Getting a foundation is especially important for large monuments and memorials. Even for smaller memorials, it is recommended to to get a foundation to prevent the memorial from sinking or leaning in the future. If an existing memorial is beginning to sink or lean, we offer the ability to reinstall the memorial on a foundation. A foundation will need to sit for about two weeks to dry before it will be ready for memorial setting.
Is a memorial sinking or tilting? Our crew are experts in leveling by using special technique to laser-line memorials. If you have multiple gravestones next to each other that are sinking, we can relevel each of the stones to a matching height.
Texas Gravestone Care wants to ensure safety for families visiting a gravesite. Because of this, we install all of our monuments with dowel pins to prevent the stone from falling off of the base. We spend a lot of time in the cemetery and notice how often families and young children play or rest near memorials. Accidents can happen, but we want to make sure we prevent them with quality installation technique that utilizes industrial dowel pins.
Gravestones, especially older memorials, can separate from the base and fall over. This is usually due to the sealant wearing out under various weather conditions. Our team will not only try to repair any damage to the memorial, but will reinstall it with reinforcement to make sure it stands as long as possible.
