Restore the Strength and Beauty of Your Brick and Stone

Brick and stone surfaces add timeless character to any property, but over time, dirt, moss, algae, and mineral buildup sink deep into the surface, leaving behind stains, discoloration, and structural wear. If left untreated, trapped moisture can weaken mortar, cause cracks, and lead to expensive damage. At Texashine Property Solutions, we don’t just clean brick and stone—we restore them. Using low-pressure soft washing and eco-friendly treatments, we safely lift stains, eliminate buildup, and bring back the natural color and texture of your masonry without causing damage.

Signs Your Brick and Stone Need Professional Cleaning

  • Dark streaks or discoloration make masonry look aged.
  • Moss, algae, or mildew growing in damp, shady areas.
  • White chalky residue (efflorescence) from mineral deposits.
  • Cracked or crumbling mortar from moisture retention.
  • Slippery surfaces on patios, walkways, or driveways.

If your brick or stone surfaces look dull, stained, or weathered, it’s time for a professional deep clean to restore their beauty and protect them for years to come.

Brick and Stone Require Specialized Care

Pressure Washing Can Cause More Harm Than Good
Unlike smooth siding or concrete, brick, and natural stone are highly porous. While pressure washing may seem like a quick solution, using high pressure on masonry can:
  • Erode mortar joints, weakening the structure
  • Permanently roughen stone surfaces, making them more prone to staining
  • Force water deep into the surface, leading to cracks and freeze-thaw damage

That’s why we use soft washing, a low-pressure, high-effectiveness method that gently removes dirt, stains, and buildup without damaging your masonry.

Moisture is the Biggest Threat to Masonry

Brick and stone are durable, but moisture is their biggest enemy. When algae, moss, and dirt trap water inside the material, it accelerates erosion and structural deterioration.

Our cleaning process removes organic buildup at the root, reducing moisture retention and preventing long-term damage.

Erase Stains and Restore Natural Color
Masonry can collect a variety of stains, including:
  • Dirt and dust from environmental exposure.
  • Algae, moss, and mildew grow in shaded or damp areas.
  • Efflorescence (white chalky stains) from mineral deposits.
  • Black streaks and discoloration from pollution and water runoff.

We use targeted treatments to safely lift even the toughest stains without damaging the brick or stone’s natural beauty.

Why Invest in Professional Masonry Cleaning?

Protect the Strength of Your Brick and Stone
Dirt and moisture don’t just make masonry look dirty—they weaken the structure over time. Regular cleaning prevents long-term damage and erosion, keeping your stone and brick strong and durable.
Improve Curb Appeal and Property Value
Nothing makes a home or business look older than stained, weathered masonry. Professional cleaning instantly enhances curb appeal, making your property look fresh, well-maintained, and inviting.
Prevent Expensive Repairs
When left untreated, moss, algae, and efflorescence can lead to cracking, crumbling mortar, and weakened brick joints. Professional cleaning prevents these issues and extends the life of your masonry.
Reduce Slip Hazards on Walkways and Patios
Moss and algae buildup on brick and stone create dangerous slip hazards, especially after rain. Our cleaning process removes this slick buildup, keeping outdoor surfaces safe for family, guests, and customers.

Mold, mildew, and algae release airborne spores, which can negatively affect air quality around your home. Regular cleaning removes these contaminants for a cleaner, healthier outdoor environment.
