-
Deep Stain Removal & Care From industrial pollutants to natural lichen, we carefully strip away layers of buildup. We treat the stone to resist future growth and inspect the base for any structural issues. -
Inscription Recovery We remove the moss and dirt filling the letters, then re-apply pigment where needed to ensure the memorial tells its story clearly. -
Plot Hygiene & Safety We remove old flowers, fallen branches, and leaves. We also inspect the area for uneven ground or potential hazards to keeping the site safe. -
Remote Monitoring Even from miles away, you'll know the job is done. We upload verification photos and notes on the grave's condition to your private dashboard. -
Single Point of Contact No need to juggle calls. Your dedicated manager knows your family's needs and ensures the work is done right, every time. -
Professional Liability Safety We treat every grave with respect, backed by a $2,000,000 policy that protects against any accidental damage during restoration.
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.
Cemetery Clean Up & Site Care in Melrose Park
Mower tires left black rubber scuffs on our Melrose Park flush marker. Can you remove them?
Commercial landscapers frequently spin out and burn black rubber into flat Melrose Park markers. We apply a heavy citrus degreaser that melts the synthetic rubber instantly. The thick solvent removes the scuff without dulling the granite.
How do you extract thick pine tree sap from a Melrose Park headstone?
Midwestern pine trees drop highly acidic sap onto Melrose Park monuments. We deploy d-limonene citrus solvents that melt the hardened botanical resin without dulling the stone's factory polish.
Do you have the capacity to clean a large private mausoleum in Melrose Park?
We regularly treat full-size private vaults across Melrose Park. We use long-reach biological spray systems to safely eradicate black mold and algae from the highest granite rooflines down to the base.
