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.

Please contact us by email or telephone and our advisors will be happy to help. You can also add click the ‘Make Enquiry’ button or add your favourite products to a shortlist and send them to us for a quote. We can assist with all aspects of your order; from liaising with the cemetery, choosing the right memorial and inscription, adding bespoke etchings, memorial photoplaques and other grave decorations.

Once we have confirmed the final price we will ask for a 20% deposit in order to proceed with the order.  For more details about payment and timescales please see our ‘Ordering and Timescales’ page or our FAQs.

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.

TESTIMONIALS

I would highly recommend this company if you are looking for a headstone. The process of ordering was straight forward, they were efficient & responded quickly. The actual headstone itself is stunning. The craftsmanship in making the angel is outstanding. Very happy.

Hither Green Cemetery, Lewisham, London.

Thank you ever so much, your work and care has been impeccable. It has enabled the family and I to acquire some solace from this passing. You all are amazing people.

Went to see headstone. Love it. I did look around before I ordered it, and I still think there is nothing like it in the whole cemetery. Looks very classy with the silver lettering. Please pass on my thanks to those involved. Also, whoever erected it was very considerate to what was already there and replaced items respectfully. Already recommended your company to a lady who saw it and hasn’t had hers done yet. Thank you!

This was a custom memorial.
