Keep Your Sink Working Like New

A quality kitchen sink can last 10–15 years—but only with proper care. Whether it's stainless steel, quartz, or ceramic, maintenance makes all the difference.


Before Installation: What to Check

  • Choose the Right Space: Leave at least 3cm around the edges to prevent countertop cracks.

  • Inspect Accessories: Ensure the drain, seal rings, and fittings are intact.

  • Use the Right Sealant: Apply mildew-resistant silicone, and let it fully cure (no weight for 24 hours).

  • Material-Specific Tips:

    • Stainless Steel: Avoid strong acids.

    • Quartz: Protect from heavy impacts.


Daily Maintenance Tips

  • Dry After Use: Wipe down the sink, especially edges, to avoid scale buildup.

  • Avoid Heat Shock: Don’t place hot pots directly in the sink.

  • Handle With Care: Place heavy objects gently to avoid cracks or dents.


When Your Sink Needs Attention

Watch for these signs:

  • Slow Drainage: Use a 1:1 mix of baking soda and white vinegar, followed by hot water.

  • Dull Surface:

    • Stainless Steel: Apply olive oil with a soft cloth.

    • Quartz: Use a suitable cleaner.

  • Blackened Seams: Remove old silicone and re-seal with mildew-proof glue.


Quick Monthly Deep Clean

  • Wipe stains with lemon slices.

  • Clean pipes with coarse salt and hot water.

  • Press along the sink edges—check for cracks.


One Habit That Adds Years

Spend just 30 seconds drying your sink after use—it prevents 80% of limescale problems.
