Graffiti Removal Los Angeles and Central Valley Services
Graffiti is an unfortunate—but still very real—issue for businesses, homeowners, and commercial property owners throughout Los Angeles and the Central Valley. That’s why professional graffiti removal in Los Angeles continues to be in high demand for property owners who want to protect their image and keep their spaces clean and welcoming. In fact, Los Angeles alone received 343,246 graffiti removal requests in 2021, showing just how widespread and persistent the problem has become.
While some graffiti is created as a form of artistic expression, it is also commonly used by gangs and vandals to “tag” or claim territory. Regardless of intent, graffiti placed without the property owner’s permission is vandalism—and it can damage your image, reduce property value, and create concerns about safety.
This isn’t only a Los Angeles problem. Many Central Valley communities—especially high-traffic areas near shopping centers, public spaces, warehouses, schools, and transit corridors—experience increasing graffiti activity as well. Cities like Fresno, Bakersfield, Stockton, Modesto, and Visalia frequently deal with tagging on walls, fences, roll-up doors, and commercial storefronts, making fast removal critical.
Graffiti can also make current and potential customers question whether your property is safe, well-managed, or located in an area with high crime. You don’t want clients or tenants hesitating to enter your business—or judging your property before they even step inside.
Protect your property, maintain a professional appearance, and remove vandalism quickly with our expert graffiti removal services.

Our Graffiti Removal Pressure Washing Process
Unfortunately, many business owners have to deal with graffiti at some point in time. Depending on the location of the graffiti can severely impact the property value of a building and also negatively impact the way clients and customers perceive a business. This is one of the reasons why graffiti needs to be removed as soon as possible to mitigate damage. Los Angeles Pressure Washing Inc. has years of experience removing graffiti. Here’s our general graffiti removal process:
We utilize pressure-washing equipment that can remove graffiti from several surfaces. The first step to graffiti removal is knowing what material it is on. It could be concrete, metal, glass, wood, plastic, etc. Understanding the material the graffiti is on will determine how much pressure is needed from our pressure washing tools. Our graffiti removal specialists tune the pressure so that the graffiti is removed, but the actual material itself is not damaged.
Depending on the material that the graffiti is on also determines which type of cleaner is used. Our team applies cleaner to the area that has graffiti and sits on the area for some time to set in. We will then use our pressure washer to spray and take the graffiti off.
Graffiti can be removed most of the time with the right equipment and proper cleaner. But having it done correctly is important to ensure that your property is not damaged in the process. This is why it’s important to hire a professional who has the skill to ddo thejob correctly.

Whether it’s on a fence, in a parking garage, or on your actual building – we can help you remove it. Get your graffiti removed fast! Contact Los Angeles Pressure Washing Inc. today!
The Factors You Must Consider To Remove Graffiti in LA
Removing graffiti may seem simple enough, but if done incorrectly, it can damage the surface of your building, sidewalk, wall, fence, etc. Graffiti removal requires the right tools, cleaning supplies, and expertise to be done correctly. Here are a few factors that go into ensuring that graffiti removal is successful.
Graffiti Type: Graffiti can be done with different materials. Sometimes it’s done with paint, other times it’s done with types of ink. The type of graffiti will determine what type of cleaning solutions will need to be used.
Surface Material: As mentioned earlier, the type of material that the graffiti is on will decide how much pressure our pressure washers will need to use. Too little pressure and the graffiti will not come off the surface. Too much pressure and you’re risking damaging your surface. Depending on, whether it’s glass, concrete, wood, metal, etc., will determine how much pressure is required.
Some materials are more porous than others and can require different cleaners too, because they’re more likely to penetrate the material. Bricks, stone, and wood are more porous and can be difficult to remove graffiti from. One of the reasons it is important to have graffiti removal done quickly is that the longer it sits on the surface, the more damage the graffiti may potentially do.
Time: The longer that graffiti has been on your property, will affect how challenging it is to remove and how successful the results will be. It’s much harder to remove graffiti that has a long time to sit on a property. If your home, business, or property has recently been vandalized with graffiti, contact us today!
Temperature: Heat plays a major role in how difficult graffiti is to remove in both Los Angeles and the Central Valley. During the summer months, high temperatures can cause paint and ink to cure faster and bond more deeply to surfaces, making removal more challenging.
What About Graffiti on Windows?
Unfortunately, graffiti isn’t limited to walls—vandals will often target glass windows and storefronts throughout Los Angeles and the Central Valley. The type of graffiti applied plays a major role in both the removal method and the final results. While paint, marker, and adhesive residue can typically be removed successfully, some forms of graffiti—such as etching or scratching—can cause permanent damage to the glass.
That’s why it’s important to work with experienced professionals. At Los Angeles Pressure Washing Inc., our graffiti removal specialists use the proper cleaning solutions, safe pressure levels, and surface-specific techniques to remove graffiti from glass windows as effectively as possible—while minimizing the risk of damage.
