Bronze Memorial Cleaning Service
Preserve the Beauty and Dignity of Ground-Level Bronze Markers
Twin Valley Memorial Park offers a professional bronze memorial cleaning service designed to preserve the beauty and dignity of ground-level bronze markers. Regular cleaning and oiling help slow the natural oxidation process and maintain the memorial’s appearance for years to come. Services include:
Trimming of sod around the marker base
Clipping of overlying grass
Thorough washing of the bronze surface
Application of manufacturer-recommended protective oil
One-Time Cleaning Fee
$20 per marker. This service provides cleaning and protective oiling only. It is not a restoration or refinishing process. While cleaning
will temporarily brighten aged bronze, it will not restore heavily oxidized markers to their original condition. Routine oiling several times per year is the most effective way to slow further aging.

Long-Term Maintenance Endowments
These are funded through a single payment placed into an interest-bearing account. The annual cleaning expenses are drawn from the earned interest whenever possible. While we make every effort to preserve the principal and use only interest income, we cannot guarantee perpetual coverage due to fluctuating interest rates. Once the fund is depleted, additional payment will be required to continue the service.
For more information or to schedule a cleaning, please contact the cemetery office. We are committed to helping you honor your loved one’s memory with a well-maintained memorial.
