Lawn Memorials & Headstones
Lawn memorials are most widely known as standard headstones, this is because they have been the most chosen style of headstone for many years. They have become known as lawn memorials because of their placement within sections of Cemeteries and Churchyards known as lawn sections. A lawn memorial or headstone comprises of a headpiece and base, both of which are fully customisable within the Cemetery or Churchyards rules and regulations.

Churchyard Memorials & Headstones
Churchyard Memorials are defined so by the material they are made from. Many Churchyards require headstones to have a natural finish, this can be achieved with granite if the surface is left in a honed state (not polished) however, it is more common to see the use of traditional materials such as York stone, Portland stone and slate. Other than the requirements of material finish, the design of the headstone can be done so in the same way a lawn memorial would be in most cases.

Re-Fixing & Straightening
From time to time memorials of all sizes can have the need to be straightened. This is usually due to soil settlement and requires very little adjustment. There are of course times when older fixing methods have become loose and the memorial needs further work. Watson Memorials can take care of all the re-fixing on site and update all the fixing methods as required.

Re-Painting & Re-Gilding
Due to memorials being exposed to all weather conditions, as well as in some cases collecting sap from trees and sediment in rain, there is often a time when the engraved lettering on the memorial, if painted or gilded, can become discoloured or even begin to chip away. Watson Memorials can certainly rejuvenate the lettering back to its original state.
