Restorations
Our ancestor’s monuments deserved to be preserved. It’s quite common to see them with tall headstones, carved artwork and iron fences. They are a true example of past craftsmanship and are full of character and are a tribute to our past.
Restorations
It’s not uncommon for families to discover whilst tracing their family history a monument in need of some maintenance or restoration.
The memorial may have a leaning, fallen or broken headstone, concrete top which has broken in, or the whole structure leaning and sinking to one side or area. It may just require a clean down or a re-gild of the inscription.
It is important to have a stonemason inspect the monument and give you an honest appraisal.
Restoration Before & After
Refurbishment
Every monument in need of refurbishment is unique.
It may require a full demolition and rebuild with new piers and reinforced concrete foundation.
Other times we can jack up and replace a pier under a corner of base.
Bendigo Stonemasons can build replica headstones with the original artwork design. Fences can be cleaned and painted
and missing parts replaced.
Additionally, broken concrete tops can be replaced along with granite stone chips without disruption to the memorial.
There is no better feeling than seeing an old memorial come back to its original beauty.
