Graffiti Removal In Dulwich, Within Three Hours
Within three hours of the call, seven days a week. Dulwich Village, Calton Avenue, Lordship Lane, Half Moon Lane and Court Lane are all inside it.
Water and power come with the crew, so no tap, socket or keyholder is asked for. A poultice that must be left overnight is flagged and both visits costed before the first one.

What We Remove
What comes off the van depends entirely on what the photograph shows:
| The job | What arrives to do it |
|---|---|
| Spray tags on stock brick or render | DOFF or TORC steam unit, pressure set to the substrate |
| Weathered or rollered paint on a flank | A poultice first, then steam, worked to a natural break |
| Marker and paint pen on painted joinery | Graded solvent gels, dwell timed then neutralised |
| Tagging on shutters and coated metal | Dry ice, which lifts paint without cutting the coating |
| Paint on railings and ironwork | Soda blast kit, with bare metal treated before we leave |
| Etching in glazing | Progressive polishing heads, finest abrasive last |
| Anything above the fascia | Access plant, already inside the quoted figure |
How We Price Your Job
What moves a figure, heaviest first:
- The surface. It settles the method, and the method is most of the cost. Soft stock brick and a powder coated shutter are not comparable jobs whatever the tag looks like.
- The access. Ground level with a clear footway is one price; above a fascia, over a bay window or behind a front garden is another.
- The age of the mark. Days beats weeks, and weeks beats a summer, by a wide margin.
- The area covered. Least important of the four, which surprises people. A long clean run is often less work per square metre than a small awkward one.
Each of those is taken separately in factors that affect the cost of graffiti removal, with indicative ranges in how much does graffiti removal cost in London.

Acid Etched Glass: Restore, Do Not Replace
Photograph the pane with something beside the mark for scale, a card or a coin, and we will tell you which way it falls before anybody attends. Scale is what lets depth be read off an image, and depth is most of the answer.
A shallow haze polishes back to clear. Deep etching, or scoring close to the edge of a pane, reaches a point where polishing would remove too much glass and replacement genuinely wins. You get that verdict in writing at quotation rather than after a crew has started and stopped.
Why waste £1,000s replacing vandalised glass windows? We provide perfect same-day restoration for less than 50% of the replacement cost.
What the polishing does to the glass is described in acid etched graffiti removal.
Surfaces We Clean In Dulwich
- Red brick unpainted, mostly yellow stock and softer than it appears
- Painted wood on shopfront joinery, fascias, pilasters and stall risers
- Mortar joints, lime through the older fabric and easily opened up
- Stucco smooth synthetic on rendered frontages and later infill
- Cast iron on railings, gates, boundary rails and rainwater goods
- Powder coated metal on shutters, grilles and modern shopfront framing
Who We Work For
The national accounts and the single shops want opposite things from the same crew. A national operator wants one method applied identically at every branch, documents on file before anyone attends, and a purchase order reference that survives from quotation to invoice untouched by three sets of hands. An independent on Lordship Lane wants the frontage dealt with before the morning trade and an invoice small enough that nobody has to approve it. Neither is the harder job. What would be wrong is pricing the second as a shrunken version of the first, and that is the mistake we do not make.
Pret, Chestertons, Iceland, Coca-Cola, McDonald's, StayCity, Ibis Hotel, Kwik Fit and WeWork are on the books, along with several hundred independent traders. Our Google rating is 5.0 from 42 reviews.

How It Works
Nearly every job here is unattended, and it is worth knowing what that looks like from your side. You send the photographs, approve the figure, and hear nothing until it is finished. The crew arrives with its own water, power and access equipment, so there is no call asking where a tap is. Protection goes down over the footway, and a trial runs out of sight to confirm the method behaves on your surface. The mark lifts, every drop of run off is caught rather than sent down the gutter, and the waste goes with the van. Then the paired images and the invoice arrive.
For Facilities Managers And Managing Agents
Where Dulwich is one address among several, the instruction behaves the same way at all of them:
- A single contact across the portfolio rather than a number per site
- One agreed method per surface type, so joinery is handled alike everywhere
- RAMS and COSHH written per address, never issued once and reused
- £10m public liability evidenced ahead of attendance anywhere on the list
- A dated photographic record per visit, kept for freeholder or insurer
- Purchase order references carried through quotation and invoice untouched
- Consolidated billing, or address by address where recovery is separate
- Evening and weekend attendance at the same rate as a weekday
Who ends up paying is a separate matter from who arranges it, set out in liability issues and who is responsible for graffiti removal. Whether a policy is the right route is weighed up in does insurance cover graffiti removal in London.
For Independent Traders And Single Sites
Early mornings and Sundays cost you least and cost nothing extra with us. A clean done before you open needs no barriers, interrupts no trade, and lets the crew work the frontage in one pass instead of around a door that keeps opening. On a village street with an early trade and a narrow pavement, that beats any discount. A single unit is quoted on its own: no minimum, nothing to sign, and the slot that suits you at the standard rate.

Anti Graffiti Coatings
How the case falls on the surfaces you actually have here:
| Surface | Worth coating? |
|---|---|
| Roller shutters and security grilles | Yes. Hit most often, easy to treat, next clean is a wipe |
| Rear service doors and bin stores | Yes, where marking is regular and nobody judges the finish |
| Painted timber shopfronts | No. A film dulls the paint and the treated edge always shows |
| Soft stock brick above the fascia | No. It has to dry outward through its own face |
| Anything needing an appearance approval | Not until it is in hand, since a film changes the look |
Sacrificial against permanent, and what each is for, is set out in anti graffiti coatings, what they are and how they work.
Where We Cover In Dulwich
All of SE21 and SE22, over the SE24 edge at Herne Hill. Dulwich Village and Calton Avenue end to end, with Lordship Lane, Half Moon Lane, Court Lane, Croxted Road, Park Hall Road, South Croxted Road, Turney Road, Burbage Road and Dulwich Common, plus the station approaches and the walls behind.
Why Dulwich Owners Call Us
Seven days a week, three hour attendance, our own water and power, £10m public liability, and nothing wanted from your staff.
Dulwich has an ownership arrangement almost nowhere else in London has, and it catches contractors out. A charity, the Dulwich Estate, holds the freehold of around fifteen hundred acres here and is freeholder of most commercial property within its boundaries, the shops concentrated in the Village, at the Park Hall and South Croxted Road junction, and along Half Moon Lane. Its scheme of management binds that land even where a freehold has since been bought out.
So the shopkeeper who rings us is often not the person who can authorise the work. Southwark's own assessment of the Village says most categories of work there, including repair and maintenance and any alteration to external appearance, need the Estate's approval alongside the council's. Cleaning a tag off is usually fine. What is not automatic is what follows: repainting a bay after a poultice leaves a shadow, a sacrificial coating, or making good in a colour that is not an exact match. So we quote the clean, say where an approval step is likely, and price a proper colour match rather than a nearest shade. Lordship Lane sits outside that arrangement as far as we know.
There is a meter running the whole time it stays up, and hidden costs of not removing graffiti promptly reads it.

Dulwich Graffiti Removal: Frequently Asked Questions
What does graffiti removal cost in Dulwich?
Surface, access and the age of the mark set it. Two photographs bring a committed figure back the same day.
How quickly can a crew attend?
Within three hours as a rule, any day of the week, and early, late and Sunday slots are charged as weekdays.
Does anybody need to be present?
Only where the wall is behind a locked gate. The crew is otherwise entirely self contained.
Our freeholder is the Dulwich Estate. Does that affect the job?
The clean itself, rarely. Repainting, making good or coating usually needs their approval too, and we say so at quotation.
Will a cleaned area stand out from the rest?
We take the work out to a pier, a bay or an opening, so nothing is left as a bright patch mid-wall.
Can etched or scratched glass be recovered?
Usually. Send a photograph with something for scale beside the mark and you get a verdict before anyone attends.
Do you remove stickers and fly-posting?
Yes, and the adhesive beneath, which is the part that brings a mark back if it is left in place.
Can you match the paint if making good is needed?
Yes, and on Estate land we price a proper colour match rather than a nearest shade, for the reason given above.
Who is invoiced when a wall is shared?
Whoever gives the instruction, and the figure can be split between units where that is needed.
Do you supply RAMS and insurance evidence?
Yes, both drafted for the address itself and issued with the quotation, ahead of attendance.
What comes back afterwards?
Dated images from one fixed point, before and after, with an invoice itemised against your order.
