When can a memorial be erected on a grave? 
Elegant Memorials are Monumental Masons based in Longsight, Manchester offering a first class service since 2005. 
The combination of our experience and our investment in the latest technology enables us to blend traditional and modern skills, to offer our customers maximum choice at a competitive price. 
We offer a complete monumental service including additional inscriptions, cleaning and

renovation of old memorials and headstones and work with a select number of reputable suppliers who only use top quality materials. 

A headstone can usually be erected on a grave six months after the last interment has taken place, as the ground requires time to settle. If cremated remains are interred in a grave, a headstone may be fixed immediately, as the ground requires no settling period.
