How do i remove a black stain on an external wall which was caused by leaking pipe?

Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 2.40 PM

A leaking pipe has caused a black 'shadowy' type stain on an external roughcasted wall. Is this stain mould growth? How do i get rid of it without all the roughcast stones falling off?

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

A weak brick acid mix applied with a paint brush may loosen the stain and repeating this procedure could loose the stain all together. (the stain sounds like it is a form of mould growth or liken)
