Cemetery cleaning

[Doug Dahlke]

A church I recenltly quoted to clean has asked me to also quote cleaning the cemetery. I will need to go back out there to get all the specifics but I beleive the cemetery was not that big. The church is old and I was told some of the markers date back to 1835. I would think I will find different types of stone out there. Any ideas how to go about pricing this? I have e-mailed some chem manufactures for recommendations on what chems to use. Has anyone done this before?

Man thats spooky...Hope you get through before dark... We cleaned some headstones at our churches cemetery and used marble polish and marble/Granite Gel Cleaner.. We then cleaned the concrete and side walks I spent a whole day cleaning but since it was a church that I attend and the preacher and I are good friends he and his family took us all out to eat since we helped clean up .. But you know it wasn't that hard to clean those head stones , I just sprayed on the gel cleaner and washed it off with the pressure washer and then had a couple of guys wipe them dry .. I would say probably 50-60 headstones and about 400 ft of sidewalk and a little building washing took about 8 hours..

Keep in mind the grass and the chem you use-it could create a problem-just be aware
