Limescale is common in hard water areas and it can build up in areas like the toilet, around taps and on shower heads.
It can be unsightly and over time may even cause toilets to not work properly so it is best to tackle it as soon as possible.
Posting on the Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips Facebook group, one member asked for some advice.
Karen Bowes said: “I have an old downstairs toilet with bad limescale, what will get the stains out?”
Limescale can appear in a variety of colours but it usually appears pink or red in toilets.
It can be hard to shift, and it is often easier to prevent the problem than get rid of it.
Luckily, Mrs Hinch fans shared their top methods for trying to get rid of it.
Dawn Evened commented: “Use black Harpic bleach, it’s amazing.”
Sammie Prescott wrote: “Black Hapric down your toilet overnight, you can also buy the tablets which are great too.
“I used it three nights in a row when I moved into my new place and my toilet came up sparkling.”
Vicky Murden said: “Black Harpic is magical, it works instantly if the limescale isn’t too stubborn, and can also be left overnight.”
Harpic Power Plus Toilet Cleaner Gel can remove limescale, tough stains, ruse as well as dirt build-up. What’s more, it gets rid of 99.9 percent of germs too.
It can be picked up for as little as £1.20 in supermarkets as well as stores like B&M and Home Bargains.
White vinegar can also be used to tackle toilet limescale because of its high acidic content which softens limescale.
Simply pour undiluted white vinegar into the toilet bowl, making sure you get right under the rim where limescale often builds up.
Leave it for three to four hours before scrubbing it with a brush and flushing it.
