Bespoke memorials
When it comes to finding a memorial, it’s important that what you choose is unique to the individual. From inscriptions and figures to vases and crosses, memorial companies will have a range of high-quality products available, or can handcraft a bespoke memorial that suits you. If you have a particular idea in mind, this can be brought to life in their workshop - perhaps the deceased loved football or had another interest that you want to incorporate into the design, whatever it is a memorial company can help.
Gravestone cleaning
Changing weather conditions, dirt, debris and general wear and tear can make headstones look older than they are. It can be difficult to know the right way to clean a headstone, as you don’t want to cause additional damage to the surface. However, many services can do this for you and restore the headstone or plaque to its former glory, giving you peace of mind and extending the longevity of the structure.
Restoration
If a deep clean is not enough to improve the condition of the headstone, renovation could be a better option. This involves having repairs done, restoring lettering, repainting and even replacing the entire thing for an updated version. Remember, the grave should be a place where you can find comfort in visiting your loved one and ensuring that it looks good will show your respect and encourage family and friends to visit more often.
