Graffiti removal from facades — Facade cleaner
Provide photographs of the graffiti and the wider wall, together with information about the surface and any protective coating. Tell the specialist about previous attempts and whether the building is subject to special protection, so the response can focus on preserving the substrate rather than simply erasing the mark.
Service scope
Assessment and removal or reduction of unwanted graffiti from an identified exterior surface using a compatible treatment. The medium, substrate and any previous protective coating influence the approach; complete removal without a trace cannot be assumed.
What is normally included
- Assessment of graffiti medium and substrate
- Agreed removal trials
- Specified cleaning and result review
What is not included
- Guaranteed elimination of every shadow or stain
- Automatic repainting or application of anti-graffiti coatings
Typical tasks
- Record the affected area
- Identify the surface and graffiti type
- Test an appropriate removal approach
- Treat the approved areas
- Review remaining marks and next-step options
What to include in your brief
- Photographs and approximate area
- Surface material and finish
- Known graffiti medium
- Previous removal attempts or coatings
- Access and heritage information
Choosing the right professional
Ask for experience with the same material and a realistic account of possible shadowing or finish changes. Agree the test result before broad treatment; on sensitive historic surfaces, suitable conservation expertise may matter more than rapid removal.
Important considerations
- Aggressive removal can permanently mark the underlying surface
- Residual staining may remain even after the graffiti medium is reduced
