If you have ever visited the Statue of Liberty, the Great Smoky Mountains, the Grand Canyon or Fort Pulaski, you have been to a historically preserved monument. Providing generations with a step into the nation's history and culture is important to maintain. If you have purchased a historical home, building or site, you may find it challenging to protect and maintain the original limestonestructure. By contacting your state historical preservation office, you may find there is help in your preservation efforts. Instructions as follows: Firstly, inspect the historical monuments for damage or wear and tear. Secondly, contact your state's historic preservation office. You will need to fill out a Section 106 Project Review Form, which details the status of the project; whether you are applying for federal assistance or anticipate assistance; and what will be involved in the rehabilitation of the project. This form is instrumental in helping with financing repairs to the historical monument. Thirdly, fill out a preliminary information form on the property. You will be asked information about the historical significance of the monument, such as who lived on the property, who designed the property and whether an important event occurred on the site. Records should also be included with the form to provide credibility of the monument's historical significance. You need to provide this form to your state preservation office so that the historical monument will be considered for its historical monument list and for possible assistance to be granted from the government to preserve the monument. Fourthly, contact state and local officials to make sure any work performed on the monument is within code regulations. Fifthly, perform repairs, while maintaining the original structure. Part of preserving an historical monument is making sure it looks and is designed just as it was when it was originally constructed. This step should involve working with experts from your state's historical preservation office to make sure the structure does not lose its historical integrity. Sixthly, maintain the historical monument made of cubic stone. Whether you are dealing with a historical home, building or stone monument, use materials that are gentle and not harsh. Seventhly, repair and replace any faulty electrical wiring in historical buildings and homes. While you want to maintain the look and appeal of the original structure, you still need to insure that the monument is safe. Hire an electrical contractor who has experience working on historic church, so that the structure and appearance of the historical monument is kept intact. Tips & Warnings Many of the state's historical preservation offices have a list of professional consultants who can help guide you with preserving your historical monument. The lists typically provide resumes, references and previous projects. Repair areas of the historical monument as opposed to replacing with new materials. Check with your state historic preservation office to find out if your historic monument qualifies for a rehabilitation tax credit. Do not attempt to clean stone monuments that are chipping; cleaning the stone may actually cause it further deterioration. Contact a professional for advice. Finally, let me have a short conclusion.
