Fortunately, a few basic cleaning supplies and some elbow grease can dramatically improve the appearance of a cemetery tombstone, headstone, gravemarker or memorial. Among many causes, things such as sunlight, rain and snow, fluctuating temperatures, tree sap and falling leaves, bird droppings, plant growth, and even a cemetery’s irrigation system will generally impact the condition of your loved one’s memorial. Over time, exposure to the elements will cause tombstones, flat or slanted stone headstones, bronze memorial gravemarkers, memorial benches and other types of monuments to deteriorate.
Basic supplies and a little elbow grease can help restore many gravemarkers.
