How to Remove Hard Water Stains
Hard water leaves chalky spots on glass, tile and fixtures. Here's how to remove the buildup common in Massachusetts homes.

Many Massachusetts homes deal with hard water, which leaves chalky white buildup on glass, chrome and tile. Here's how to clear it.
What causes it
Minerals like calcium and magnesium in the water dry onto surfaces and harden over time into stubborn spots.
How to remove it
- Apply a descaling cleaner or white vinegar
- Let it dwell to dissolve the minerals
- Scrub with a non-scratch pad
- Rinse and dry completely
Prevent it coming back
- Squeegee shower glass after use
- Dry fixtures after cleaning
- Wipe faucets regularly
Hard-water buildup is one of the top things our deep cleans tackle — leaving glass and fixtures genuinely clear again.
