Anything not listed above will be an extra cost.
The Gates of Heaven on this polished Blue Pearl Granite memorial give it a truly stunning look and the generously sized book allows ample space for your inscription. Additions and modifications can easily be made, as with all or our memorials.
Chippings, Cover Slabs and Soil: The central area of a kerbed memorial can be filled with soil, chippings or a stone cover slab. These need to be ordered separately and are not included in the price above, unless otherwise stated.
Lettering: The first 80 letters is free. Each letter/character beyond that (cut & gold leaf or painted black/silver/white) costs £1.95 on a new memorial in Granite, Marble, Portland Stone or Nabresina. Contact us for a quote if you require lead lettering. If you wish to add lettering to an existing memorial this needs to be quoted for on a case by case basis. For more information, please read our Useful Guide on the cost of adding an inscription to a headstone.
Burial Ground Fee: These are the fees charged by cemeteries and crematoria. They are not a standard price but if you contact us with the grave location details we will be able to find out for you. Or, if you prefer, you could call the cemetery or crematorium directly for this information.

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.
If your burial site is abroad we can prepare your memorial for export but you will need to make the shipping arrangements yourself. We are happy to liaise with your 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 can change the size, material, paint colours, letter style, vases, sandblasted designs...or even create a totally bespoke shape for you. Contact us for more information and a quote.
Get in touchYour little elves have been and placed the stone. My sister is so pleased with it and from what I could see from the photos, so am I.

It’s the little things that matter. Every member of staff that I had the pleasure to speak to far exceeded my expectations. Nothing was too much trouble, and the feeling of never being rushed, added to the overall good experience. We chose a pearl blue granite stone, which looks even better in reality. The finished result, including the cropping of photo to remove a hand and arm proved to be an excellent final touch, something we didn’t expect at all. So to say we are pleased with the overall service would be an understatement. MOD and the extended team provided an excellent service, and would highly recommend them.

Despite having to work through such a horrible time, they still managed to make a difficult process easier. I am particularly pleasure with the response times and our agents genuine kindness and patience when responding to my many emails!
