Grave and Memorial Maintenance
We know how important it is to you that your loved one’s final resting place is cared for, in a dignified and respectful manner.
We also know that sometimes it is not possible for you to visit, maybe due to your age, or the distance involved, or simply because of the demands and stresses of your lifestyle.
This means that too often graves become untidy, with memorials getting dirty and in some cases, even damaged.
So if you find it difficult to visit as often as you would like, you can take comfort in the knowledge that the grave of your loved one is being cared for and maintained in the dignified manner that their memories deserve.
We have a range of services, and can even tailor your requirements to mark special days with a visit on your behalf, maybe around a birthday or an anniversary. Just let us know what you require.
Our service is available within a 15 mile radius of Wincanton and we will email you photos after each visit
Each visit costs £35 if you would like us to place flowers or plants on your grave then these are at an additional cost
Each visit by one of our specialist grave carers includes the following general maintenance:
- Trimming of grass around headstone and edge of plot
- Removal of weeds
- Removal of all debris (old flowers, plants and other litter)
- Washing of memorial pot liners
- Cleaning of headstone/memorial.
- Photos will be supplied after each visit
Restoration and additional works
If we believe that the memorial or kerb edging requires some repairs and/or additional maintenance, we will provide you with detailed photographs and a written report. We can also provide you with a ‘no obligation’ quotation on any work that needs completing at subsequent visits, including the replacement of old or ‘lost’ grave vases, the renewal of stone/pebble/slate chippings, or any turfing or topsoil work. A specialist monumental mason would carry out any repairs that may be necessary to the memorial or the inscription.
