When a memorial is to be renovated it is always
necessary for one of our experienced staff to
inspect the memorial before the work commences.
We are then able to compile a report of all the
work that will be needed in order to restore the
memorial to its original condition.
The following prices are, therefore, a guide
to the costs that may be involved. However, each
enquiry will be dealt with individually and priced
accordingly.
Our estimates are free of charge
and our clients are under no obligation to accept
them.

cleaned around using a sandblaster or scraper.

The methods used to create a cut, drilled and
lead filled letter mean it is often not possible
to replace just one or two letters. The process
involved may lead to the loosening or misshaping
of letters already present.
Re-fixing
Often the memorial was not fixed together using
dowels and upon inspection one of the vase posts
or side kerbs is loose. Where appropriate we
would quote for drilling and doweling the memorial
back together which should prevent it happening
again.
Memorial
Interiors
The centre of many kerbset memorials are often
filled with soil for planting. Families may
move away and it can become difficult for them
to maintain this area of the memorial. Our memorial
staff are able to excavate the existing centre
and lay any of the following in place of the
soil:
| Grey Granite Chippings

Maintenance
Where families have moved away or the upkeep of
a grave is physically too difficult, we offer
maintenance agreements on a 5 year contract basis.
The memorial is visited twice a year, chemically
cleaned, tidied around, levelled, joints re-pointed,
photographed and a report made out on the condition
of the memorial.
Please contact us if interested in taking out
a maintenance agreement.
