New headstones and bespoke memorials

We create bespoke memorials in a wide range of sizes and styles, tailored to suit your individual needs and wishes, from small cremation tablets to large, traditional kerb sets. Every memorial is crafted using high-quality materials and installed to the highest possible standards, and we apply to the cemetery or church for permission on your behalf.

Headstone cleaning, renovation and restoration

We specialise in memorial renovations, restoring older and weathered memorials to bring them back to their very best. In many cases we can make a memorial look almost as good as new, helping families preserve and care for an important, lasting tribute. We can also provide before-and-after photographs so you can see the transformation for yourself.

Additional inscriptions

We add new inscriptions to existing memorials, matching the existing inscription as closely as we possibly can. Depending on the memorial and the inscription, the carving can be done in our workshop or on site, and we can clean and refresh the original lettering at the same time.

Ashes interment services

We carry out ashes interments with care and respect. This includes preparing the interment, dressing and tidying the area to ensure it looks presentable, and leaving the plot clean and tidy once the work is complete.
