Types of Headstones We Clean & Restore:

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.
Tombstone Repair and Restoration FAQ in Charles City
A storm left debris across our Charles City family plot. Does that get cleared too?
Standard during Iowa's storm season. Branches clear off Charles City, and if the stone shifted, that's logged as its own repair.
Packed dirt keeps baking onto our Charles City headstone every harvest season. Is that from nearby farm fields?
Very likely — field dust kicked up during harvest near Charles City settles onto stone and bakes on with the first rain, creating a crust that's tougher than ordinary dirt.
Is one cleaning enough for a Charles City plot, or does Iowa's climate wear that off fast?
The swing between Iowa summer and winter means one visit only ever covers half the problem — our guide to lichen and moss covers the other half. Ongoing care near Charles City handles both.
