Frequently Asked Questions About Headstones and Memorials
What is the average cost of a gravestone headstone
The costs of headstones in NZ vary greatly depending on your stone’s size, shape, and design requirements.
At Sanctuary Memorials, we understand that a gravestone headstone is a significant investment, so we offer all-inclusive pricing to help make your desired memorial achievable. When you enquire with us, we’ll provide you with a detailed quote that includes design consultation, material costs, craftsmanship, shipping, and installation.
How long does it take to create headstones for graves?
The time it takes to craft memorial stones in NZ, much like the cost, depends on factors like size and design complexity. We recommend anticipating at least 6-8 weeks for our stonemasons to create your headstone.
This timeframe allows us to source the highest-quality materials and complete our detailed carving work, ensuring that every detail of your memorial stone aligns with your expectations and our quality standards.
Please discuss any time-sensitive requirements during your consultation so that we can work together to find the best solution possible.
Can I add a second inscription to a headstone?
If you want to add a second inscription to honour another loved one who has passed, we can sensitively add additional inscriptions to our headstones in NZ and the Pacific. We will assess the existing stone and discuss the best approach for adding an inscription.
Our skilled craftsmen carefully match the original font style, size, and carving depth, ensuring the tombstone gravestone remains cohesive. This service is often requested for:
- Adding dates for a surviving spouse
- Including additional family members
- Adding new remembrance messages
- Updating or refreshing existing inscriptions
Do memorial stones in NZ require professional installation?
Proper installation of headstones for graves is essential to ensure safety, compliance with cemetery requirements, and long-term stability.
The team at Sanctuary Memorials can coordinate with cemeteries across New Zealand and the Pacific to ensure your tombstone gravestone is installed properly and meets all local requirements. We can handle all aspects of installation, including:
- Site foundation preparation
- Secure mounting techniques
- Compliance checks
- Final positioning and levelling
- Quality assurance inspection
