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.
Headstone Cleaning Services Q&A in Kodiak
We can't find our relative's flat marker in Kodiak — it might be completely grown over.
That happens often enough in Kodiak that we plan for it. Our crew works from cemetery records and a metal probe to locate a buried flat marker, then carefully clears the turf and moss without scratching the stone.
Do you handle cleaning for large private mausoleums in Kodiak, or just individual headstones?
Yes, mausoleum work is part of what we do, not a separate service. A Kodiak family mausoleum gets assessed for its materials — often granite, bronze, and glass together.
Our family's older Kodiak plot has an uneven, cracked slab. Could this trace back to the 1964 earthquake?
In parts of Southcentral Alaska, yes — the 1964 quake caused real ground subsidence in towns like Valdez and Seward, and some Kodiak cemetery ground never fully re-settled evenly. A cracked slab from that era needs a new footing, not a patch.
