How Do You Remove Water Stains From Brick Floors?
Water stains on brick floors tend to appear somewhat mysteriously. You may not even be able to tell where they are coming from because they tend to a be a result of hard water or deposits in the brick that cause a white substance called “efflorescence” to build up in damp areas and cause stains. If you catch these stains early on, they can usually be removed via pressure washing and scrubbing. However, if they have been in place for more than a few days, you will need a tougher, more acidic solution to dissolve the stains. Sweep the entire bricked area; otherwise, you may just create a muddy mess when you start cleaning. Mix 1 gallon of vinegar and 1 gallon of water. Keep some additional vinegar that is uncut nearby. Use the push broom to apply the vinegar solution and scrub the stains. You should start to see the buildup loosening and dissolving. Keep scrubbing until it is all gone. Rinse periodically with the garden hose so that you can see what you are doing. Tackle tough stains wit
