Graffiti removal in Melbourne

Graffiti that's left up tends to attract more. We remove tags from brick, render, metal, glass and signage using methods matched to each surface.

Graffiti tags on a weathered exterior wall

01Overview

Graffiti Removal, done properly.

The right way to remove graffiti depends on two things: what it was written with, and what it was written on. Spray paint on glass wipes off easily; marker on unsealed brick soaks in and needs a different approach entirely.

We test a small section first, then use a graffiti remover and controlled rinse suited to the surface. Where the paint has stained porous masonry, we'll tell you if a shadow is likely and discuss options such as repainting or an anti-graffiti coating.

05Questions

Graffiti Removal FAQs

How quickly should graffiti be removed?

As soon as practical. Fresh paint comes off more completely, and prompt removal discourages repeat tagging.

Will removal damage my brickwork?

Not when the correct remover and pressure are used. That's why we test a small area first.

Can you remove graffiti from painted walls?

Sometimes the tag lifts cleanly; often the practical fix is removal followed by repainting the section.

Do anti-graffiti coatings work?

Yes. A coated surface lets future tags be removed quickly with far less effort.
