Securing of cultural gravestones
Restoration with modern engineering for a stone that stands firm
Working with culturally and historically valuable environments requires sensitivity beyond standard installation. By using our patented L-support structures, we create a counterbalance beneath the ground. This enables us to secure even the most leaning historic gravestones:
We work in accordance with the Swedish National Heritage Board's principles of care and reversibility. We use concealed fixings that are not visible above ground, which preserves the historical appearance of the grave site. This often involves straightening stones that have been standing for over 100 years. We ensure they have a stable foundation without altering their character or risking damage to the stone.
Since tax funds (the church fee) are used to secure cultural graves, we see it as our responsibility to offer solutions that do not need to be redone every five years. Consequently, the money can be used for other important maintenance of our shared cultural heritage.

Usually this is due to ground frost or the ground around the foundation becoming soft. Norrvidinge's products eliminate this risk through a stable foundation.
