Graffiti

Dealing with unwanted graffiti is an ongoing challenge in many urban areas.

We help businesses and facilities managers quickly and safely remove graffiti, leaving their exterior building surfaces good as new and deterring future graffiti attacks.

Graffiti can be unsightly, offensive and is often seen as a clear sign that a neighbourhood is starting to go downhill. The problem can start with just one tag or slogan scrawled on a building then, just as one broken window inevitably leads to more, copycat tags and slogans start to follow and their rapid proliferation makes it increasingly difficult and costly to get things cleaned up. 

Aerosol spray paint is the most typical substance used by vandals, however we do come across a variety of other substances such as felt marker pens, waxy products (including lip stick), emulsion and gloss paint. 

Once we have completed our graffiti removal we often treat the surface with a special anti-graffiti treatment to prevent further attacks. Additional prevention tactics include; creating barriers such as prickly plants, improving lighting and security and keeping the area clean and well maintained.
