Stone monuments, headstones and mausoleums in New England can fade and lose their original color and lustre due to the severe weather conditions and sometimes vandalism. Damage from acid rain, tree sap, moss and lichen can overtake the surface and hide the natural beauty of the stone and sometimes cover inscriptions.
It’s best to have monuments cleaned and restored in warmer, drier weather like late summer and early fall.
When it comes to maintaining your family’s legacy it is important to hire a professional. At Boston Stone Restoration we have worked on a wide variety of burial markers ranging from a simple carved slate cross to ornate marble mausoleums.
