Sweep your brick paver surface regularly
For the majority of circumstances, all you need to do is sweep your brick pavers. This will remove freestanding dirt that detracts from the beauty of the stone. Sweeping only takes a few minutes to do, and it instantly refreshes your paved areas.
Make sure to sweep the bricks after you mow the yard. Fresh lawn clippings can stain brick pavers. Though, if you do not want to sweep, you could use a leaf blower to move the clippings to the yard instead.
Rinse mud and stuck-on dirt with water
If you have a muddy section on your pavers, you can wash that off with a garden hose. Just put your finger over part of the opening, so the water comes out at a slightly higher pressure. If you have an attachment that does this for you, use that to gently push the mud off the pavers.
For particularly stubborn messes, you can wash the pavers off with dish soap and water. If you have a grease stain on the brick, let the soap sit for several minutes before rinsing it off. You could also get your pavers power-washed, but that is not necessary for most cleaning jobs.
