Guide to Headstone Maintenance Services in Arlington

Is a rented pressure washer a good way to clean our Arlington headstone?

Not recommended. The stone may look brighter for a season, but the damage shows later as flaking on Arlington stones, as this explanation of pressure washing describes.

Our Arlington churchyard has colonial table tombs with moss on the brick. How do you clean those?

Gently and in stages. Moss is killed at the root and left to let go on its own, and loose capstones are photographed and reported, since some tombs are centuries old.

How will I know the crew actually cleaned the Arlington stone?

The job is not closed until the photos are uploaded, which leaves a record of the Arlington visit that any relative can look at later.

Dark stains and green film cover the marble at our Arlington cemetery under old oaks. Are they related?

Yes. Oak leaves leave brown tannin on marble, and Virginia's humid summers let mildew grow on top of the stain.

We ensure the grass is edged and weeds pulled at your Arlington family plot, sending you updates every visit.
