Brick House Washing

What This Service Involves

Brick may feel indestructible, but its porous surface and mortar joints hold moisture and grow organic stains readily in the shade. We apply a masonry-safe soft wash that clears algae, moss, and the white efflorescence that leaches from the brick over wet seasons. Excess pressure can erode aging mortar, so we rely on cleaning agents and a controlled rinse instead. The brickwork comes back with rich color and clean joints that hold up through the next rainy stretch.

Benefits

Our Process

1) Examine mortar joints and flag any that need repair; 2) Apply a masonry-safe cleaner across the brick face; 3) Allow the solution to lift growth and mineral deposits; 4) Rinse with controlled flow and inspect the joints

What Affects the Cost

Best Time of Year
