Can you make a Stone which is not in your brochure?

Yes, we can make stones to specific specifications or to match an existing stone that you may have already seen. Let us know what kind of stone you would like (pictures help if the stone already exists) and we can quote you for what you would like.

Can I see what my stone/inscription will look like before it is done?

Yes, we can make a 2D layout for you with the type of stone and/or inscription on it to give you an idea of how your stone will look.

I have seen a design that I would like on my stone, can this be done?

Yes, we already have many designs which can be put onto your stone, however if you have your own custom design/image that you would like we can etch it onto the stone provided we have an image of what you are looking for.

Do you install the memorial?

Yes, this is included in the price of the memorial.

Can my memorial be any material?

Unfortunately, some cemeteries/churchyards have rules and regulations of what materials can be used on their grounds. However we can advise you on what materials are best to use and where.

How big is one of your memorials?

In short, our memorials can be pretty much any size you would like them to be however, here we have a Size Guide so you can see how big the majority of our regular stone sizes are.

What is a Grave Owner?

A Grave Owner is the person who holds the deeds to the plot/lair. In most cases this will be the person who arranged the original burial with the local authorities.

How much are Cemetery Fees?

Cemetery Fees depend on the local Council. The fee charges can vary dependant on the type of memorial/renovation. The fee may also be dependant on whether or not the deceased was a resident of the local area. We are able to find out what local fees may be included in your purchase.

Do I need to gain permission from the Council for erecting a memorial?
