Why Reglaze a Sink Instead of Replacing It?

For construction professionals, understanding the benefits of sink reglazing over replacement is crucial. Reglazing offers a cost-effective solution, often saving 60-75% compared to full replacement. This process avoids demolition and plumbing modifications, reducing labor hours significantly. For example, a two-sink bathroom can be completed in three to four hours, compared to a full-day tear-out. The average cost ranges from $325-$450 per sink, depending on regional labor rates and materials.

Environmental Benefits

Reglazing is environmentally friendly, diverting 30-40 lbs of waste per sink from landfills. It also reduces the need for new materials, cutting CO2 emissions. VOC-compliant coatings meet strict regulations, ensuring safety and sustainability.

CountBricks leverages AI to streamline the reglazing process. Our mobile app captures measurements and conditions in real-time, matching them to regional labor rates and materials. This results in instant proposals and automated scheduling, enhancing efficiency and accuracy.
