This is one of the most common questions homeowners ask once their shower starts to look cloudy, dull, or uneven. In this project near Banyan Park in Grapevine, the natural stone shower had reached that exact point. The walls and pan were covered in visible hard water scale, and the darker stone made the buildup stand out even more.

The natural stone tile had lost its original look. Some areas appeared dull and flat, others showed uneven discoloration, and the grout lines had darkened to the point where they distracted from the entire space. Around the drain, where water tends to sit the longest, the buildup was the heaviest. There were also signs of failing joints and previous repairs that were no longer holding.

A homeowner in Wylie, Texas contacted Refresh Floor Care after becoming frustrated with the appearance of their shower glass. Over time the glass had developed a cloudy white haze that made the entire shower look dull and difficult to keep clean. No matter how often the glass was wiped down, the hard water spots and mineral buildup kept returning.
