Outdoor spaces and grounds: Website for cemetery grounds contractors
A website for cemetery grounds contractors that serves two audiences separately: managers who need the grounds maintained and bereaved families who want a grave looked after, each with their own explanation.
What visitors want to know from cemetery grounds contractors.
Cemetery grounds contractors deal with two completely different visitors. A manager of a municipal or church cemetery is looking for someone to keep paths, hedges, lawns and sections at an agreed standard. A bereaved family member is looking for someone to keep a parent's grave clean and put something in flower on it each spring. Many sites mix the two, with business language that puts off a grieving visitor and vague promises that tell a manager nothing. Families then phone with questions the site could have answered, and managers move on because they get no sense of working methods or how sections are handled.

Two entrances with their own tone
The site splits straight away into grounds maintenance for managers and grave care for families. The business side talks about maintenance standards, section layout and reporting. The family side is calm and personal in tone and explains in plain words what happens during a care visit.
Describe each service concretely
For families, each service states what is done: cleaning the headstone and surround, removing weeds, seasonal planting, topping up gravel. For managers, it explains how a round across the sections works, how funerals are taken into account and how completed work is reported back. Photos show real work, with care taken over names on stones.
Offer the right next step
A family member can request care by giving the name of the cemetery and where the grave is. A manager can ask for an introduction or a walk round the grounds. Both routes ask only what is needed for a first reply, so nobody has to fill in a long form at a difficult time.
Connected to your software.
Cemetery grounds contractors often have a plain site set up around tenders, with a contact address and a short list of services. Grave care is sometimes only offered through leaflets at the cemetery gate. We look at which texts and photos exist and who may approve them. Photos of graves are only used without legible names or with permission. The cemetery manager remains the owner of opening hours and regulations; the site links to those rather than copying them.
One site or two separate routes
One site with two clear entrances is easier to maintain and shows that you know the grounds where the grave lies. Two separate sites give each audience its own atmosphere, but mean twice the work and split your visibility in search. One site with a strong split on the home page usually works best.
Showing grave care prices or not
Families often want to know in advance what to expect, and a fixed yearly package is easy to describe. For grounds maintenance, the price depends on area, frequency and standard, and a figure on the site says little. You can choose clarity for families and a tailored approach for managers.
Naming cemeteries or not
Showing which cemeteries you work at helps a family searching for that place. It only works if the manager has no objection. A list of service areas without naming specific grounds is a safe alternative until agreements with managers are clear. Ask each manager before naming their grounds.

Read the storyWhat goes on the website.
We build a site with a clear split between grounds maintenance and grave care, a description of each service and two short enquiry routes. Before launch we try out together a family member searching on a phone for care of a grave in a village churchyard, and a parish council looking for a contractor for grounds with old, partly sunken grave sections. Pages per service area and guidance on seasonal planting are added once both routes run well.
View pricingHosting and careGood to know.
Explore pricing and optionsHow do we speak to families without sounding businesslike?
By writing briefly and calmly, without trade terms like section area or maintenance standard. Explain what happens on a visit and that a photo follows afterwards if they would like one. The business information for managers sits in another part of the site, so the two tones do not mix.
May we use photos of graves on the site?
Only if names are not legible or the grave owner has given permission. Detail shots often do the job, such as a cleaned surround or a freshly planted bed, as do overview photos of paths and hedges. That shows your craft without showing anyone's grave.
What should the site say to cemetery managers?
How you work with section layouts, how rounds are planned around funerals and opening hours, how work is reported back per section and how damage to memorials is passed on. A manager mainly wants to see that you understand the grounds and their sensitivity.
Can a family book care directly through the site?
A family can submit a request with the cemetery, where the grave is and the care they want. You confirm it, because you first need to check the grave can be found and whether there is anything special, such as a loose stone or arrangements made by the manager.
