How we work
Our process
We pride ourselves on our personal service, to ensure we fulfil your expectations, read about how our process works.
STEP ONE
Consultation
Once you have been in touch with your initial requirements, we will guide you towards choosing the style, colour and size of the memorial. We have a vast variety of styles in our range, however we also specialize in bespoke designs. No idea is too unique!
STEP TWO
Deposit
After confirming the memorial style, colour and size, we require a 50% deposit to secure the stones.
STEP Three
Plan
You then decide on what wording you would like on the memorial. This includes personalizing it with any epitaphs, artwork or photos. Our consultants are here to guide you through the entire process.
STEP FOUR
Proof
Our graphic designer creates a scaled proof showing the layout of your memorial, including all inscriptions and any artwork. You will have plenty of opportunity to review and make any alterations before confirming the proof. We want to ensure that you are completely happy.
STEP FIVE
Creation
Our Stonemasons take the digital design and lay it out on your selected memorial. We use various processes to create the final product, ready for installation.
STEP SIX
Installation/Delivery
Our team installs your memorial throughout the greater Taranaki region. Through partnerships we have developed with fellow stonemasons, we can complete installations anywhere in New Zealand. We regularly supply and ship throughout the Pacific Islands. Payment of final balance is due within 14 days post installation, or prior to dispatch.
Make it personal
At Headstone Warehouse we pride ourselves on our quality service and our bespoke, original headstone designs.
We have an extensive library of artwork, designs and epitaphs, and regularly create new designs to portray a person’s life and interests. Ask to see our library or discuss your ideas with us so we can provide a fitting tribute to your loved one.
Epitaphs can highlight personality traits or accomplishments in life. Popular epitaphs are taken from biblical scripture that illustrates a characteristic of their loved one. Some choose to write an epitaph detailing their loved one’s accomplishments. Maybe the person was a great doctor who selflessly gave his time tending to the sick, or one who was known for their community service.
