I think most people who need this service are sat in an office and google is the most convenient - they might need to get up to get a phone book

i think it is mate.

Graffiti removal is expensive for your usual domestic customer, and it be be back there the next day, so people are reluctant to pay someone else to do it.

What services do you do Drive surgeon?

The problem is most local authorities do it themselves now and dont even sub it out. Where I am they have to have it removed within 3 days of it appearing even on private property.
