City of Wolverhampton Council
Visitors have been assured cremations, services and burials will not be affected when chapels at a crematorium are refurbished this summer.
Work at the west and east chapels at Bushbury Crematorium in Wolverhampton will be carried out consecutively to cause minimum disruption, City of Wolverhampton Council said.
Each chapel will be closed for four weeks, starting with the west from 30 June until 25 July, followed by the east from 28 July until 22 August.
Work will not affect burials at Bushbury Cemetery.
New carpets and curtains will be installed at West Chapel, in addition to repainting and renovations to the windows and entrance floor.
East Chapel will get a new door and also be repainted, with new carpets and lights installed in the entrance hall.
Guttering will also be repaired or replaced at both chapels.
The flower terrace on the East Chapel will remain open for people who regularly place flowers overlooking the Garden of Remembrance.
The council said its bereavement services team would be available to answer questions or concerns.
Cabinet member for resident services Bhupinder Gakhal said the authority could "reassure families that this refurbishment work will improve the chapels for services and periods of reflection".
