My daughter's house has a rather nice walled garden - but the wall has no

thick - with the top of the wall laid with bricks across it.

I really feel we need to put some capping on the top to prevent more
water
and frost damage.

What would you suggest? Glazed brick? Stone?

Could the wall be cleaned as it looks a bit stained from water soacking
down it?

Coping stones. Wire brush


Thats going to mark the bricks.

or if necessary brick acid for the stains.


Thats only going to work with carbonate stains.
