Standard Features of Your Independence Maintenance Plan
-
Eco-Friendly Stone Restoration We avoid harsh pressure washing. Instead, we use biodegradable cleaners and soft bristle brushes to remove years of dirt and mildew, protecting the original finish of the monument. -
Gentle lettering repair We repaint or re-engrave faded inscriptions, ensuring every name and message remains clear and dignified. -
Comprehensive Site Care Our care extends to the ground around the stone. We clear away encroachment weeds and ensure the grass is neatly trimmed away from the base. -
Detailed Status Checks Our reports highlight any changes in the stone's condition, so you are always informed about the health of the memorial. -
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. -
Risk-Free Maintenance Don't let uninsured workers touch the stone. Our comprehensive coverage guarantees that your family's asset is safe in our hands.
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.
