Madison Monuments understands how important it is to ensure your family member’s resting place remains clean and beautiful. When they notice the natural stone getting dingy, many people attempt to clean the stone themselves. Unfortunately, this can lead to more harm than good. The wrong cleaning agents can cause significant damage to the surface of the stone. We do not use harsh chemicals when cleaning gravestones and markers and work to conserve, rather than replace memorials, and monuments in historic cemeteries.

Cleaning Gravestones
It is important that cemetery managers ensure headstones are regularly cleaned. Weather, plant and animal life, and other outdoor elements present a particular challenge to many types of headstones. Many kinds of plants can cause moisture to be trapped on and under the monument’s surface, contributing to the deterioration of the stone. Moisture can then lead to biological growth such as algae, fungi, lichen, and mold. This kind of organic growth can dissolve concrete, limestone, marble, and sandstone with acid secretions.
Professional Headstone Cleaning And Maintenance
Before beginning the headstone cleaning process, Madison Monuments’ expert team performs an evaluation of the memorial. This evaluation determines the type of stone and the proper cleaning method and cleaning products to be used. Non-Ionic soaps such as D/2 biological solution, paired with clean water and soft-bristled brushes, are most commonly used by headstone cleaning professionals.
