Freestanding columbariums
Granite structures for cemetery grounds, church courtyards, and memorial gardens. From a modest 24 niches to several hundred, built to grow in phases.
Columbariums
A dignified place for cremation memorials
More families choose cremation every year. A columbarium gives those families what a grave has always given: a permanent place to visit, to remember, and to belong.
New
The single-family personal columbarium
A compact above-ground niche your family owns at your own cemetery plot, with a glass door, an optional evening light, and foundation, approval, and installation handled by Reserve.
What we build
From a single niche to a memorial garden
We design, engineer, fabricate, and install columbariums across Ohio, and we stay involved until the last niche front is engraved.
Indoor niche walls
Niche systems for chapels, mausoleums, and church interiors, finished in granite, marble, or glass to suit the architecture around them.
Individual and companion niches
Single-urn and double-urn niches, so spouses and family members can rest together in one place.
Memorial gardens
Complete settings, not just structures: benches, walkways, plantings, and quiet places to sit and remember.
Niche personalization
Granite, glass, or bronze niche fronts with engraved names, dates, and emblems, plus ceramic photo portraits when families wish.
Church planning help
From the first committee meeting to dedication day: feasibility, design, fundraising guidance, and installation coordination.
For churches and parishes
A ministry as much as a structure
A church columbarium keeps departed members close to the congregation that loved them. It also asks a lot of a building committee: siting, engineering, approvals, funding, and a hundred small decisions. We have walked churches through all of it, and we are glad to carry the load.
- Feasibility and site planning that respects your grounds and architecture
- Designs reviewed with your board, vestry, or parish council
- Fundraising guidance, including niche pre-sales that often fund construction
- Phased construction, so you build for today and expand later
- Installation coordination with your contractors and our crews
- Guidance on records, pricing niches, and administering the columbarium over time
If your congregation is just beginning to ask the question, start with a conversation. We will give you honest numbers and a clear path, with no obligation. Reach out to begin.
How it works
Four steps from idea to dedication
Site visit
We walk the grounds with you, talk through capacity and placement, and give you a realistic picture of cost and timeline.
Design and engineering
Scaled drawings, granite selections, and engineered foundations, sized for your site and reviewed with your board or family.
Approval and funding
We help with cemetery or diocesan approvals, and for churches, a niche pre-sale plan that often funds the project itself.
Installation and dedication
We manage fabrication and installation, then help you plan a dedication that welcomes your community to the finished space.
For a single family niche or a private columbarium on a family plot, the process is simpler, and we will walk it with you just the same.
