Headstone & Bookset Installation

At Edgington Stone Memorials, we approach every headstone installation with a commitment to craftsmanship, precision, and personalisation. A headstone serves not only as a marker but also as a lasting tribute to a loved one’s life, and we ensure that each installation is carried out with the respect and care that it deserves.

The process begins with the careful transportation of the headstone, given the significant weight and the often delicate detailing of these pieces. We use specialized equipment and techniques to handle the headstone securely, ensuring it arrives at its destination unscathed.

Next, we focus on the groundwork. Proper preparation is vital to the stability and longevity of the headstone, and we employ time-tested methods to guarantee a solid foundation. This step ensures that the headstone remains upright and stable over time, regardless of environmental factors or ground movement.

The headstone installation itself is a precise task, requiring expert skills and attention to detail. We follow stringent guidelines to ensure the headstone is set at the correct angle and depth, and we double-check all measurements to ensure perfect alignment.

Personalisation plays a crucial role in the headstone installation process. Beyond the engraved name and dates, the headstone can bear personal inscriptions, quotes, or even imagery that reflects the life and personality of the deceased. We work closely with families to ensure these elements are incorporated to their exact specifications, creating a unique and meaningful tribute.

At Edgington Stone Memorials, we recognise that a headstone is more than a piece of stone. It is a place of remembrance, a testament to a life lived, and a focal point for mourning, memory, and love. As such, we ensure every headstone installation we undertake is done with the utmost care and respect, resulting in a lasting and beautiful memorial.
