Our approach to commercial graffiti removal in Highbury

On site assessment and rapid quoting

When a client reaches out we prioritise quick practical assessment. A site visit allows us to identify the type of graffiti the surface being treated and any risk factors. We explain our plan and provide a transparent quote with no hidden charges. If you need a rapid response we can often provide an initial assessment and a firm quote on the same day. Our aim is to minimize disruption and have your property looking clean again as soon as possible.

Clear scope and safe effective methods

Each Highbury project starts with a clear scope. We outline what will be removed how long it will take and what the finished surface will look like. We then apply a cleaning method tailored to the surface and the graffiti type. For traditional graffiti including tags throw ups and pieces we use proven cleaning agents and mechanical cleaning methods that won t damage the substrate. For acid etched graffiti which leaves permanent marks etched into glass or stone we may use a combination of chemical cleaners and professional polishing to restore clarity and remove the staining. Throughout the process we monitor the surface for signs of damage and adjust our approach as needed.

Surface friendly cleaning for bricks render metal and glass

Highbury properties present a variety of materials. Brick surfaces can trap paint and render galleries can hide under graffiti. Glass surfaces especially on shopfronts can suffer from etching if cleaners are not used correctly. We have experience with all common Highbury surfaces including:

• Brickwork and brick render
• Harshly painted brick with multiple layers
• Glass shopfronts and windows with acid etching
• Metal doors frames and grilles
• Wooden fascias and signage
• Concrete borders and pavements

Our technicians perform a careful assessment to determine the best approach for each surface. We prioritize methods that are effective yet gentle on the material ensuring there is no risk to plants or nearby surfaces. We also consider environmental factors such as weather conditions and nearby water courses to avoid run off and residue after the cleaning process.

No disruption to your daily operation

For commercial premises in Highbury it is essential to keep disruption to a minimum. We plan our visits to suit your business hours and we often work outside of peak times to reduce customer interruptions. If a site requires partial closure during the cleaning process we will coordinate with you to implement a sensible schedule. Our aim is to return your property to a clean and welcoming state with as little downtime as possible.

What types of graffiti we remove in Highbury

Graffiti comes in many forms from quick tags scratched on a door to large ornate artworks. In Highbury we frequently deal with:

• Tags quick one line signatures usually created with spray paint or markers. They are often the first sign of graffiti in an area and can spread rapidly when left untreated.
• Throw ups larger more elaborate versions of tags usually with bubble letters and multiple colours. They cover more surface area and require more cleaning effort than a simple tag.
• Pieces larger colorful and highly stylized graffiti artwork. While some pieces are commissioned and legitimate this category also includes vandalism on commercial property. We remove or restore depending on the client s needs and property considerations.
• Acid etched graffiti markings etched into glass stone or metal surfaces. This type of graffiti is particularly challenging because the marking is embedded in the surface. We use careful methods to reduce the etched appearance and restore a clear surface where possible.
• Stenciling reusable stencils creating uniform images or letters. We remove stencil graffiti with a combination of cleaning methods tailored to the stencil material and the substrate.
• Graffiti over signage graffiti that covers business signage or window decals. We not only remove the graffiti but also help restore signage visibility where feasible.

Each Highbury site is different and the above categories may occur in combination. Our specialists assess the full scope before starting to ensure there are no surprises later in the project. We also document the surface condition before and after cleaning so you have a clear record for your property portfolio or management team.

Why removing graffiti in Highbury matters
