The kitchen sink fell out at my Mom's house and we obviously needed attention to it right away. NAG plumbing was able to fit us into their schedule and Nick was done fixing it in an hour or so. We're super grateful to him. Nick's a good guy. We're putting him on speed dial for any future...

Sink Reglazing questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

It is worth it to refinish a porcelain sink. The refinishing process involves stripping away the old finish, repairing any damage, and applying a new finish. While it is a bit of a process, it is usually much cheaper than replacing the sink. Refinishing can restore the sink’s beauty for another 10 to 15 years. The process can also fill in small hairline cracks that could otherwise cause structural damage.

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.

Using squeegees with microfiber cloths and precise techniques ensures spotless results.
