Monumental Masons Welcome to Manx Memorials We are a small family run firm based in the west of the island. We supply and install contemporary and traditional hand crafted memorial headstones

A memorial is a lasting tribute that acknowledges the life of your loved one. Let us help you to design a memorial that is every bit as special as that person. Memorials Designed To Your Requirements

We offer a large selection of Lawn Memorials, Cremation Stones, Kerb Sets, Scrolls, Vases and Urns. All memorials can be designed to meet your individual requirements. We can supply unique plaques, memorial features, headstones, and other monumental sculptures based on the design of your choice and in a range of sizes, materials and finishes. We are happy to quote for cleaning headstones, renewing concrete, re-gilding faded text and renewing chippings on existing graves. We are also able to quote for adding inscriptions onto existing headstones for additional family members. Sometimes there is not enough room on the headstone for extra names and we are happy to discuss alternatives such as the addition of an engraved plaque or book memorial for a kerbed grave, or a raised plinth with room for an inscription on which to sit the existing memorial. Our products can be seen in greater detail on our website http://manxmemorials.co.uk

Choosing a Memorial

Often it can involve several members of a family, some or all of whom may have differing views on the memorial itself, the content of the inscription and possibly the price. It is important therefore to buy from a company where your needs will be fully understood.

Our experience in the memorial business is your guarantee of a complete, caring and quality service.

About Our Memorials

Our standard memorial comes with a headstone size of 27" high, 21" wide and 3" thick. They come complete with base stone measuring 24" by 12" by 3". All memorials can be smaller or larger than the standard sizing above, up to a maximum permitted by the churchyard or authority. Most cemetery authorities restrict measurements to 4ft high by 3ft wide.

Prior to any order commencing we will send you a picture of your memorial with the design and inscription as it will appear for your approval. You will receive your order form with full cost, a customer confirmation form and a cemetery form. Only when you are ready to go ahead will a deposit be required and any cemetery fees due.

For more detailed information and prices please contact us.

The memorial will be fixed on a 460mm by 920mm concrete foundation slab with an approved ground anchor system when required by the church or cemetery authority.

Our Most Popular Memorials

These memorials are stock items and can usually be installed within two weeks of receiving the necessary permissions from the authorities. They are also the most universally accepted designs.

Cremation Memorials At Manx Memorials we both buy in and manufacture cremation memorials. Some churchyards have a specific type they insist upon and others are more flexible, we can help guide you through the options. If you would like to add a memorial plaque to an existing grave we will try to match the material as closely as we can to the original headstone so that it is in keeping with the whole grave. Please call us and arrange a visit if you would like more information.

Styles & Shapes

At Manx Memorials we will try to guide you through the enormous selection of memorial choices. Whilst the churchyards have rules and regulations limiting sizes and sometimes the shapes allowed, there is a large choice when it comes to materials, from granites and marbles, to limestones, slates and sandstones. We can tell you about each material and how it will last and look.

We will approach the authorities on your behalf to obtain permission for the memorial before ordering any special commissions.

Our aim is to provide you with exactly the right memorial to commemorate the loss of your loved one.

Additional Inscriptions & Renovations

At Manx Memorials we are happy to quote for cleaning headstones, renewing concrete, re-gilding faded text and renewing chippings on a grave to bring the graves back to a bright finish. We are also able to quote for adding inscriptions onto existing headstones for additional family members. Sometimes there is not enough room on the headstone for extra names and we are happy to discuss alternatives such as the addition of an engraved plaque or book memorial for a kerbed grave, or a raised plinth with room for an inscription on which to sit the existing memorial.

We will always visit the grave before giving a quotation for the work but this will be itemised and we are happy to discuss any alternatives. It is useful for you to provide us with a photograph of the stone and clear directions, or to agree to meet us at the churchyard to show us the family grave.

We will apply for permission from the Church Authorities on your behalf prior to doing any work, and will give you an estimate of the time it will take to complete. Additional inscriptions will usually be completed within a couple of weeks of receipt of permission unless we need to order in specially shaped stones.
