Graffiti Removal

Vandalism on public assets, historic brickwork, and retail facades requires swift, thorough removal that doesn't leave permanent ghosting or chemical residue. Traditional high-pressure washing often forces pigments deeper into porous surfaces or damages mortar joints.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can lasers remove graffiti from porous brick and sandstone?
Yes. Porous masonry is notoriously difficult because paint absorbs deep into the stone pores. High-pressure washing often leaves ghosting shadows, but laser cleaning vaporises paint pigment deep within the pores, ensuring complete removal without damaging the stone.
Is there a risk of creating toxic fumes?
No. Our systems are equipped with close-capture vacuum extraction and high-efficiency HEPA filters that capture the vaporised paint particles and fumes directly at the nozzle, ensuring the air and local environment remain safe.
