In these areas graffiti can appear on brick, render, metal, glass, wood and signage. The variety of surfaces means different cleaning methods are needed.

We explain every step of the process so you know what to expect and our team respects your property while delivering results that look as good as new.

What types of graffiti we remove in Isle of Dogs

Graffiti comes in many forms. We specialise in removing both traditional graffiti and more challenging acid etched graffiti. Here is a quick guide to what we typically tackle in this area:

• Fresh spray paint and roller paint on brick, concrete, timber and metal
• Marker pen and felt tip graffiti on walls, glass and doors
• Stencils and posters that have been adhered to surfaces
• Acid etched graffiti which penetrates the surface and requires careful chemical treatment
• Oil and solvent based graffiti on shopfronts and metal surfaces
• Adhesive residues such as stickers, vinyls and glue from posters

We tailor our methods to the surface. For example brickwork and stone surfaces may respond best to a controlled cleaning solution combined with low pressure washing, while glass and metal surfaces may need gentler, precise techniques to avoid scratches or damage. Our priority is to remove the graffiti effectively while preserving the integrity of the underlying substrate. If anti graffiti coatings are appropriate, we will discuss them as part of the plan to protect the cleaned surface from future graffiti.

Why graffiti removal in Isle of Dogs matters

Graffiti is more than an unsightly mark on a wall. It can affect a business’s first impression, deter customers, and signal neglect in a neighbourhood. For residential properties it can lower perceived value and invite more vandalism if surfaces appear neglected. In a busy area like Isle of Dogs where Canary Wharf and other amenities attract visitors, fast graffiti removal helps maintain a welcoming environment and supports property safety and security. Graffiti removal also avoids long term damage. Some materials used by graffiti artists can degrade surfaces if left untreated, leading to costly repairs or recoating later on. Our approach minimises disruption while delivering durable results that help preserve the appearance and value of your property.

Another consideration is compliance and planning. In some cases graffiti may involve posters or signs that require proper removal and disposal. We handle the process in a compliant and careful way, ensuring that waste is managed responsibly and surfaces are restored to their best condition. For commercial tenants or landlords in Isle of Dogs, prompt graffiti removal supports brand image and creates a more comfortable environment for staff and customers.

Our process from first contact to finish

1. Initial contact and rapid assessment. We can arrange a site visit or provide guidance over the phone to determine the likely scope and surface types. You can request a free on site assessment and quote.
2. Site evaluation and surface testing. We check for sensitivity of surfaces such as aged brick, soft render, or painted finishes. We assess the best method for removal and whether any protective coatings are suitable.
3. containment and protection. We use tarps and masking to protect nearby plants, windows, doors and fixtures. We manage any loose debris and waste in accordance with local guidelines.
4. Graffiti removal. We apply surface appropriate methods. This includes solvent based removal on durable substrates and careful cleaning on more delicate surfaces. For acid etched graffiti we apply specialized processes to restore clarity without harming the substrate.
5. Surface restoration and finishing. After cleaning we evaluate the finish. We may perform light finishing to restore texture and colour or prepare for a protective coating if agreed.
6. Quality check and aftercare. We perform a final inspection with you and provide guidance on maintaining the clean surface. We may also discuss anti graffiti coatings for future protection.

In most cases we complete the removal in a single visit, depending on the size of the job and the type of surface. Larger sites or complex surfaces may require more than one session. We always plan around your schedule and aim to minimise disruption to your business or daily life in the Isle of Dogs community.

Surface safety and recommendations

Surface preservation is a core part of our service. We tailor our methods to protect brickwork or stone surfaces while removing graffiti. We avoid aggressive blasting on sensitive surfaces and choose chemical or low pressure methods when appropriate. If acid etched graffiti has damaged a surface, we use careful, professional techniques to remove the marks while keeping the underlying material intact. After cleaning we may suggest a protective coating or sealant that can help resist future graffiti attacks. We explain all these options in plain terms and together we decide on the best plan for your property.

Transparent pricing and no hidden fees

We pride ourselves on clear, upfront pricing. When you request a quote you will receive a detailed plan showing the expected steps and the cost. There are no hidden fees and no surprise charges after the job is done. If you have questions about the pricing, we will walk you through the calculation and explain how surface type, the extent of graffiti and the chosen method affect the price.

Eco friendly cleaning and responsible waste management

We use environmentally responsible products whenever possible and we dispose of waste legally and safely. We avoid harsh chemicals that could impact the local environment while still delivering effective graffiti removal. Our team respects the community of Isle of Dogs, keeping public spaces clean and safe for residents and visitors alike.

Coatings and prevention for future graffiti

One of the most effective long term strategies is the application of an anti graffiti coating or sealant. These coatings create a protective layer on the surface that makes graffiti easier to remove in the future. In many cases a coating reduces maintenance costs and keeps properties looking better for longer. We offer recommendations based on surface type and location. For busy parts of Isle of Dogs such as Canary Wharf walkways or South Quay storefronts a coating can be a smart investment. We will explain the pros and cons of different coatings and help you choose the right option for your property.
