Hard water stains and mineral buildup — Los Angeles, California
White, chalky deposits on faucets, showerheads, glass doors, and tile are caused by dissolved calcium and magnesium in hard water. Beyond looking unsightly, mineral buildup restricts water flow in fixtures, reduces water heater efficiency, and etches into glass surfaces permanently if left too long. A professional deep cleaning can remove existing buildup, and a plumber can install a water softener to prevent it from coming back.
