Services and prices
Clear prices, nothing to pay in advance and photographs after every visit. Fresh flowers are included.
How often would you like me to visit?
Prices are per visit. Where a range is shown, the price depends on the size and condition of the grave and the flowers you choose. I will confirm the exact price before the first visit.
Monthly visits
12 a year, £35 to £45 a visit. The grave is looked after all year round and never gets the chance to become overgrown.
Read moreBi-monthly visits
6 a year, £45 to £55 a visit. A good balance for a grave that is easy to keep, with fresh flowers six times a year.
Read moreQuarterly visits
4 a year, from £55 a visit. One visit a season: spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Read moreSix-monthly or annual visit
£60 to £70 a visit. A thorough clean and tidy once or twice a year, often timed for an anniversary or before a family visit.

If I find something I cannot put right, such as a leaning headstone or damaged lettering, I will photograph it and let you know rather than leave it unsaid.

Arrange a visit for a relative who cannot get to the grave themselves. The photographs can go to them, to you or to both.

How often should the grave be visited?
Most families find four to six visits a year works best, though seasonal weather can mean more frequent care: rain, frost, fallen leaves, moss and bird droppings change the look of a grave within a few weeks. A grave with a kerb set and gravel needs less than a lawn grave that grows over in summer. If you are not sure, start with one visit and we will decide together.
How much does it cost?
Monthly visits are £35 to £45 each, bi-monthly visits £45 to £55, quarterly visits from £55 and a six-monthly or annual visit £60 to £70. Prices depend on the size of the headstone and how much care it needs; I give you a quote before any work begins. Fresh flowers are included in every visit.
How do I pay?
By bank transfer. There is no contract: you can book a one-off visit or regular visits, and change your mind whenever you like.
Can I change or stop the visits?
Yes, at any time. Just tell me. A plan is a promise that I will come, not a tie-in.
Can I arrange visits as a gift for someone?
Yes. A visit with fresh flowers on a birthday or at Christmas is a thoughtful present for a relative who cannot get to the grave themselves, and the photographs can go to them or to you.
Ready to book, or just want to ask?
Message me with the cemetery and I will give you a price for the grave itself, not a guess.
