Replacing Corian sink with underhung stainless
Comments (4)Thanks for the tip, Jon. I've tried looking for other repair places, but the town isn't that large (Pensacola, FL) so my options are limited. I've only come up with two places so far that could do the work. I agree that repair would be preferable (especially as we might sell in the near future) but it's got to be done right. I'm glad to hear that there is a proprietary system for this repair. When I emailed Corian to ask that question, they just referred me to a company that didn't even have repair people in our area!...See Morecorian sink with granite counters?
Comments (35)igloochic : I totally agree with you!: I would personally only go with a Blanco or Franke (just my opinion) (I think the cheap cheap SS brands: like what is in apartments have to be the bad ones. I live in an apartment now: and my ss sink looks : not so good! I polished it: and waxed it and it looks better: yes it has sum rust: and I used grout & tile cleaner: worked! Not recommending that !!!!! lol!!!!! Lime and rust away: pretty much: it's stained a bit : more shine vs less shine: I waxed the sink: water rolls right off down the drain& sink surface looks better! LOL! I don't recommend that either: I did it because I wanted to: and it's an apartment!) My father inlaw has ss from 1971: it looks ok (SS) but I couldn't tell you what brand. It's scratched up a little bit & probably stained: meaning parts are have more shine vs. less shine. No rust! 37 years old! (I would replace it if it were my choice, because I like the Blanco Platinum Axis 6s W/int. Drainboard Drop In - 511-738 Even though it's a the drop in: but I like the features: I like it! Blanco Platinum Axis 6S with integal drainboard on left drop in sink //Features ://Bowl Depths: 7" x 5 1/8" //Fits in 27" Cabinet Space //Cutout Size: 38 3/8" x 19 1/16"//L: 13 3/8" x W: 39 3/8" //304 Series 18 Gauge Stainless Steel//Comes complete w/ overflow connection, st. steel colander with safe grip handles, safety sliding cutting glass board, 3 1/2" pop-up waste for the main bowl & 3 1/2" basket strainer) Also: about the Kohler sinks: cast iron: from 70's and 80's : my Dad was a customer home builder: he installed Kohler tubs, sinks, toliets and they looked brand new at all times. We had red, yellow, green, peach Kohler kitchen sinks: and red, black, green, peach vanity sinks: birthday bathtub: 2 of those: peach and red: They looked brand new until we moved out: (we lived in three different custom homes growing up that my Dad built) But: we were never allowed to have pots, pans, dishes or glasses ever sitting in the sinks. The sinks were always emptied. We were taught: use it, clean it, dry it and put it away: or put in dishwaser. My aunt has a $200 white kohler drop in kit sink: won't mention the model: I feel bad about that: but it's true: looks terrible!//1 year old: looks TERRIBLE! Stained within 2 months. Don't understand: not a $1000 sink. I personally like the SS: with SS appliances: I hated my corian sink: stained within a month or two! ~Happy Holidays~ (My Grandma was a firm believer in cleaning with Vinigar: raw lemons, baking soda, rubbing alcohol and a little bit of Dawn soap.) Not so good for granite! Ok for SS! To much acid and too much chemicals for natural stone! LOL *****I have heard 2 customers complain about their "granit" sinks: Lowes/HD brand: they hated them! they replaced them. They both said too hard to keep clean: but hey everyone is different!...See MoreCorian sink vs karran sink integrated to corian platinum
Comments (4)I've had the biggest singleCorian integrated sink now for about 12 yrs.. I put hot pans, straight from the stove in it. I dump all the frozen together ice from the ice maker in it (not at the same time as the hot pans!). I have never had ANY problems with this sink! My daughter had the same sink installed in her kitchen 8 years ag. She works and her husband is a SAHD and a total slob. Did I mention the two now teenaged sons? Believe me, that sink has seen it all and it looks as good as the day it was installed....See MoreCorian AND stainless sink
Comments (7)Some clarification. These are called mixa sinks the point is corian sides and a stainless steel bottom. You are correct this configuration is completely worthless. I'm trying to find out if a large single sink with corian sides and the stainless bottom is available in the US. They seem to be in Europe, the UK and Australia.......See MoreJoseph Corlett, LLC
