Memorial Cleaning & Restoration Service
Our memorial cleaning and restoration service is designed to respectfully restore the appearance of a loved one’s memorial while preserving the integrity of the stone. Over time, headstones naturally become affected by dirt, biological growth, weathering, and fading lettering. Our trained technicians carefully clean and restore memorials in situ, using specialist, non-abrasive methods appropriate to the stone type and condition. Each memorial is assessed individually to ensure the correct techniques are used, whether the work involves gentle cleaning, lettering restoration, or preparation for re-gilding.
