Cathedral Stone

This is another professional group that comes highly recommended. The price is well worth the training and it comes with certification. As with the above group, U.S. Heritage Group, this company advocates for traditional training methods. They post a calendar for spring classes. They sell many researched and safe cleaning products, mortars, and tools.

Evergreen Benevolent Society
We will be hosting a Basic Cleaning and Resetting class for interested volunteers in Evergreen. We have not set a date yet but this will be on a weekend and an all day class that encompasses the basics of cemeteries, stone, care or monuments, and hands on work during the afternoon that will give practice to resetting and cleaning.
Please check back for a date.

U.S. Heritage Group
http://ushg.macusa.net/workshops.php  

This company is one of the leading "old" stone restoration professionals out there. They specialize in repair, refacing, and restoration of buildings and cemetery memorials using old mortars and old world skills. Their workshops are well worth the price. They train only in the fall and spring as they are involved in major projects during the summer.
