Cleaned: 6 August, 2026

I had the absolute honor of cleaning this beautiful double granite headstone up for the Fermin family on Thursday afternoon and planting some beautiful yellow roses per their request at the gravesite. Polished stones are pretty easy to work with, and I love when the finished result gives them back that polished mirror shine. I will say though, getting the buildup out of the design of the angels was a bit of a challenge (lot of small marks to get into).
I look forward to possibly getting to do future work for the Fermin family. May their loved ones rest in peace 🙏

Note:
I am posting this with the family’s permission. The old flowers and broken decoration in the front after photo were removed from the gravesite and properly disposed of per the family’s request.

St. Rita of Cascia
Cleaned: 10 April, 2026 & 19 May, 2026

This one’s a bit different from what I normally do. Usually I just do headstones, but I had the director of Immaculate Conception and St. Mary’s Cemeteries here in Lawrence reach out to me requesting this statue as well as a few others in the cemetery be cleaned up in an attempt to make the cemetery look better for those who come to visit their loved ones. I’m beyond honored to take up the work of cleaning them up on behalf of the cemetery.

These photos are a collection from when I did the first cleaning back in April, to my second cleaning in May (second photo set from June 16th), to now. What a difference it made going back for the second time.

I’ve been sitting on this in my drafts for a bit. Wanted to wait and make sure I had a good outcome with it prior to posting.

Name: David McCord
Cleaned: 8 September, 2025.

One more from last year’s contract with Bellevue that ended up lost in my camera roll. The after pictures were taken in April as I hadn’t seen much improvement between the day of cleaning and the time I closed down operations for the year.

It’s an absolutely massive difference what a few months makes with some of the cleaners I use. Although there’s a bit of residual staining on the back, I’m extremely pleased with how well this one came out.

I had the opportunity and the pleasure this afternoon to clean this one up for the family this afternoon. Between the headstone and the three markers it took right around 3.5 hours to get everything done. Definitely came out great, even though there were a couple spots that did not want to budge.

Good Afternoon folks!
Today, the United States Celebrates its 250th Birthday.

As we Celebrate our nation on this beautiful day, remember, drink responsibly, travel safely, enjoy the festivities, and if you’re launching fireworks to celebrate, please be careful!

On behalf of myself and my family, we wish you all a healthy, safe, and a very happy Independence Day!
God bless America!

Cleaned: 9 June, 2026

Sorry for lack of posts so far this year. Working full time while running this on the side leads me to occasionally forget to upload my work.

Fortunately, this was a pretty easy stone to get cleaned up. Although there is a small amount of residual staining, almost all of it came off in one go. The after photos were taken a couple days later when I’d come back to the cemetery to work on another stone. It always feels good to knock another one off my contracted list!

Made a promise to my great-grandmother earlier this year that I was going to take the time to pull up her marker and make sure it was leveled off as it had started to sink.
I’d been putting it off for the past couple years and had just been removing the grass around it as it grew. But, it’s done, it looks great, and it’s not sinking anymore.
Next step is refinishing it to make it look brand new, but that probably won’t be this year.

One of the many things I’ve had the pleasure of doing with Bellevue Cemetery here in Lawrence is helping out with cemetery beautification day. This includes flag replacement which is something I’ve been doing since I was a kid with my grandparents.

This year they asked me to come on and help them plant flowers at their perpetual care plots, which I was more than happy to oblige. Over the course of two days I planted well over 100 flowers across 30+ plots, these are only 20 of the ones I did.

Took a stop down to the cemetery this afternoon to do some work on my family plots today.

Had to get this one cleaned up and edged out. Next step is going in and lifting it out to re-level it as it is starting to sink. Definitely not gonna be a fun one to do, but it definitely needs to be done. I may also refinish the bronze in the near future.

One more from last year’s contract with Bellevue Cemetery. Not only did I have to clean this one up, but I also needed to get it recentered on the base. Definitely a fun project, but not an easy feat. The back side also did not come out on the original cleaning as I’d hoped, so I resprayed a second time a couple weeks ago in an attempt to get it looking even better.
