Kerbed Memorial Cover Slabs
Cover slabs are solid slabs of matching or contrasting stone which fit inside the space created by kerbs and are an alternative to soil or chippings.
Kerbed memorials include a line of stone which forms a rectangular edge covering the whole grave. This space this creates can be topped with a solid slab of matching or contrasting stone. You can also use cover slabs on smaller Garden Kerbs, these are small kerbs which can be added to most of our headstones and can often be installed in locations where full kerb memorials are not permitted. Call us with details of your grave site and we will be able to check whether they are allowed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a kerb set?
Kerbs are a line of stone which forms a rectangular edge covering the whole grave. This is usually made from the same stone as the headstone but can be changed for a contrasting material if preferred. The centre area can be filled with coloured glass chippings, soil or a cover slab according to your taste.
Can I add kerbs in front of a small/children's memorial?
Yes, we can put a small graveside surround called ‘Garden Kerbs’ around any headstone, providing the cemetery gives permission. We will be able to advise you on this and apply for a permit on your behalf.
Can you leave the centre of kerbing empty for us to fill it?
Yes, if you wanted to fill the kerbs with soil and plants or buy your own chippings, we can leave this area empty.
TESTIMONIALS
This is to say thank you to the whole team, from the staff answering the phone (was surprised how knowledgeable, efficient and helpful they were and I called more than once) to person responsible for design and layout (thank you so very much! Thank you for allowing me to make changes and let me see different options before making a final call. Seeing a final design on a finished product made my heart sing) and finally the craftsman who not only created a beautiful memorial that is just perfect but also took such care and precision in fixing it.
Thank you all very much!

The wait is over, and it was well worth every second. Memorials of Distinction delivered more than what the doctor ordered. Splendid piece of work. Art at its best. The whole extended family is impressed. I am sure my wife Engie in heaven is equally proud and happy of the finished product…talk of paying attention to detail. That’s what Engie was about. Well done and thank you guys.
