Caring for Headstones
Families often want to honor their loved ones by cleaning their headstones, but here’s the truth: improper cleaning can do more harm than good. Using household cleaners, wire brushes, or harsh chemicals can erode the stone, causing permanent damage.
Proper cleaning requires gentle tools and the right solutions:
-
Use soft-bristle brushes, not metal.
-
Stick to clean water or cemetery-approved cleaning agents.
-
Avoid pressure washers or bleach at all costs.
We Can Help
At Lutz Cemetery, we offer professional cleaning services to protect each marker with care and respect. Preserving a monument means preserving a family’s story — and that’s a responsibility we don’t take lightly.
The Lutz Cemetery Specialty Care Packages
Yes, perpetual care is something the Cemetery is committed to. But specialty care is not part of the perpetual care budget. At the same time, we understand some people would like to see their loved one's gravesite and stone cared for regularly. In many cases, families live far away from the cemetery and are unable to visit often.
With the Lutz Cemetery Specialty Care Packages, families can rest assured that their loved one's gravesite or stone is managed and cleaned.
