Hi
had a new concrete driveway with new red brick boader and criss cross design, had done around last december...
The red brick is getting this white stain on all the bricks, scrbbing the bricks gets some off but then it comes back again.
Is this white stuff a residue of the drying process?
How should it be managed?
thanks

You can search the word "EFFLOURESCENCE" online and find out exactly what you have and various remedys to treat it.
Basically, I think you should let it run it's course. If you keep washing and scrubbing, you're pushing it back in.
I know it's not pretty, but probably patience will be best in this application.
Good luck.
