Cemetery Clean Up & Monument Care in Artesia

Do government veterans' markers in Artesia need different cleaning?

Yes. New Mexico has national cemeteries at Santa Fe and Fort Bayard, so crews see government markers often.

Can lead-filled lettering on an old marble stone in Artesia be cleaned?

Yes, gently. Lead letters are soft metal set into stone, so they are washed with mild products and never scrubbed.

Why do flat markers in Artesia collect so much dirt and grass?

Because flat markers hold water on their surface, mildew and algae form quickly, and edging is needed to keep them visible.
