All local authority cemeteries, Church of England churchyards and most other cemeteries and churchyards levy fees for memorial work. Charges are made for granting permission to install a new memorial, inscribed vase or tablet, as well as approving additional inscriptions on existing memorials. Usually no fee is charged for renovation work, e.g. cleaning or levelling a memorial.

We are familiar with all the relevant fees and can advise you of the costs. We also take care of the whole process of seeking approval for the proposed memorial work from the relevant authority.
