  • Monument Foundations

    By: Adam Reeson
    Anyone who owns a house in Regina neighbourhoods like Whitmore Park or Douglas Park can confirm that foundations are very important. Countless homes in parts of the Queen City look OK from the outside, but major structural problems can be seen on the inside if the foundation is deteriorating.

  • Lest We Forget

    By: Adam Reeson
    On the eleventh hour, of the eleventh day, of the eleventh month - we pause to remember.

    As a monument builder, we wanted to take a moment to talk about Headstones for Veterans in Canada:

  • "Hey Adam. Thanks for everything you did to get everything done and finished for us. Impressive job. Thanks very much."
    Doug
    Nokomis, Saskatchewan
  • "I wanted a unique headstone for a unique person. I created a custom design with the guidance from Adam Reeson. This was all done via the Internet since I do not live in the province in which it was to be installed. Adam cheerfully assisted me through the process with numerous suggestions of ways to improve the appearance and to cut costs. All of my numerous questions were very quickly responded to without my feeling like I was imposing on him. The result is a unique, beautiful, and everlasting tribute of which I am very proud. Thank you Adam."

    Carole
    Regina, Saskatchewan
  • "Adam was recommended to me by a Regina funeral home. Adam was professional, sensitive and very prompt in his communications with me. As winter settled in he needed to delay the completion of the cleaning and refused my payment offer until the job was completed. Sadly, I lost my Mother in Regina over Christmas and again I reached out to Adam for a marker for her. He was so compassionate and understanding, taking care to listen and hear what my sister and myself wanted and lead us through this process. Even though I am not in Saskatchewan and due to the present situation have no ability to be there anytime soon Adam ensured the marker was created and laid the week before Mother's Day. He then sent pictures to me. So very thoughtful."
