Graffiti Removal Melbourne Advice and Tips
Walking through the inner cities of the Australia, like Melbourne
and Sydney, you will regularly see the scribbling of ugly graffiti, or what is
known as 'tagging' on the street. Technically speaking, graffiti is the use of permanent
inks and paint spraying used to deface buildings and other surfaces, in non-authorized
places; it is a highly illegal activity.
The main problems it causes is lowering property values,
reducing business revenues (to cover costs for the graffiti removal) and giving
the impression that a certain area of a city is unsafe because of the
association graffiti has with the people who perform the act. I have put
together a list of things you can do to prevent or help correct the causes of
unlawful graffiti near you.
The graffiti removal process must happen sooner rather
than later. If graffiti removal happens within the first day of the attack then
the chances of it all being able to be removed are much higher as penetration
into the surface hasn't had the chance to happen yet. If you don't want to do
it yourself or don't feel you are able to reach the spot where this defamation
has happened then there are graffiti removal companies who are experts in this
and can deal with most problems, locations and scenarios.
In some areas or if a particular graffiti canvas is
considered good by the artist or artists, it is likely that as soon as the
graffiti removal is carried out some more will pop up within the same day! If
this is the case then it is worth making you aware that anti graffiti coatings
can be applied to problem areas (I will talk about these more in my next
article). Obviously, if you do have a problem area and it keeps happening, then
it might even be worth installing video surveillance cameras to your property.
A simple thing you can do to detract the criminals is to
install lights and even sensor lights to the problem area. This could help stop
it getting to the stage of graffiti removal as graffiti artists tend to strike
at night or in covered locations to perform their work as it can take time to
produce a piece - if they're in the light they probably won't try it as they
will be in serious trouble if they get caught.
If possible, you should make it as hard as possible for
the culprits to gain access to your property. Ideas include installing gardens
with thorny plants or shrubs near to or to cover garden walls. Taking the above
idea a step further you could install a sensor based sprinkler system so it
goes off when anybody graffiti's that area - this can wash away the paint
immediately and deter the vandals.
Some of the responsibility must start with the property
owner - look after your own property and make sure it looks clean and tidy. If
a property looks neglected it is more likely the vandals will think,
"Well, if anything this will make it look better". All in all, the
best strategy to prevent graffiti is immediate graffiti removal within a day of
it happening. It is always worth calling Graffiti Removal Melbourne companies out there who offer graffiti removal and anti
graffiti coating services, so look them up on Google!
