Our team conducts careful assessments on arrival and will explain every step of the process before we begin.
Types of graffiti we remove in Dalston
Graffiti comes in many forms and each type demands a slightly different removal method. At DUA London Graffiti Removal we are experienced with a wide range of graffiti including:
- Traditional graffiti This is usually spray paint applied to walls fences or signage. It can be colourful and artistically styled or simple tags. We remove traditional graffiti with methods that preserve the surface and restore the original look.
- Tags and throw ups Quick signature marks and larger bubble-like letters. These are often the most common form in busy districts. Our approach targets the pigment while protecting surrounding materials.
- Acid etched graffiti This is more aggressive damage caused by acid or chemical reactions that deepen into the surface. It requires specialised chemical treatment and sometimes repainting for a full restoration. We have the right equipment and procedures to deal with acid etched incidents safely.
- Stickers posters and adhesive media Glue residue and stickers can be stubborn. We remove the media and clean the residue to avoid staining or chemical marks.
- Graffiti on glass and transparent surfaces Windows and glass doors need gentle yet effective cleaning to avoid streaks etched marks or damage to seals. We use surface friendly solutions designed for glass.
- Graffiti on metal and timber surfaces We use surface appropriate methods to protect metal finishes and timber structures while removing pigment and marker lines.
- Weathered and rising graffiti In Dalston the weather can cause graffiti to appear quickly after cleaning. Our technicians are trained to identify what is fresh and what has penetrated the surface so we can choose the most effective removal method.
In all cases our priority is safety and preservation of the underlying material. We select cleaning agents that are effective yet gentle enough for the surface involved. When possible we use eco friendly solvents and methods that minimise environmental impact while delivering outstanding results. If you have a sensitive surface such as a historic brick or decorative plaster we will explain a careful plan before we start.

When you contact us for a quote we work fast to assess the scope of work and provide a clear price. If the surface is accessible and conditions are suitable we aim to start removal on the same day.

- Post clean options If you want extra protection we can apply anti graffiti coatings to help deter future tagging and improve cleaning times if graffiti returns.
We believe in honest communication every step of the way. If a surface requires more than one visit we will explain why and provide a transparent plan including any additional costs.

Surface protection and long term prevention
One of the best ways to keep Dalston looking good after graffiti removal is to apply protective coatings. Anti graffiti coatings create a barrier on the surface making future graffiti easier to remove and less damaging. There are different types of coatings including sacrificial coatings which come off with graffiti and reapply easily and non sacrificial coatings which stay on the surface and allow cleaned graffiti to be removed without refinishing. We can help you choose a coating that suits the type of surface and the local environment. In a busy area like Dalston a protective layer can save time and money in the long run by reducing the amount of work required for repeat incidents.
Alongside coatings we offer guidance on maintaining clean surfaces. Simple measures such as removing debris promptly keeping surfaces well lit and choosing durable paint or finish can reduce the rate at which graffiti adheres and makes future cleanups quicker and easier.
