Cleaning expert demonstrates out to clean your toilet
A clean toilet is not only better to look at, but it can also prevent blockages from building up as well as limescale, which is a chalky substance containing mainly calcium carbonate.
It is common in hard water areas and can be visible in showers, in kettles or in the toilet, appearing brown and discoloured over time.
Posting on the Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips Facebook page, an anonymous group member wrote: “Have these brown stains all around the rim of the toiler and I can’t seem to get rid of them.
“I recently moved to the house and it was worse than before and it’s driving me mad.
“I’ve heard it’s because of the hard water here. Can anyone suggest anything that’ll help to remove it?”

It can be incredibly stubborn to shift and may take several attempts to achieve a shining and clean toilet bowl.
One group member commented: “Harpic black will do the trick, I won’t use anything else on my toilets now. Leave it for an hour and your toilet will be sparkling.”
Dawn Evened commented: “Use black Harpic bleach, it’s amazing, no scrubbing required.”
Sammie Prescott wrote: “Black Hapric down your toilet overnight, you can also buy the tablets which are great too.”

Harpic Power Plus Toilet Cleaner can be purchased from many retailers, including supermarkets for around £1.
The description of the product reads: “Did you know that bleach disinfects but leaves limescale, home to germs, behind?
“Harpic Power Plus with its unique formula removes tough limescale and gets rid of germs, even the ones you cannot see.”
Other Mrs Hinch fans recommended using Coke since the acid in the fizzy drink reacts with the limescale and helps to dissolve it.

Sammie Prescott said: “Coke is a good trick if you haven’t tried that, don’t need an expensive brand. If not, you may need to empty the water.”
To use Coke, it is important to get a bottle of full fat to get the full effects, pouring it down the toilet before leaving it overnight.
