Investing in the Tombstone Jack™: Why It Pays Off

Writer: Tombstone Jack MarketingTombstone Jack Marketing


When considering an investment in the Tombstone Jack™, some might ask—What makes it worth the cost? The real question should be: How much is safety, efficiency, and long-term durability worth to you?


Cemetery restoration is about more than just lifting and leveling headstones. It’s about doing it safely, efficiently, and respectfully without the risks associated with heavy machinery. The Tombstone Jack™ is designed specifically for this work, offering unmatched precision, durability, and cost-effectiveness for cemetery caretakers, volunteers, and professionals.


1. Engineered for Strength and Longevity


The Tombstone Jack™ is built with high-strength materials to handle thousands of lifts over its lifetime. Unlike cheap or temporary tools, this system is designed to endure years of heavy use.

  • Lifts up to 12,000 lbs. with ease.

  • The heaviest component weighs only 32 lbs., making it easy to carry by hand or on a cart.

  • Made in America with high-quality materials for long-term and high volume work!


2. Faster, Safer, and More Efficient Than Traditional Methods


Traditional monument restoration often involves manual lifting, dangerous rigging setups, or expensive heavy equipment. The Tombstone Jack™ eliminates those risks by providing a controlled, precise lift that minimizes damage to monuments and surrounding areas.

  • One person can lift and level a monument in about 30 minutes, allowing multiple monument adjustments in a single day.

  • Unlike skid steers, cranes, or tripods, the Tombstone Jack™ allows maneuverability in tight spaces, reducing the risk of damaging nearby monuments.

  • Quiet operation makes it ideal for work in active cemeteries without disrupting ongoing services.


3. Saving Money Over Time


Many people assume hiring a professional or renting equipment is the only option—but those costs add up fast. With the Tombstone Jack™, you make a one-time investment that continues to provide value for years to come.

  • No need for costly heavy equipment rentals, nor highly trained individuals to drive and operate!

  • Eliminates labor costs associated with hiring lifting services.

  • Safer than cheap alternatives. 

  • Pays for itself over time by reducing damage-related expenses and rework. We have numerous customers that have leveled over 10,000 monuments and are looking forward to a new and productive 2025!


4. Versatility = More Value


One of the biggest advantages of the Tombstone Jack™ is its ability to handle a wide range of monument sizes and conditions.

  • Works on everything from small tablets and tombstones to monuments weighing up to 12,000 lbs.

  • Equipped with clamps (up to 3,000 lbs.) and lift feet (up to 12,000 lbs.) for maximum adaptability.

  • Designed to be used without requiring additional lifting devices like cranes or skid steers.

  • Used by both professionals and volunteers—in fact, 66% of Tombstone Jack™ users are senior male and female volunteers!



5. A Well-Maintained Tombstone Jack™ Can Last a Lifetime


With basic maintenance, the Tombstone Jack™ can last for decades.

  • Grease the jack screws after every 100 projects to maintain smooth operation.

  • Store properly and keep components clean to ensure long-term performance.

  • Rugged design withstands years of use, outlasting cheaper alternatives.

This is a one-time investment that continues to provide value year after year.
