Frequently Asked
Questions
What removal methods do you use, and how do you choose the right one for my surface?
We select the method based on the surface material and how long the graffiti has been there. Fresh tags on smooth surfaces like glass or metal typically respond well to chemical solvents. Porous materials like brick or concrete often require pressure washing or a combination of solvent treatment and low-pressure rinsing. For delicate or heritage surfaces, we use gentler techniques like soda blasting to lift paint without damaging the substrate underneath.
Can you remove graffiti from all surface types, including brick, glass, metal, and painted walls?
Yes. Each surface requires a different approach. Brick and concrete are porous, so we use penetrating solvents followed by pressure washing to draw the paint out without etching the face of the material. Glass and metal are non-porous and respond well to solvent wipes or light abrasive pads. Painted walls require extra care so we remove the graffiti without stripping the underlying finish — in some cases a colour-matched touch-up is recommended after removal.
How quickly should graffiti be removed, and what happens if it's left too long?
The sooner the better — ideally within 24 to 48 hours of it appearing. Fresh paint sits on the surface and lifts cleanly. The longer it bonds with the substrate, the harder and more costly full removal becomes. On porous surfaces like brick, paint that has cured for several days can penetrate deep enough that complete removal without surface damage becomes very difficult.
Do you apply any protective coating after removal to prevent future graffiti from bonding?
Yes, and we strongly recommend it. After removal we can apply an anti-graffiti coating that acts as a sacrificial barrier between the surface and any future paint or marker. If tagged again, the coating allows for much faster and cheaper cleanup since the graffiti never bonds directly to the original material. Coatings are available in both permanent and sacrificial formulas depending on your surface type and budget.
Is your graffiti removal process safe for older buildings or surfaces with existing paint or coatings?
Absolutely. Older buildings and previously painted surfaces need careful handling to avoid stripping finishes or etching masonry. We assess the surface condition before selecting any chemicals or pressure settings, and we always test in a small inconspicuous area first. If we spot any pre-existing damage or fragile coatings, we'll let you know before proceeding so there are no surprises.
How do you safely remove graffiti from high-rise or hard-to-reach surfaces?
For elevated surfaces we use the same IRATA certified rope access and aerial lift equipment we use for our high-rise window cleaning and caulking work. All tools and chemical containers are tethered to prevent anything from falling to street level, and the surrounding area is secured before work begins. This means no surface on your building is out of reach, and the job gets done safely without disrupting pedestrian traffic or your tenants below.
