Some 30/40 years ago my granddad build a detached carport roughly 20'x 35' posts were sinking, experiencing dry rot, or built without post baces. The carport itself was leaning to the point where water was flowing in the opposite direction of where the gutters were. And now I'm happy to say the...

Sink Reglazing questions, answered by experts

Do not clean paintbrushes or construction materials, such as grout-filled sponges, in your sink. These items can cause blockages in your pipes and lead to costly repairs.

Porcelain and enamel sinks have very similar appearances, but they aren’t the same. Porcelain is a ceramic made from natural clay, while enamel is a strong powder that’s glazed over a metal sink. Use a magnet to determine whether you have an enamel or porcelain sink. If a strong magnet sticks to the sink, it’s likely enamel. If it doesn’t, you probably have a porcelain sink. You can also use the model number on the sink (often found on the underside of the bowl) or information from the manufacturer to determine the material.

Leaks, clogged drains, cracked basins, and worn-out seals are common problems that may require professional repair.

Expect your stainless steel sink to last between 20 and 30 years on average. When well cared for, you can use your sink much longer, particularly if you protect it from rust. A new stainless steel sink costs anywhere from $200 to $1,500 including installation, so it's in your best interest to take extra care to ensure its longevity.

While it takes a pro about three to six hours to refinish a porcelain sink, the entire process may take up to three days when you factor in the time it takes for multiple coats of epoxy paint to dry. Ask your pro how long the project should take.
