mineral diposit remover! charge them more for this service though! its not a standard maintenance clean anymore! you didnt cause this damage so they should make the gardener pay for it by rights really!!!

Charge a premium for cleaning this ...i.e an astronomically high figure say 50 quid a sq ft...I normally advise the customer that I have noticed this and normally that is the last time I have any dealings with it.

Cheers
Dave.
