How are mortar joints considered during brick graffiti removal?
Mortar joints require their own assessment because their strength and composition may differ from the brick. Weathered, friable or cracked pointing may be vulnerable to water, chemicals or mechanical action. The condition of the wall should inform whether treatment can proceed and where limitations apply.

Mortar joints require their own assessment because their strength and composition may differ from the brick. Weathered, friable or cracked pointing may be vulnerable to water, chemicals or mechanical action. The condition of the wall should inform whether treatment can proceed and where limitations apply.
A controlled trial can help assess the response of the brick and joints together. Nearby sealants, glazing, finishes and planting also need consideration, with runoff controlled according to the site. No universal pressure setting or cleaning recipe suits every masonry assembly.
If weak joints or other deterioration are identified, discuss the concern before wider cleaning. Repairs or specialist advice may be required separately. Graffiti removal is not repointing, structural restoration or confirmation that the masonry is sound; it removes suitable contamination within an agreed cleaning scope.
