Dayco Cleaning were instructed to carry out a specialist graffiti removal service using specialist DOFF cleaning techniques at an award-winning mansion block in Southwark.
The objective was to safely complete the graffiti removal on a sensitive, high-value façade without causing any damage, restoring the building’s premium appearance and protecting its architectural integrity.
The building’s prestigious façade and adjacent brick archway leading to private gardens had been heavily vandalised with graffiti, requiring urgent and delicate graffiti removal.
Key challenges included:
All graffiti removal work was required to comply with BS 8221-1:2012 for surface cleaning and the Control of Pollution Act 1974 for environmental safety.
To meet the strict no-damage requirement, we implemented a specialist DOFF cleaning method for precise and effective graffiti removal.
A full site assessment identified the extent of graffiti and confirmed that DOFF cleaning was the only suitable method for the sensitive stone façade.
We deployed a DOFF Superheated Steam Cleaning System, operating at 150°C with low pressure. This method allows for controlled graffiti removal without damaging delicate surfaces.
A specialist team of two trained technicians carried out the graffiti removal work. The superheated steam of the DOFF cleaning solution thermally broke down the paint bonds, and low pressure ensured no erosion or damage to the brickwork
The graffiti removal was completed in controlled sections for precision, and all residue was immediately captured to prevent runoff and contamination
Our DOFF cleaning approach ensured safe, compliant, and highly effective graffiti removal on a prestigious building.
Following the successful graffiti removal, the management company recognised the effectiveness of our DOFF cleaning approach and attention to detail.
As a result, Dayco Cleaning were awarded a portfolio-wide contract for reactive cleaning across multiple premium London properties, and the project was highlighted in resident communications as an example of proactive, high-quality property management.
If your property requires safe, effective graffiti removal, our specialist DOFF cleaning service delivers outstanding results without compromise.
