FAQ’s

How soon after a burial can a memorial be ordered?

Just as soon as you wish, we can make an appointment to discuss arrangements with you at our office or at your home. You can also add the cost of a memorial to a pre-arranged funeral plan, paying for it in advance at today’s price.

Is permission needed to erect a memorial?

All councils and churches require a planning application, (we will submit one on your behalf) which must meet their current rules and byelaws. A Fee is payable to the council or church at time of application.

Do I need a foundation?

Headstones are naturally very heavy, so it is important that they are erected on a safe concrete base. The cost of foundation work and the erection of the memorial are included in our prices. Items such as Memorial vases or marble tablets which are placed on a grave do not need a foundation.
