I see you added a darkening ink to highlight the name. Very nice. Wow! And you straightened the stone as well as clearing away the overgrown marigolds. I added the photo plaques.

Grave Care Questions in Sidney

Do you clean the back of the headstone, or just the front?

A complete cleaning means 360 degrees. Our Sidney teams treat every exposed surface of the granite, including the foundation pad.

What is a frost quake, and how did it break the concrete pad?

Severe freezes cause cryoseisms—sudden ground expansions that send a shockwave into the concrete, shattering it. We demolish the ruined pad and pour a deep, reinforced footing.

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

Plow trucks throw road salt that soaks into the masonry. When it crystallizes, it pops the surface off. We flush the active chlorides out and patch it with breathable mortar.
