What Is Brick Cleaning?
Restore Brick Without Damaging the Mortar
Brick is porous and the mortar between it is softer than the brick itself, so cleaning it takes a careful hand. Brick cleaning lifts dirt, mildew, moss, algae, and efflorescence — the chalky white mineral deposits that surface on brick — using controlled pressure and the right cleaners.
Too much pressure blows out mortar joints and pits the brick face. We dial in the approach to clean thoroughly while protecting the masonry, whether it's a home's exterior, a chimney, a patio, or a retaining wall. The result is brick that looks rich and clean again.
Xtreme Pressure Washing is based in Blue Springs, MO and serves the entire Greater Kansas City metro area. We are locally owned, fully licensed and insured and committed to delivering professional results on every job.

Common Questions
Brick Cleaning FAQ
Kansas City
Can pressure washing damage brick?
It can in the wrong hands — too much pressure blows out mortar and pits the brick. We use controlled pressure and the right cleaners so the masonry is cleaned safely.
What is the white chalky stuff on my brick?
That's efflorescence — mineral salts pushed to the surface by moisture. Plain water won't remove it, but the right treatment will.
Can you clean my chimney and retaining walls too?
Yes. Chimneys, columns, steps, retaining walls, and brick veneer are all surfaces we clean with a masonry-safe approach.
Will it remove moss and green stains?
Yes — we pre-treat moss, algae, and mildew so they're killed at the root and lift away, not just rinsed off.
How often should brick be cleaned?
Every couple of years suits most Kansas City brick, more often for shaded or north-facing walls that grow moss and algae faster.
