FAQs

How long will it take to restore my headstone?

We have a target of a 2-4 week turnaround from when we receive the permit through to completing the job. During peak times or wet weather seasons, this turnaround may be a bit longer.

How long does any repainting work last?

We generally recommend that repainted lettering will last between 5-8 years — sometimes even longer! This is dependent on the time of year the stone has been painted and several environmental factors within the region of the cemetery and the headstone.

Can you replace gold lettering?

Yes! We can replace gold lettering, however it does come with an added cost. Please do reach out and we can put together a quote for the gold lettering. Alternatively, we can replace the gold lettering with a different option, like silver paint, (at no additional cost) if you prefer.
