Although some would consider it more as a form of street art, business owners are typically frustrated by graffiti as it defaces their business and decreases property value. Graffiti is a serious issue, and costs the Australian community around $200 million every year. If you notice graffiti on your business property, you should consider contacting a cleaning service immediately as graffiti removal within the first 24 hours can remove the most graffiti and can deter future graffiti artists. This article will focus on techniques that are employed by cleaning agencies to remove graffiti and preventative strategies that can be implemented.

Preventing vandals from defacing your property with graffiti can be incredibly difficult. Your best chances of getting the graffiti completely removed is to contact a commercial cleaning company immediately when you notice the graffiti.
