How the
cleaning works

Careful work, close to the stone. Cleaning is done gently by hand, from the headstone to the base.

Cleaning services are offered during the spring, summer, and fall months.

  1. Two biological solution soakings

    The cleaning process begins with biological solution.

  2. Soft-bristle scrubbing

    The headstone and its base are scrubbed gently by hand.

  3. Never a power-washer

    Hand cleaning only, with attention to the stone.

  4. Before-and-after photographs

    If you'd like them, photographs are emailed to you once the work is complete.

“While cleaning prayers are sent up for you and your dearly departed.”

The Rathbun
tree

16 hours

“16 hours of scrubbing with toothbrush-size brushes uncovered this magnificent monument for W. W. Rathbun and his wife Julia. Tree monuments are one of my favorite discoveries in the cemeteries I have the opportunity to work in.”
