Memorial Masons in Tadley
Overview
Memorials in Tadley go into the town's cemetery or one of its churchyards, and each has its own rules on size, stone and finish, so the first job for a mason is to ask which. The Church of England churchyards follow the diocesan regulations and need the vicar's approval; the cemetery has its own. Ask whether the mason is BRAMM or NAMM registered, whether the fixing is guaranteed, and how long the stone takes, since lettering is hand-finished and a good mason has a queue.

Before you book a memorial mason
A headstone has to satisfy the churchyard or cemetery as well as the family.
Are they registered with BRAMM or NAMM?
The British Register of Accredited Memorial Masons and the National Association of Memorial Masons both train and register fixers. Many cemeteries and most churchyards will only allow a registered mason to install a memorial.
Do they know the churchyard rules?
A Church of England churchyard has diocesan regulations on stone, size, colour and wording, and the vicar has to approve the design first. A local mason has done this many times.
Is the fixing guaranteed?
Memorials are ground-anchored to a British Standard and should come with a guarantee against movement. Ask how long.
