We can install memorials in hundreds of cemeteries and crematoriums around the UK.

We can install memorials in ALL areas of England and Wales.
If the delivery address is outside of a 100 mile radius of Dunstable and the basic memorial price is under £1500, a charge of £180 will be added.
We will gladly crate-up and export memorials if your burial site is abroad. You will need to make the shipping arrangements yourself but we are happy to liaise with an agent about timings and prepare your memorial for collection.
There is a cost associated with this which depends on the shape and size of your memorial, so contact us for a quote once you have decided what you would like to order.
We currently estimate that orders for our standard designs will take approximately 4-5 months to manufacture & deliver.
This estimate begins from the date we have received both the cemetery or church permit and your second instalment rather than from the date you place your order. The process of obtaining a permit is carried out by us on your behalf and is generally straightforward. If you are having a more unusual style or size of memorial it can take longer to clarify the details with the cemetery and obtain permission which will affect the final delivery/fixing date.
We always endeavour to complete your order as quickly as possible but there are some factors over which have have no control, such as shipping and council response times. This means that some orders will take less than 4 or 5 months but others may take more. We will always keep you informed about the progress of your order.
If your order is for a non-standard memorial, it is very likely that the manufacturing & delivery time will be 4-6 months.
The best way to clean a marble headstone is with gentle care to avoid damaging the stone. Rinse the headstone with clean, lukewarm water to remove dirt and debris, then use a soft brush and soapy water to gently scrub the surface. Avoid using harsh chemicals as these are likely to cause more damage than good!
Aside from grave ornaments, you can also use different types of decorations to personalise a memorial. Fresh or artificial flowers are a common choice, allowing you to bring colour and beauty to the site. Candles or solar lights can provide a soft, comforting glow. Personal touches like engraved stones, photo plaques, or even wind chimes can also add a special, unique element to the memorial. Each decoration should reflect the memory and personality of the individual, creating a lasting tribute that feels personal and meaningful.
