Care for a grave you can't get to as often as you'd like.

Gentle, insured headstone cleaning and grave care across Amble, Alnwick and the villages between. Moss and lichen lifted, lettering brought back, the plot left tidy — and photographs sent to you the same day.

How it works

  1. Get in touch

    A call or an email. I visit, look at the stone and send a written quote — no obligation.

  2. Permissions

    Where consent is needed, I arrange it with the church or the council before any work starts.

  3. The work

    Quiet, careful work with no acids or harsh chemicals. Before and after photos emailed the same day.

Flower arrangements

Arrangements made by Pamela McMannus can be placed at the grave as part of a visit, or on a date that matters to you. Just mention it when you get in touch.
