Grave Care is a scheme in which we help you with the ongoing tending to your loved one’s grave. We understand that, while we all have the best intentions, keeping up with grave maintenance can be challenging to integrate into your routine.

It is highly recommended that all memorials are insured against damage, vandalism and theft. Equally, it is advisable to have this in place from the moment the stone is fixed in the churchyard or cemetery. Griffiths Memorials are proud to be able to provide STONEGUARD® ‘All Risk’ Insurance policies to our customers, via Bridge Insurance Brokers and The Royal & Sun Alliance. Sadly, the accidental (and oftentimes deliberate) damage of memorials is all too common. While we can’t prevent the emotional upset this can cause, a robust insurance policy can remove financial woes caused by:
It is you, rather than the churchyard or cemetery management, who is responsible for the maintenance of your memorial. If it is left to become unsafe or dilapidated, steps may be taken to remove it, at your expense. Thus, a maintenance package and insurance policy can be invaluable.
Yes, our maintenance packages are fully tailorable and can include grass trimming on your plot, as well as cutting back nearby shrubs and trees.
