Here we have a beautiful light grey granite headstone with raised lead lettering, the headstone was thoroughly cleaned and the lead letters repainted

This beautiful black granite headstone had an original gilded inscription which was badly weathered and almost gone in places, the family decided to freshen it up and changed the lettering to silver leaf and now the lettering really pops

Headstone cleaned and lettering repainted

Here we have a classic Yorkstone headstone which had a build up of lichen caused by the elements and we carefully cleaned and removed the debris and repainted the lettering, it was now ready for his dear wifes name to be added.

Marble headstone and corset before restoration work was done

Marble headstone cleaned, lead letters replaced and gravel weeded and raked

Here we have a wonderful example of an Italian marble memorial with curb-set, these memorials are really susceptible to the elements and very often turn black, the lettering is quite often lead and with thermal stress the lettering sometimes fall out. Here we have cleaned the headstone and curb, clearing the gravel and replacing the missing letters.
