“My Angela's headstone had not been cleaned in fifty years. I moved to Florida many years ago and I do visit San Diego, but never was able to get her headstone cleaned. My Angela is in the children's mausoleum chapel. I miss her every day. She was 5 years old when she passed. Well, im telling you after you guys cleaned up her headstone I didn't even remember what it had originally looked like. What a fabulous job! Everyone should use your company. It is truly beautiful. I can't wait for the rest of my family to see it. Thank you so much. Margaret ”

Headstone Cleaning and Restoration Guide in Portland

The white marble marker feels like loose sand and the name is disappearing.

Acid rain dissolves the calcium in old marble. Our Portland team cannot reverse it, but we can apply a stone consolidant that hardens the surface and stops the erosion.

Are your cleaning products safe for the cemetery grass?

Absolutely. The specialized chemistry we deploy in Portland breaks down safely into the soil without harming the local ecosystem or groundwater.

Why is the face of the concrete foundation flaking off near the road?

That is salt spalling from winter road maintenance in Portland. We wash the corrosive brine out of the rock pores and seal the open wound with a masonry mix.

My grandfather's headstone tipped completely over this spring in Portland.

That is severe frost heave. Pushing it upright won't work. Our Portland crew will pull the stone out and rebuild the footprint with angular gravel to properly drain the freezing water.
