Matos Monument Works helped me with something truly profound -- the creation of seven headstones for seven family members, all at once, for my Celebration of Life. Yes, seven. It's an experience I hope no one ever has to go through, but I will be forever grateful to the Matos family for the compassion, care, and professionalism they showed me throughout the entire process. They guided me emotionally and physically through every step, easing what could have been an overwhelming journey. Their craftsmanship was absolutely beautiful -- each headstone a work of art, made with love and respect. This was not just business; it was personal, heartfelt, and deeply meaningful. The Matos family treated my loved ones' memories as if they were their own, and for that, I am eternally thankful. read more

Mattos Monument is by far the best around. I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional service their team provided to my husband and myself! After my Dad passed away in 2020, it was very important to us that his monument be of the highest quality. Over the years, the weather began to affect the paint over the granite. We decided to contacted their team recently hoping for a touch-up. Thankfully they guaranteed that the work would be finished in time for my father's birthday, Mattos Monuments delivered on that promise! My Dad's monument looks absolutely incredible--truly matching the first day it was installed. Words cannot describe how thankful we are for your craftsmanship and care with my Dads headstone. I highly recommend Mattos Monuments! read more

I had a little bit of sticker shock at first because I had no idea how much a grave marker would cost. But Mattos made it very easy to select designs and place an order. The flat marker I selected was produced rather quickly and the personalization was perfect. They reached out to the cemetery immediately upon completion to set up installation. The service they provided was efficient and professional. Overall very satisfied. read more

Great people to work with. They are very caring and understanding. They were extremely helpful during the design of the headstone. Their software shows you exactly what the headstone will look like before you order it. That way, there are no surprises when you see it once it is finished. I am very happy to recommend them. read more

The team at Mattos monuments is knowledgeable and kind it's been a privilege to work with them!

Working with Mattos Monuments was a wonderful experience. All members of the staff were extremely responsive and helpful in assisting me with two monuments. They worked several designs for me, and were very flexible and easy to work with and suggested some options for me.

Would not hesitate to recommend this Company. read more

I recommend Mattos Monument. Ryan was very patient with me as I was very particular about the Chinese character fonts on my sister's monument. He revised the stencil when I pointed out that the characters appeared thin and did not match what I had ordered. After the stone was fabricated, Ryan expedited the engraving and installation process so that I could show the site photo to my siblings in Asia during my upcoming trip. Ryan handled my mother-in-law's monument a few years ago. He was highly experienced and provided us with valuable advice tailored to our needs and preferences. The entire Mattos team was professional. I highly recommend them. read more

I found Mattos Monuments on Yelp, and so glad we went with them. My father's grave marker turned out even better than we were expecting and looks wonderful. We met with Ryan on January 18, and the marker was installed on 3/21/25. Ryan was easy to work with while we went and back and forth with changes and questions. I'm so glad I didn't just go with the grave marker offerings provided by the cemetery, as their offerings and designs were much less extensive and prices were much higher. Mattos Monuments had a wide selection of materials and designs and the option to completely customize the marker. Ryan and his team made a difficult task into a smooth, seamless experience. Thank you, Ryan and Ali! read more

They did an outstanding job of creating my wife's headstone. It looks exactly as the mock-up . It's really beautiful. However, they were really hesitant when I requested to be at the cemetery when they set the headstone. This will be scheduled for the next few weeks so I'll update this review at that time. I hope I don't need their services again too soon . . . lol read more

Outstanding service! The staff at Mattos listened to our design vision and produced a headstone even more beautiful than we envisioned. After our first visit with Ryan, we knew that we chose the right company to create our Mother's memorial. read more

I've looked around for best deals and varieties of tombstone for my family until I found this place! Here the service was awesome the personal was even better. They understood my needs and made sure all was done accordingly and in less time than expected. The quality was excellent and price was reasonable. I definitely recommend this place. Ali and Ryan are both excellent people who really care about their customers. read more

Their customer service is garbage. Spoke to Ali, then she dropped off the map. Turned out she was out of town, but no one picked up the ball to let me know. Then no return emails, so I called and spoke with someone else. Then he never returned an emails. Finally Ali tells me my emails have been going in a spam folder. Ok. Turns out the prices she quoted me did not include everything. Why would you quote a price that was not complete? When she did email it was brief but not comprehensive in regard to my questions. Not a good communicator. They might do great work, but I won't find out because they won't be getting my business. read more

I used Mattos for my Mothers headstone. They were kind, professional and communicated very well. I highly recommended them.

To all of the staff and owners! Thank you for helping us choose the best headstone... for my Mom and Dad! You're the best!

This is a well over due review for the Mattos Family. Words cannot express my forever gratitude and appreciation for the work they did on my parents head stone. Truly making a very difficult process extremely easy, painless, and their guidance was incredible. My mother had very specific wants for her final resting area and without hesitation, Ryan was able to work with me to accommodate those dreams to reality. Not only that, he assisted in making the design better than I had originally came up with. The entire team was very kind and understanding through this very hard process, I highly recommend them for anyone who needs similar work done. Please see the attached photos as they dont capture the true beauty the Mattos Family has in my parents final resting place. THANK YOU! read more

The needs of my family were not the norm. My Grandmother decided she wanted to be cremated and have her urn placed in the same plot as her Grandmother. This particular headstone was almost 60 years old and we needed to be creative to ensure we were able to memorialize my Grandmother on the headstone. The staff at Mattos Monuments came up with a creative way to help us. Not only were they able to add my Grandmother's info and photo to a 57 year old headstone, they updated the original headstone so it looked practically new! They were delicate to ensure no damage was caused and the design was more beautiful than we could have imagined! This is absolutely the place to go when you need a little help to perfect remembering your loved one. Also, you can't beat supporting a small family owned local Hayward business. read more

It was my first time in my life I need it this service for my dad who passed away last year in thanksgiving's night . The community helped me to get the grave but I was extremely thoughtless how to get the headstone done . I reached out a couple of places, their prices were ridiculous, they said they well get back to me but never followed up. I reached out yo Matteo's Monuments and god lucky to work with Ryne, I would say I have the best experience with him. Ryne was an amazing individual very helpfully professional and understanding. The design I provide was in a different language than English but he made it extremely amazing he went above and beyond to make sure everything is accurate and I would say the attention to detail he put in this job was truly outstanding. More than anything else I wanted to have the headstone installed before my dad's first year anniversary. Ryne stayed In his promised and delivered it in a timely manner which I am very great full and happy . My family visited my dad's grave yesterday and they were all amazed with his beautiful headstone. I wanted to Thank you from bottom of my heart for the service you provide. I would refer you with any friend and family needed this service in future. Thanks again !!!!! read more

When my mother recently passed away unexpectedly, I was thrown into making arrangements for her. While we had talked a little bit about her desires, we never got to the point of choosing a burial location, or what decisions would need to be made. My brothers were in town for her final days and we rushed to schedule a service and burial so they could get back to their families and their jobs. Mostly, this meant taking what was available and going with it. The burial marker/headstone was pushed aside as something to do later. Thankfully, when I was ready, I called Mattos and got to speak with Ryan. He was so kind to meet me at his office on a weekend. He talked to me about the different stone options, pricing and how the engraving is done. He narrowed down the overwhelming number of choices to the handful that met our needs and priorities and we walked out knowing we were in great hands. We received a proof to approve and shortly after got a photo of the finished stone. Ali was on the case sending updates and coordinating with the cemetery. I worried about nothing. The family at Mattos takes excellent care of the families who come to them. Thanks to Ryan and Ali for your help and support! read more

Ali was super helpful and patient through this very emotional process. Can't thank her enough for the support and ensuring my father's stone looked exactly how we requested it to be. Highly recommend. read more

I commissioned a grave marker with Mattos and couldn't be more pleased with the quality of their work and detail. They created the perfect tribute to my family member and were very communicative throughout the process. I worked with Ali, Ryan and Ken. Top notch service and highly recommend to anyone in need. read more

Very good service in person and online. Ryan is the best ! I live spending time at the business and online service is great.

Wow, I am just amazed at how great the service Ryan gave me. Losing a loved one is depressing on its own, but Ryan really turned that around for me to make this such a great experience that made me very happy and excited to see the results of the headstone and ledger I ordered. The whole entire process was so personable and he made sure that all my wants and needs would be possible. From the get-go, he was already very responsive through email, which is something you don't ever get anywhere else, and meeting him in person to go over all details I wanted was even better. There's a reason why they have 5 stars here, and it is because they care about their customers. They understand that this is an emotional process, and they are here to help, and not make money off those who are grieving. Mattos has definitely earned a lifelong customer, and will make sure the rest of my family members and friends use them for times like these. read more

I can't say enough amazing things about Mattos Monuments! It's a family owned business and it's apparent that they care about what they do for grieving families who want to honor their loved ones! I had Ali Vega as my representative and she was just so kind, patient and honest. I never felt pressured to purchase, but they have such an amazing inventory I just could not go anywhere else! I told Ali what I want and she made it come to life! Every detail was included and I can say that my brother is truly honored with the memorial we purchased from Mattos Monuments! I highly recommend this company! Great value, great products and overall just a great company with great people! read more

There are not enough words to express my gratitude to Ryan, Ali and the team at Bras&Mattos Monument. I laid my husband to rest on July 2020. A couple months after his burial I started to seek for places to start on the process of his headstone. As always, I utilized Yelp and came across this family owned business with highly rated reviews. I was a bit nervous as the beginning of his funeral arrangements were a bit rocky with finding a funeral home, cemetery etc.. and just dealing with another business brought mixed emotions. I contacted them and started working with Ryan and from that day it was smooth sailing. If I could paint a picture of the countless correspondence between Ryan and I during the designing process, it would probably be a whole gallery. There were times I was indecisive and times I just changed every single thing from the day before. However, Ryan was very patient, kind and sincere the entire time (a whole YEAR). Fast forward his stone is ready and that morning I was so anxious to see it as it's been a year of designing it with Ryan. My daughter and I were greeted by Ali whom is just a sweetheart with a presence that is so genuine. She took us to the stone and no words... they had captured the beautiful soul of my husband with every inch of detail. Something our daughter will always have to remember his legacy. I highly recommend Ryan and his team and grateful I trusted them in this intimate process. read more

In business since 1897, this family-run business is the only place I will go for custom work of exceptional quality and reasonable pricing. Whether you wish to memorialize a family member or a beloved pet, Ali and her team will not disappoint. read more

It's not easy buying a headstone for someone you love and have lost. I lost my 24 year old son and I was dreading the process of getting a head stone. When I walked into Mattos, Ryan greeted me with a warm smile. He was friendly, empathetic and extremely knowledgeable. He also had great design ideas. It may sound odd to say that I had a great experience picking out a headstone, but because of Ryan I actually did. Ryan worked with me to ensure the headstone was exactly what I had hoped for and was completed on time. His suggestions made the headstone something I will be proud of forever. My Godmother passed recently and I am going back to Ryan at Mattos to purchase the headstone. I can't recommend Mattos and Ryan highly enough. read more
