Kitchen Tile Backsplash dilemma

11 September, 2014

Hi. I need advice on a tile backsplash for my kitchen. I would like to use a tile rather than a mosaic. Any ideas on tile colour, texture and size? I added a picture to give you an idea. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Since you have an interesting assortment of finishes, and color, why not stay with the same concept for your backsplash? I added two pictures.

Thank you very much. I love both of them....but the one on the right looks like it will just fit in great. I am open for more ideas still.

An upstand sits on the worktop and is around 4" high. A splashback normally fits behind the hob area to prevent splashes ruining the wall. You can have one or both fitted.

Thank you all for the feedback. The gaps between the brick slips would be the same as between the bricks Colourhappy. It sounds like the marble quartz is winning! It does look lovely, I just wanted to make the most of the bricks on that wall too, but in practice they would probably be a pain to look after behind the hob. Thank you for the compliment Lifestyle Kitchens, I'm excited to see how the finished kitchen turns out.

Hi, What sort of look are you after? And what colour is the worktop? I'm not a big fan of tiles in the kitchen ever since we installed a splashback which is ever so easy to clean and you have no worry about grout lines. I'd consider a neutral coloured splashback, maybe a greige? or a antique, distressed effect mirror splashback to bounce light.

Upstand behind hob with tiled backsplash?
Q

Running the upstand behind the hob looks absolutely fine, seen it plenty of times and customers have always been happy, the only slight downside is large pans and woks can be up against the upstand as its thicker than your tiles but thats being really picky. Personnally i prefer this look then stopping the upstand, then stepping back for your splashback tiles and then stepping forward again and restarting the upstand and its easier to keep clean as well with no little corners for dirt to get trapped.

Just an update on the backsplash dilemma that I had...I finally managed to find something nice and worthwhile. My dad and I did the tiling which was a steep learning curve as I never did this before in my life. But its an amazing feeling when you do something and it works out well in the end.

Hi, I think the large tiles dont work very well, I have something similar on my profile which is a Topps tile in grey.green with charcol grouting. Jackie

ps Dont think a square tile works, but I would go for a brick style.
