Restoring Glass on Retail and Commercial Properties
We offer a professional graffiti removal service to restore your glass defaced by Graffiti damage across properties in London.
Graffiti on your glass is more than an eyesore. It can affect customer confidence, your brand image, and even how safe the premises feels; especially if the message is offensive or discriminatory.
Alongside the cost of removal, we realise the operational disruption it can cause you as it takes up your time as you arrange cleaning, meeting reporting requirements and any admin for insurers or landlords. If left unresolved, vandalism can also lead to further damage, increase in insurance costs, and could put off prospective buyers or tenants if the property is being sold or leased.
Get in touch today and we'll make it simple. With one call or email, we can provide a free, no obligation quote and confirm an attendance date. We'll restore your frontage promptly, so your premises look professional and your reputation is protected.
What is Acid Etched Graffiti? Acid etched graffiti is usually caused by someone marking the glass with their 'tag' using hydrofluoric acid, a corrosive chemical. This can leave a wider, coloured mark on the glass, and may form a stubborn 'crust'. You may also notice that the 'tag' has runs or drip marks that travel down the pane towards the frame. Whilst the graffiti remains on the glass, the chemical reaction continues, and the damage often becomes more severe the longer it is left on. Early removal can make a real difference.
Can Acid Etched Graffiti be Removed from Glass? This type of damage cannot be removed using standard cleaning products. It will require specialist glass polishing to remove the 'tag' and restore your glass. If you have spotted this type of graffiti on your windows, shopfronts or doors, contact us today. We will provide a free no-obligation quotatin and advise the next steps.
