Our Services
We are experts in the field of grave marker, headstone, tombstone and monument restoration and refurbishment. We have decades of experience, studied and researched old and new techniques and have special ‘family recipes’ to help restore and preserve pieces both cosmetically and structurally.
We have been involved in committees that have refurbished entire sections in both Mountain View and Christ Church cemeteries. We would be happy to discuss restoration and refurbishment options with your family, whether it be for a grave marker, headstone, gravestone, tombstone, bronze memorial or an upright monument.
Memorial Products & Services
Our memorials are all designed and handcrafted at our shop in Vancouver, British Columbia. This allows us to work closely with you in helping to create a designer monument, reflecting the individuality of the person whose life it commemorates.
Monumental grade is the highest grade of granite and must meet standards and requirements. We use only the best grade of granite from quarries both locally and globally, to ensure it will last for generations.
We offer memory portraits in a variety of sizes and shapes that can be placed on almost any size of grave marker, monument or boulder.
We also offer a wide range of custom made marble, granite, bronze, aluminum, and resin keepsake cremation urns, vases and memory boxes for ashes.

Gravestone & Headstone Inscriptions
When adding a new name, date or epitaph to an existing piece, we take a very close look at the letter style and will match is up as closely as possible, whether it was a hand cut style produced sixty years ago or a style created within the last few years. The piece is then completely restored to look like new again.
For the larger jobs, such as upright monuments, we will go out on site to the cemetery, during the warm, dry summer months to complete the new memorial inscription.
