Professional Cleaning for Long-Lasting Masonry Surfaces
Your home’s exterior faces daily battles against dirt, grime, mold, and weather elements. Neu’s Power Washing specializes in professional house washing and building washing services across southeastern Wisconsin, giving residential and commercial buildings a fresh, rejuvenated appearance. Why live with a home or business facade that’s dull and dingy when it can look inviting and vibrant?
Brick and stone siding offer timeless beauty, durability, and strong protection against the elements. But even these tough materials are not immune to staining, algae growth, and environmental buildup.
At Neu’s Power Washing, we specialize in safely cleaning brick and stone homes using the proper balance of cleaning solutions and controlled pressure. Our process removes years of buildup while protecting mortar joints and preserving the integrity of your masonry.
Why Brick & Stone Get Dirty
Unlike vinyl or metal, brick and stone are porous materials. That means contaminants don’t just sit on the surface — they can penetrate into the masonry and mortar joints, making professional treatment essential.
Common issues we see throughout Southeast Wisconsin include:
Green algae and moss growth
Black mildew staining
White mineral deposits (efflorescence)
Rust stains from irrigation or metal fixtures
Dirt and environmental discoloration
Using improper high pressure can:
Damage mortar joints
Etch softer stone
Force water into the wall system
Cause long-term structural concerns
Our Brick & Stone Cleaning Process
We use a carefully controlled soft washing method combined with masonry-safe cleaning solutions.
Our process includes:
Surface Inspection – Identifying mortar condition and problem areas
Property Preparation – Protecting landscaping and surrounding features
Targeted Cleaning Solution Application – Breaking down algae, mildew, and organic staining
Controlled Low-Pressure Rinse – Safely removing contaminants without damaging joints
Final Inspection – Ensuring even, consistent results
This approach removes buildup at the source while preserving your home’s structure.
Benefits of Professional Brick & Stone Cleaning
Cleaning Brick Homes
Brick is extremely durable, but the mortar between bricks is more vulnerable. Proper cleaning removes biological growth without weakening mortar joints or altering the natural appearance of the brick.
Professional brick cleaning:
Restores original color
Removes dark streaking and stains
Helps prevent moss-related mortar damage
Improves overall curb appeal
Cleaning Natural & Manufactured Stone
Natural stone and manufactured stone veneer require slightly different approaches. Some stones are softer and more susceptible to etching, while veneer systems require care to prevent water intrusion.
Our tailored cleaning methods safely remove:
Moss growth
Algae staining
Dirt buildup
Environmental pollutants
All without damaging the stone surface or mortar structure.
How Often Should Brick or Stone Be Cleaned?
For most homes in Southeast Wisconsin, we recommend:
Every 2–3 years for general maintenance
Every 1-2 years for heavily shaded or moisture-prone areas
Routine maintenance prevents deep staining and protects mortar over time.

Don’t Have Brick or Stone Siding?
Not every home has brick or stone siding—and that’s okay. Neu’s Power Washing safely cleans a wide range of exterior materials using methods tailored to each surface type. No matter what type of siding your home has, our team evaluates the material and condition first, then selects the safest and most effective cleaning method.
Vinyl Siding
Low-pressure soft washing removes algae and buildup without cracking or forcing water behind panels. We use the proper detergents and rinse methods to safely restore its finish without causing damage.
Wood & Composite Siding
Wood and engineered composite siding require a delicate touch. Too much pressure can cause splintering, gouging, or water intrusion. Our soft wash approach safely removes mildew, algae, and discoloration while protecting the integrity of the material.
Aluminum Siding
Aluminum siding is durable but prone to oxidation and streaking. We use the proper detergents and rinse methods to safely restore its finish without causing etching or surface damage.
