It is possible to resurface porcelain sinks—in fact, it’s a smart thing to do for aesthetic and functional reasons. If your porcelain sink has scratches, chips, or dings, resurfacing or recoating it can make it look new and prevent further damage. Depending on your budget, the sink's value, the extent of the damage, and your DIY abilities, you can resurface the sink yourself or hire someone to do it. You can buy DIY porcelain sink resurfacing products at home improvement stores, and sink resurfacing contractors offer reglazing and recoating for sinks, bathtubs, and other porcelain surfaces.

Sink discoloration from water is caused by any of a number of different kinds of minerals in hard water, including iron and manganese. To avoid the staining that hard water can cause, install a water softener to remove minerals from the water as it enters your home. Rusty pipes can also cause discoloration, and may be the culprit if only one sink is stained.

The cost to professionally refinish hardwood floors averages $1,900. The total project cost typically ranges from $1,100 to $4,500 but can be as low as $600. On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $2 and $8, with an average of around $4 per square foot. For example, a small 10x10 foot room may cost $300 to $500, while a large 24x24 foot room could cost $1,750 to $2,900. Key factors influencing the price include the total area size, the floor's current condition, the type of wood, and the refinishing method. Different wood types have different costs; for instance, bamboo is more affordable at $2 to $6 per square foot, whereas maple and mahogany are more expensive at $6 to $8 per square foot. The method also matters: traditional sanding is dustier and costs about $3 to $8 per square foot, while dustless refinishing, which uses a vacuum to collect dust, costs more at $5 to $8 per square foot.
