Stoneguard Memorial Insurance. Website www.bridgeinsurance.com is a specialist in this type of insurance, with more than 35 years’ experience whose policies are underwritten by Royal & Sun Alliance Insurance Plc (RSA) for extra peace of mind. A memorial is a lasting tribute and clients may wish to consider insuring it against things like vehicle impact, mowers, falling trees, vandalism, and ground subsidence. Existing memorials can also be insured by StoneGuard, but this will need to take into account any damage present at the time of insuring and the up-to-date replacement cost. For a quote or any further information, please contact StoneGuard at 0800 634 7078 or email jason.kidd@bridgeinsurance.co.uk
