Joseph Richmond and Son, Monumental Sculptors, were established in 1979 as a family monumental masonry firm and have been owned and operated by the same family ever since. Since that time we have built a reputation for quality in workmanship and memorial design using both traditional skills and values. We use a combination of traditional skills, passed from Father to Son, and the most up to date techniques to ensure that our memorials last as long as your memories.

There are many reasons to chose us to carry out your memorial work including:

We are full retail members of N.A.M.M. (The National Association of Memorial masons) and all of our work complies fully with the N.A.M.M. code of working practice.  

Our Craftsmen have achieved N.V.Q. level 2 in Monumental Masonry. This ensures a high level of consistency and quality in our work.

We are listed on the British Register of Accredited Memorial Masons. (B.R.A.M.M.)

All of our work is covered by the N.A.M.M. certificate of conformity scheme and is fully guaranteed.

We strive to provide excellent value for money and we try to ensure our prices are amongst the most competitive when materials are compared like for like.

We were awarded both First and Third places in the National Memorial Awareness Boards annual Awards for Most Original Memorial Design in 2006. In 2007 we were further honoured to be awarded Second place in the same contest. Achievements of which we are very proud. If you would like to discuss how we could help you to have your own unique memorial for your loved one, then please get in touch.
