is a monument and headstone company rather than a general masonry or home-improvement contractor.
“We have been servicing the community since 1954”
“with the engraving provided by Albanese Monuments of Westport”
“applied some good old fashioned elbow grease with a stiff-bristled brush and water to restore the patina to the Captain Paul Cuffe granite monument”
Well worth the wait. I wanted to be sure to give my sister what she deserved. The first monument place I visited didn't offer what I was looking for. Jenn and her team matched our vision and had a custom piece made. It took well over 5 months to arrive but the final product was what we imagined. She communicated with us and had the proper logistics needed to make this possible. Thank you Albanese Monuments <3
They are very considerate at a time of grief. They have all records and paper work ready for you when you get there. Excellent to deal with!
