Headstone lettering in Prescot is a specialist task performed by qualified stone masons. T. Lyon & Son have been operating since 1929. Our stone masons can provide the most beautiful hand carved inscriptions and cover them with any colour to suit your requirements. The most popular are silver or 23 and a half gold leaf but we can supply any type of design or colour you choose. Our inscriptions can also be sandblasted on the headstone. The designs that are chosen for the decoration of the headstone are integrated around the inscription which is the most important part of the stone.
In Prescot, headstone lettering is the most unique and personal part of the memorial as it puts into words the emotions you are feeling and leaves an everlasting legacy of your beloved family member. Our helpful and competent staff will advise you on the size and detail of the lettering and also aid you with compiling an inscription which is perfect for you. The designs for the stone are numerous and we can supply a variety of different shaped stones which you can personalise with added details or pictures. We can also design a stone to your own unique specifications. Should you have a special design in mind our stone mason will make a sketch and will manufacture a memorial stone especially for you.
Headstone lettering in Prescot is kept the same for second burials where inscriptions are added to an existing stone. This gives continuity to the look of the stone and keeps the original lettering and design. Stones can also be made for couples who wish to be buried together with one side left blank for the second burial and when needed the inscription will be completed. Stones can also be refurbished if they have been out in the weather for many years. The inscriptions can be made sharper and the letters can be re-coloured and the marks and damage removed.
