Deep Cleaning across Indiana, coordinated from first call to final photo

Routine dirt, mold and biological growth are removed with safe, cemetery-approved deep cleaning for granite and bronze — no harsh pressure washing that could damage the stone. Deep cleaning restores a bright, cared-for appearance; structural resetting and heavy refinishing are handled by our repair and restoration services. Every clean comes with before-and-after photos.

Across Indiana, deep cleaning is delivered through our Midwest network, so you get one clear point of contact and a crew coordinated to your cemetery — with nearby hubs in Illinois, Ohio supporting scheduling across the region.

We work with monuments purchased from any retailer — not just our own family of brands — and every visit in Indiana is documented with photos so distant families can see the work was done correctly and respectfully.

Indiana cemetery facts

VA cleaning rules for government markers in Indiana

VA's National Cemetery Administration lists 4 cemeteries in Indiana: 1 open for new burials, 2 open for cremated remains only and 1 with no new gravesites (closed). VA also lists 1 grant-funded state or tribal veterans cemetery in Indiana.

The goal of cleaning is to remove air pollution soiling, lichen, bird droppings, dirt, salts and sap. It is not to make the headstone or marker look “like new.”

VA prohibits the general public from power washing government-furnished headstones and markers because of the damage it may cause to historical headstones.

History

New Albany National Cemetery is located New Albany, IN, just across the Ohio River from Louisville, KY.
Founded just below the Falls of the Ohio, New Albany was first settled in the early 1800s by farmers who recognized the town's potential as a transportation and ship-building hub.
The first settlers in the region named the territory after the capital of their home state, New York.
Prior to construction of the locks on the Louisville side of the river, New Albany was one of the largest cities in the Midwest due to its river location.
Riverboat building and glass manufacturing were important industries.

Crown Hill Cemetery is notable as one of the largest private cemeteries in the country at 555 acres.
Incorporated September 25, 1863, as a non-denominational facility, Crown Hill Cemetery provided much needed burial grounds at a time when space was diminishing in the city cemetery.

Among the many notables buried in Crown Hill Cemetery are President Benjamin Harrison, 11 governors of Indiana, and the notorious bank robber John Dillinger.
