About Us

HEADSTONES, PLAQUES AND MONUMENTS’

We have an extensive range of headstone and plaque designs and granite colours available to our families.

Alternatively you are welcome to talk to us about your own ideas and we can create a new memorial that is both unique and has special individual meaning to your family or loved one.

RESTORATION/RENOVATION OF GRAVESITES

As well as being able to help many families to create a new headstone or plaque we have also restored many existing family gravesites in various cemeteries including Wellington's historic Karori Cemetery, Bolton St Cemetery and Christ's Church Cemetery near Taita in Lower Hutt.

The below picture shows a fully renovated family headstone and granite enclosure we completed in black granite. Even just a thorough clean and re-letter can make a huge difference to a family grave.

We can visit a gravesite for you, assess what is required then offer our recommendations.

SOMETHING MEANINGFUL...

We do our best to create unique headstones and plaques and can translate any designs or images onto granite for you. We will meet with you to discuss your requirements and establish how best to represent your chosen image on the completed headstone or plaque.

LEAD LETTERING

The traditional lead lettering into marble is a service we offer. One facet of this service is that we can add new headstones or headstone panels  to older family gravesites and still keep the historical look of the plot.

SPECIAL REQUESTS...

Occasionally we get asked to do something a little different and we enjoy these requests especially when its something that will benefit the local community and its as worthwhile as the Wellington City Councils 'Central Park' project.
