Garden hose will help – for a while
Remember, a garden hose is good for small fixes but hardcore dirt and fungi will need a good pressure wash. For example, if you want to remove an old stain from the wall or clean your bricks after painting them, the force of the pressure washer will blast away any dirt or residue left behind —and it won’t damage your bricks! If you want to be thorough, move closer or further back until you find what works best for your particular situation.

If you find any cracks, contact a professional contractor to investigate and repair the damage.
