Types of Headstones We Clean & Restore:

  • Flush Marker (Granite or Bronze) A grave marker set level with the ground, made of granite or bronze, that doesn't rise above the surrounding grass.
  • Bevel/Hickey Marker Also called a hickey marker, this flat-based marker has a slightly raised, angled top edge for easier reading.
  • Slant Monument A marker with its inscribed face angled upward from a flat base, set at a slant rather than fully upright.
  • Upright Monument A traditional vertical headstone standing upright on a base, the most common style for older cemetery sections.
  • Ledger Marker A larger, often custom-designed memorial covering multiple burial plots for a family or group.
  • Custom or Multi-Plot Memorials Tailored maintenance for statues, obelisks, and family plots. We use specialized soft-bristle techniques to protect intricate carvings and delicate stone features.

Cleaning Cemetery Stones: Q&A in Goldstream

Are the cleaning chemicals you use around Goldstream safe for nearby salmon streams and groundwater?

That's a real consideration in a state built around its waterways. It's part of why we avoid bleach and harsh acids entirely — the products used on Goldstream stone break down safely.

Old iron fencing near our Goldstream plot is leaving rust streaks on the stone. Can those be removed?

Rust staining goes deeper than it looks after years of runoff from old ironwork near Goldstream plots. We use an acid-based rust remover built specifically to lift iron staining without harming the stone.

What's actually in the cleaning solution you use on Goldstream headstones?

It depends on the stain, but the baseline is a biodegradable, pH-neutral detergent safe for granite, marble, and bronze on any Goldstream marker. Anything stronger is chosen specifically for a stain that needs it, like rust.
