Included in Subscription F.A.Q. Examples Tending Pricing

Caring for a memorial in San Antonio means dealing with the tough Central Texas climate, where hot, humid summers are quickly followed by seasonal downpours. These conditions create serious problems for headstones: constant heat stresses the stone, while high moisture encourages aggressive lichen and mold growth deep within the material. You can quickly see inscriptions fade and markers start to look neglected if care isn't consistent. Tending provides the exact professional care needed for the San Antonio region, delivering gentle, effective cleaning and structural checks year-round. We make sure your loved one’s memory stays vivid and protected, no matter how harsh the weather gets.

San Antonio is home to a mix of historic and modern cemeteries. The Tending service area covers all of the city’s major memorial parks and cemeteries.

Why Grave Care Matters Can I clean the monument myself?
You can, but be careful. Many household cleaners damage stone. We use pH-balanced, professional products that are safe for marble, granite, and bronze.
You can gently clean a headstone using a soft cloth or sponge and mild dish soap mixed with water. Avoid using harsh household cleaners, bleach, vinegar, or power washing, as these can permanently damage the stone’s surface or lettering.
For best results and long-term preservation, we recommend leaving cleaning to our professionally trained team, who use stone-safe solutions and techniques tailored to each material type.
