Bronze Memorial Refinishing
Bronze, like all metals, naturally undergoes oxidation over time. This process causes the copper in bronze memorials to develop a patina, gradually changing the surface to a greenish color. A clear protective coating applied during production helps slow this natural process, but exposure to weather and the elements will eventually affect the finish. Over time, the memorial may lose some of its original luster and brilliance. Regular care can help maintain the appearance of the memorial and extend the life of its protective finish. However, even with proper care, the natural aging process cannot be completely prevented. If you would like to restore your bronze memorial to its original beauty, contact us to schedule professional refinishing.

Grave Site Beautification
A well-maintained grave site provides a beautiful setting to honor and remember a loved one. We can enhance the area with granite coping, decorative granite chips, and other improvements that create a neat, finished appearance. Over time, granite chips can become displaced, weathered, or mixed with soil and may need to be refreshed. When needed, we can remove the existing chips, treat the area to help control unwanted vegetation, and install a ground barrier before adding fresh granite chips. This helps create a cleaner appearance and reduces grass and weed growth through the stone. Whether you are looking to refresh an existing site or give the entire area a new look, we can help restore its beauty and create a setting that families can be proud to visit for years to come.

Cemetery Memorial Lettering
When a final date needs to be added to a memorial that is already installed in a cemetery, you do not necessarily have to remove the memorial or transport it to a monument company. We have the capability to add dates and other necessary lettering directly to existing memorials at the cemetery. Our on-location service allows us to carefully match the existing lettering as closely as possible, helping the new inscription blend naturally with the original design. This can be especially helpful for companion or family memorials that need a date added after a loved one has passed. If a memorial needs an update, contact us to discuss the project. We can evaluate the existing stone, determine what can be added on location, and help you choose the best way to complete the work with care and respect.

Monument Installation
Granite memorial and monument installation, sometimes referred to as monument setting, is an important part of creating a lasting memorial. We place a properly prepared foundation beneath every monument we install to provide a stable, level surface and help reduce the risk of settling, shifting, or leaning over time. The foundation and installation process are tailored to the monument and cemetery requirements. Our installation team is part of our company, and we never outsource our monument installations to outside contractors. From preparing the site and foundation to carefully setting and leveling the monument, our own experienced team handles the work from start to finish. This allows us to maintain the quality and care that your memorial deserves.
