# How to Remove Water Marks on Marble Floors
Marble floors remain shiny when cared for properly. Stains such as water spots or rings can form on the floors due to hard water. When the water dries on the surface, it creates a mineral crust on the marble. Water marks may leave an odd discoloration that makes the floor appear dirty. Marble can become scratched or ruined easily, so the water marks need to be removed carefully.
