If the wall in my basement is leaking very slightly, is the main/only solution to the actual water issue to add grading outside? What else?

It is under a deck, which I can rip up a bit and fill with dirt, but is that likely to solve it?

We noticed from slightly bubbling paint and efflorescence.

I have just heard that, for brick walls, stairstepping is really bad. Or cracks in a wall that connects to a crack in a floor.
