Signs It’s Time for a Sink Upgrade 

While nothing needs to be wrong to upgrade your sink to a more stylish, modern option – here are some signs it might be time to switch it out:

  1. Frequent clogs and slow drainageIf your sink is always getting clogged up and water drains slowly, this could indicate buildup in the pipes that may require replacing old pipes under the sink.
  2. Rust and corrosion Check underneath and along the edges of your stainless steel sink for rust spots or corrosion. This can happen over years of use and exposure to water and chemicals.
  3. Stains that won't go away If you have stubborn stains from food, grease or minerals that you can't scrub out, the sink's finish may be worn out beyond repair.
  4. Cracks or chips in the enamel Enamel sinks can develop small cracks and chips over time allowing water to seep in causing more extensive damage.
  5. WarpingExcessive heat or weight placed on a sink over many years can lead to warping of the basin shape causing drainage issues.
  6. Noisy operation Older sinks tend to become noisy as mounting hardware and pipes underneath loosen up from wear and tear and start to rattle when water runs.
  7. Outdated look If your kitchen has been updated but the old sink remains, completing the new look with a modern sink replacement can make sense.
  8. Need for greater functionalityIf you need a deeper basin, different shape, more basins, or added features like a drainage board, your existing sink may be limiting usage.
