Can damaged bricks be parged?

You might have to use a 'rendering' process first. It would seal up the bricks so they wouldn't deteriorate again.

Can this be parged?

The 2-course brick walls framing the front steps are crumbling, yet the brick on the Circa 1980 home are in excellent shape. It almost looks like an inferior brick was used on the porch steps. Can parging and painting by a professional seal and save the porch sidewalls?

course? coarse?
