Perth Graffiti Removal
Graffiti removal
I remove graffiti from brickwork, limestone, painted walls and other surfaces.
From a small tag to a large wall, I’m Michael and I do all the work myself.
I travel across Perth from Mandurah to Joondalup, and further for larger jobs.
The removal method depends on what was used to make the graffiti and the surface it’s on.
Before I start, I’ll explain what I expect to remove and whether any marks may remain.
I also specialise in removing paint spills.
I offer same-day graffiti removal. If you need it gone urgently, give me a call.

Questions about graffiti removal
Someone has tagged my property. What should I do?
It’s best to leave the graffiti alone and get in touch. The right treatment depends on both the graffiti and the surface underneath. Unsuitable products or methods can make it harder to remove or leave a stain.
If the graffiti is offensive, a tarpaulin or similar temporary covering can hide it until I get there. Avoid painting over it, as the extra layers take more work to remove and increase the cost.
Fresh graffiti is usually easier to remove, and in my experience, cleaning it off promptly can help discourage more tagging, although it can still happen again. I offer same-day removal if you need it gone quickly.
How do you remove graffiti from brick and stone?
I use specialist chemicals on brickwork, limestone and other stone surfaces. These soften the paint so it can be removed. Hot water helps soften it further and wash it away.
Can you remove old graffiti?
Yes. Older graffiti can still be removed, although fresh graffiti is usually easier. The longer graffiti is left, the more chance some paints and inks have to stain, depending on the surface underneath. Weathering can also affect how the surface looks after removal.
Will any marks or shadows remain?
Graffiti usually comes off completely. Where the paint or ink has stained the surface, a very light shadow can remain after the graffiti itself has been removed. Further treatment may reduce it, but repeatedly treating the same spot can start to damage the underlying surface. I aim to get the best result without damaging the surface, rather than chase the last trace of a mark at its expense.
A difference caused by weathering is separate from a remaining stain. Over time, the exposed surface can weather differently from the area covered by graffiti. Removing the graffiti won’t undo that difference. I’ll explain what result to expect before I start.
What if the graffiti is on a painted surface?
On painted surfaces, painting over the graffiti is often the most practical option because removing it can also affect the paint underneath. Without the right sealer, graffiti can bleed through the new paint. I seal it first, then paint over it, matching the colour as closely as I can.
Even with a close colour match, the repair is still a patch. Weathered paint is difficult to match, and an even finish requires repainting the whole wall or surface.
Can you remove graffiti from Colorbond, cars and buses?
Colorbond and vehicle paintwork have layered finishes, with different paint and protective coatings. Some types of graffiti can be removed from these finishes without damaging the paint underneath. Whether that’s possible depends on the paint, ink or other material used to make the graffiti and the exact type of vehicle finish or Colorbond it’s on.
What other surfaces can you clean?
I can remove graffiti from glass, tiles, metal, vinyl signs and all sorts of other surfaces.
Get in touch and I can advise you on the best approach based on my experience.
