Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of using granite for headstones?

It’s no surprise that granite is such a popular choice for headstones:

  • Granite is incredibly durable and can withstand harsh weather conditions
  • It’s a versatile stone with many colours and finishes available
  • Designs and lettering etched onto granite won’t fade
  • Granite is a traditional material for headstones
  • Honed granite is allowed in most churchyards

What happens if someone else needs to be buried at a later date?

It is often the case that a couple will want to be interred in the same place. When this is the case we will lay out the lettering, designs and photos on your chosen memorial so that it leaves space for an additional inscription of similar size. A book memorial or triple heart memorial is a great way to achieve this.

What photos should you use for a grave photo plaque?

When choosing photos for a grave photoplaque, it’s important to use the best quality photo available. Avoid choosing images with filters or physical damage, as these will affect the translation of the image onto the stone. It’s best to choose images that aren’t too zoomed out and don’t have a busy, distracting background.

I thought i had already written a review but I obviously forgot. I am so so happy with my parents headstone that, even now, 18 months later, I still can't believe how lovely it is and how well made it is. We wanted to do our parents proud after my mum passed - and I believe we did.
Memorials of distinction are a wonderful company. From start to finish it was a seamless, easy, pleasant transaction. We were kept in the loop at all times regarding delivery, wording and design and installation. On the day it was installed i rushed down to have a look and just burst into tears. It really is a fantastic headstone that was so well made.
I would HIGHLY recommend this company. I was a bit nervous because we did everything on the phone and online but I wasnt disappointed at all.
Im sorry its so late but I just wanted to say thank you for everything. Your professionalism and your attention to detail and the standard of your work is one that you should be very proud of.
Once again - THANK YOU 😊

Could not be happier with the finished product of my mother memorial. Quality of polished granite, precision work in executing the detail of design -all perfect. Memorials of Distinction always patient and willing to accommodate a grieving families often disparate views on design. Took on liaison with the designated Cemetry for installation to relieve any further burden; gave us a timeline for sourcing the granite, production and fitting and met that timeline. And a good price for all inclusive. Memorials of Distinction have a satellite North London office where samples can be viewed and instruction agreed. A very very happy experience when it really mattered.

I can only echo the many other reviews... Memorials of Distinction are a pleasure to deal with.. nothing was too much trouble, they listen & they take real care. My request was for 2 stones, both customised (headstones reversed on one, plinths reversed on the other, different logos etc). And a really wonderful result.. thank you !
