Graffiti Removal in Scarborough
Sandblasting Graffiti Removal in Scarborough, Ontario — with 44 freeze-thaw cycles annually and an average winter temperature of -4°C, local conditions directly impact graffiti removal methods and costs.
Sandblasting is not approved for Scarborough's heritage zones (Scarborough Village) — best reserved for industrial concrete, structural steel, and multi-layer overpainting where pressure washing fails. Our crews use softer media (walnut shell, baking soda) for visible architectural surfaces in Scarborough to avoid permanent texture loss, and capture all spent media on tarped containment.
Under the Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 485, property owners must remove graffiti within 3 days of notification. Our hourly rate in Scarborough ranges from $42–$80.
Heritage zones including Scarborough Village require specialized methods — only pH-neutral chemical removal or laser ablation are approved for protected surfaces.

Sandblasting (also called abrasive blasting or media blasting) uses compressed air to propel fine abrasive particles — silica sand, garnet, walnut shell, glass bead, or baking soda — at high velocity against graffiti-covered surfaces. The impact physically strips paint from the substrate, making it the most powerful mechanical removal method available.
