Default Is there a way to remove a thin layer of concrete?

I hired a concrete contractor to lay some concrete blocks and frame a window
opening. In the process of mixing/pouring/forming the concrete, he spilled
quite a bit of concrete onto my deck which is red brick with black grout.
Now I have a thin layer of concrete on top of my deck about 40 square foot
or so. I mentioned it to him and he said I am responsible to prep the area
and I should know it's going to be messy.

I tried to scape it off and it's not coming off. I don't know if there is a
tool to chip them out or am I stucked with replacing my entire deck if I
can't find 40SF of matching bricks.

Stories like this make me sick. Are there no craftsmen left at all?
You're supposed to prepare the area for the slob? That guy needs to be
fitted for some concrete shoes.
