Headstones & Memorials
In close consultation with clients, I design and make headstones, lawn-memorials, and commemorative bird-baths to honour your loved one appropriately.
My memorials reflect the life and character of the deceased, so are more meaningful and personal than those cut by machine to a standard design. My work is entirely hand-crafted and is priced according to size and complexity. As a rough guide, upright headstones cost from £2,500 and lawn memorials cost from £500. I take care of the necessary Diocesan paperwork, which can be daunting for the bereaved. When a commission is underway, I ask for a down-payment of half the estimated costs, and the balance once the memorial is complete.
'You have done a really wonderful job. It is full of character and creative flair and we love its glorious individuality. 'I know my parents would be absolutely delighted with it.' 'Thank you for doing such a beautiful job.' 'unique meticulous work that represents our crucial loss.'
I have renovated War Memorials in Dorset, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire and Norfolk. My work is sensitive and sympathetic to the natural ageing process of the stone. I never use harsh chemicals and will only remove lichens that completely obscure inscriptions.
I was the proud recipient of a Natural Stone Federation Award for my contribution to the renovation of Cromer War Memorial.
I have been a member of the National Association of Master Letter-Carvers (affiliated to N.A.M.M.) since 2003.
