    The wall around our garden is a bit of a mess and needs washing down. Was just going to powerwash it but was told to treat it with something first to help remove the moss and grime.
    Anyone got any suggestions as to what I could use? There's no grass or plants in the vicinity of the wall,so something strong shouldn't be an issue

    To be honest I would power wash it first then see what's left.

    Just be carefull that you dont lift off any mortar or plaster/render from the powerwshing.

    Its been known to happen when the power washer lance is put too close to the wall and the jet is on its strongest setting.Its also on the soundness of the wall and its mortar/render


    A bit of diluted bleach solution sprayed onto the wall and left for a while to work,will remove the grime and moss.

    Then wash down the wall with the power washer.

    I would use a garden hose, bucket and brush myself.
