Based in London and serving Herne Hill and surrounding areas, we are the leading professional graffiti removal service for commercial properties. We remove graffiti all day every day, the sameday. Our team combines speed with care to protect your property while restoring its original appearance. We specialise in removing traditional graffiti and acid etched graffiti and we always explain every term so you can understand what is happening.

Why professional graffiti removal matters for commercial properties in Herne Hill

Graffiti can impact the first impression customers form about your business. In a busy area like Herne Hill with shops along Norwood Road and Bellenden Road, graffiti can appear quickly on external walls, signage, and windows. Left untreated graffiti can deter customers, invite further vandalism and even trigger insurance concerns. Hiring a professional graffiti removal company is not just about aesthetics. It is about maintaining a safe inviting environment for customers and staff. It also helps protect the value of your property and keeps your premises compliant with local regulations that govern commercial façades.

We know Herne Hill well. The area includes a mix of independent retailers on Bellenden Road, the high footfall of Herne Hill station nearby and the green openness of Brockwell Park. Businesses here depend on a strong visual presence to attract visitors who come for shopping, dining and leisure. Our approach is always practical and respectful of the local street character. We work with shop owners, landlords and property managers to restore façades with minimal disruption to daily operations.

Herne Hill sits between Brixton and Dulwich in South London. Our team understands the materials commonly used on commercial properties in this part of London, including brickwork, rendered walls, metal cladding, glass and painted surfaces. We recognise that different surfaces require different techniques. For example a painted storefront may respond best to a gentle solvent cleaning followed by a protective sealant. A brick wall may need a more thorough treatment to remove spray paint while preserving the texture of the brick. We tailor our process to your building type so you do not spend more than necessary and you do not risk damage to the underlying surface.
We have worked on a wide range of property types in Herne Hill including independent shops on High Street, public houses along the border with Brixton, professional offices on residential streets and multi tenancy commercial blocks. We also understand how to coordinate with neighbouring businesses to minimise disruption during normal trading hours. If you need clear signage or window protection after removal we can advise on compliant options that fit your property style.

Graffiti covers a lot of ground. We deal with a broad spectrum of marks and effects. These include spray painted graffiti typically left by street artists or vandals, marker tags that can smear across walls, and acid etched graffiti which is far more aggressive and damages the surface itself. We also handle vandalism such as spray paint on windows and shopfronts, protective film coating damage and spray marks on signage. Our team has the tools and experience to treat each scenario correctly so the result looks clean and uniform once the work is complete.
In addition to removing graffiti from brick walls we remove it from painted surfaces and metal facades. We use surface specific methods to reduce the risk of stripping paint or dulling metal finishes. For glass we can work with laser or gel based solutions that lift graffiti without scratching or fogging the surface. If a surface shows signs of acid etching where the acid has left tiny pits in the material we use appropriate restoration techniques to smooth and restore the surface as much as possible. When corrosion or permanent damage has occurred we advise if replacement or a protective coating is required for long term protection.

We start with a clear plan. A quick on site survey allows us to evaluate the surface, select the appropriate products and confirm timing. We always discuss potential surface changes and any expected outcomes so you know what to expect before we begin. Our process is designed to deliver fast results with minimum disruption to your business operations.
Step by step our approach includes:
Site assessment and surface analysis to determine the best removal method
Selection of approved environmentally friendly cleaning agents and methods
Application of cleaning agents with careful dwell time to lift the graffiti
Gentle mechanical methods such as soft brushes or low pressure washing as required
Rinsing and neutralising to protect the original surface finish
Final inspection with you to confirm satisfaction and note any follow up work if needed
We follow a clear protocol to prevent harm to the surrounding areas. For example if the graffiti is on metalwork we may use solvents that are safe for the substrate and we always rinse thoroughly to avoid staining or residue. For porous surfaces like brick or concrete we choose methods that penetrate without causing additional damage or colour fade. Our aim is to restore a surface to as close to its original condition as possible while maintaining the building’s character.

Our toolkit is purpose built for efficiency and safety. We employ a mix of hand tools and modern equipment depending on the surface and the level of graffiti. Here is a snapshot of the kinds of tools we use frequently in Herne Hill projects.
Soft bristle brushes for delicate cleaning without scratching surfaces
Low pressure water washing to lift paint while protecting wall textures
Pressure washing with careful control when appropriate and safe for the substrate
Specialist graffiti removal solvents that are compatible with the surface and safer for the environment
Acid etched graffiti removal techniques when necessary with controlled neutralisation
Protective coatings and anti graffiti sealants for future protection
We always select methods that balance effectiveness with respect for the building’s historic or aesthetic value. For instance in leafy Herne Hill some older façades have historical textures which we treat with extra care to preserve architectural details while removing graffiti.

Safety is non negotiable in our work. We conduct on site risk assessments and provide our teams with the right PPE and training. We also keep public safety in mind during working hours especially on busy commercial streets that see foot traffic and vehicle movement. When dealing with solvents we use products with low toxicity and safe disposal procedures in line with local regulations. Our environmental approach focuses on minimising chemical use where possible and promoting recyclable packaging and waste management practices. We want clean surfaces and healthy surroundings for staff and customers alike.

In a commercial environment time matters. Graffiti on shopfronts, signage or office windows can deter customers and impact footfall. The sooner a professional removal team can address graffiti the faster your business can resume normal operations. Our sameday service option means we can respond quickly and do not keep you waiting days for removal. We coordinate with your trading hours to avoid unnecessary interruptions. If you need to shut a doorway or protect an area during removal we plan for minimal downtime and a fast turnaround so you can reopen faster.

We promise clear upfront pricing with no hidden fees and a straightforward quote process. We explain every term and avoid confusing jargon. Our work is backed by insurance and complies with local regulations. Our aim is to deliver consistent high quality results every time. We want to be your trusted partner for graffiti removal in Herne Hill and we measure success by the long term condition of your property and your peace of mind.

Herne Hill properties vary from traditional brick townhouses to modern retail shells. We adapt our methods to each surface to maximise results while minimising risk. On brickwork we may start with a gentle chemical cleaner followed by a careful wash to lift graffiti. On rendered façades we use a combination of cleaners and soft brushing to avoid scratching or removing paint unintentionally. On glass and windows we apply solutions that lift paint without compromising clarity. And on metal shopfronts we choose products and techniques that protect the integrity of the metal finish.
