Watermark

Cleaning your bricks is crucial for preserving their condition and averting corrosion caused by dirt, stains, or mold. Discover effective methods for surface-level cleaning or deep stain removal to keep your bricks looking pristine.

Method: Washing Bricks with Soap and Salt

Eliminate loose dirt by vacuuming or brushing it away. Use a scrub brush to remove surface-level dirt.

Spray water over the brick's entire surface to prevent dry bricks from absorbing soap.

Create a paste mixture using dish soap and salt. Apply it evenly onto the brick's surface and let it sit for 10 minutes.

Thoroughly scrub the brick with a brush in circular motions to lift dirt and stains.

Rinse off the paste with warm water to prevent corrosion.

Method: Cleaning Deep Stains with Boric Acid

Ensure proper ventilation and wear protective gear before starting. Lay down a drop cloth to protect surrounding areas.

Spray water on the brick's surface to prevent dryness.

Prepare a boric acid solution by diluting it in water. Scrub the brick after allowing it to sit for 5 minutes.

Wash off the acid with a damp cloth, ensuring no residue is left.

Dispose of any remaining boric acid according to local regulations.

Method: Pressure Washing Bricks

Acquire or rent a pressure washer to tackle stubborn stains effectively.

Spray the brick's surface with the pressure washer from a distance of 12–18 inches, working from the bottom upward.

Apply a mild cleaner or dish soap solution to the surface and let it sit for 5-10 minutes.

Rinse off the cleaner thoroughly with the pressure washer to prevent corrosion.

By following these methods, you can maintain the cleanliness and integrity of your bricks, restoring their luster and prolonging their lifespan.
