Why Remove Graffiti Quickly?
When graffiti shows up on your property, time is not on your side. Here's why fast action matters for Atlanta property owners.
It Attracts More Vandalism
Studies show that graffiti left in place invites more graffiti. Vandals see it as a sign that no one is watching or cares. Remove it fast, and you send the message that your property is protected.
Property Values Drop
Graffiti makes neighborhoods look run-down. Whether you own a home or business in Atlanta, visible graffiti can lower property values and make it harder to sell or rent.
Your Image Suffers
For businesses, first impressions matter. Customers may think twice about entering a store with graffiti on the walls. For homeowners, it can embarrass you in front of neighbors and guests.
City Fines and Violations
Many cities in metro Atlanta require property owners to remove graffiti within a set number of days. Failing to do so can result in fines or code violations. We help you stay compliant.
Surfaces We Remove Graffiti From
Different materials need different cleaning methods. Using the wrong approach can damage your property. Our Atlanta graffiti removal team knows how to treat each surface safely.
Brick & Masonry
Brick is porous, which means paint soaks in deep. We use special chemicals and low-pressure washing to pull the paint out without harming the brick. This works great on older buildings in Atlanta and Marietta.
Concrete & Sidewalks
Concrete can handle more pressure, so we often use hot water pressure washing combined with graffiti removers. This is perfect for parking lots, foundations, and sidewalks.
Stucco Walls
Stucco is delicate and can chip or crack if cleaned wrong. We use soft wash methods and gentle chemicals to lift the paint without damaging the texture.
Metal Surfaces
Metal signs, doors, and fences need solvent-based cleaners that dissolve paint without scratching or dulling the finish. We restore metal surfaces to like-new condition.
Wood Fencing & Siding
Wood absorbs paint quickly, making it tricky to clean. We use the right solvents and techniques to remove graffiti while protecting the wood grain.
Vinyl & Aluminum Siding
Siding on homes throughout Roswell, Alpharetta, and Sandy Springs can be cleaned safely with our soft wash system. We remove the graffiti without warping or discoloring the siding.
Our Graffiti Removal Process
We follow a proven step-by-step process to remove graffiti safely and completely. Here's what happens when you call us at (404) 797-8115.
Assess the Surface
We look at what type of material was tagged and what kind of paint or marker was used. This helps us choose the best removal method.
Select the Method
Based on the surface and graffiti type, we pick the right combination of chemicals, pressure levels, and techniques.
Test a Small Area
Before cleaning the whole thing, we test our method on a hidden spot to make sure it won't cause damage.
Remove the Graffiti
We apply the cleaner, let it work, then wash or wipe away the paint. Stubborn spots may need a second pass.
Final Clean & Inspect
We rinse the area, check for any remaining marks, and make sure your surface looks clean and undamaged.
Graffiti Removal Methods We Use
There's no one-size-fits-all solution for graffiti. We use several different methods depending on the situation.
Chemical Graffiti Removers
We use professional-grade graffiti removal chemicals that break down paint at the molecular level. These are safe for most surfaces when applied correctly. The chemical is applied, allowed to sit, then wiped or washed away.
Pressure Washing
For tough graffiti on hard surfaces like concrete, we use hot water pressure washing. The combination of heat, pressure, and cleaning agents blasts away paint quickly. We adjust the pressure based on how delicate the surface is.
Soft Wash Cleaning
Some surfaces can't handle high pressure. For stucco, wood, and painted walls, we use soft wash methods with low pressure and specialized cleaners. This lifts the graffiti without damaging what's underneath.
Paint-Over Solutions
Sometimes the graffiti has soaked in too deep, or removal would damage the surface. In these cases, we can paint over the graffiti with color-matched paint so you'd never know it was there.
Types of Graffiti We Handle
Graffiti comes in many forms. Our team in metro Atlanta has experience removing all types.
Spray Paint
The most common type. Aerosol paint goes on thick and bonds fast. We have the tools and chemicals to remove it from almost any surface.
Permanent Markers
Sharpies and paint markers leave behind stubborn ink. Our solvents break down marker ink without spreading it around.
Stickers & Posters
Stuck-on stickers and wheat-pasted posters leave behind glue residue. We remove both the sticker and the sticky mess underneath.
Etchings & Scratches
Some vandals scratch into glass or painted surfaces. While we can't undo physical damage, we can often minimize its appearance or recommend repairs.
Anti-Graffiti Coatings: Stop Vandals Before They Start
Tired of cleaning up graffiti over and over? We offer anti-graffiti coatings that make future cleanup a breeze—or prevent paint from sticking at all.
Sacrificial Coatings
This clear coating sits on top of your wall. When graffiti is applied, both the coating and the paint are washed away together. Then we apply a fresh coat. It's like a protective shield you can replace as needed.
Permanent Coatings
These coatings create a non-stick surface that paint can't bond to. Graffiti wipes off with simple soap and water. The coating stays in place and keeps working for years. Great for businesses in Atlanta that get tagged often.
Ask us about adding anti-graffiti protection after your cleaning. It's a smart investment for properties in high-traffic areas of Marietta, Smyrna, and downtown Atlanta.
