Kitchen Tiling

Hi all, should I take the tiles down along the cabinet to the floor? or just paint the wall.

Thanks!

I would have thought that painting in white similar to base unit would give a cleaner finish and allow eye to follow the horizontal line of units uninterrupted.

Perhaps I am wrong though.

Kitchen tile stickers - any experience/advice?
Q
Comments (0)
I have painted my kitchen cabinets and pondering what to do with the tiles. I could paint them but am a bit nervous about it as the grout lines are quite wide and I wonder how it will look. Also considering decent quality stickers with a glass spashback for the hob. Has anyone used tile stickers? How do they look? I can't afford to re-tile currently so looking for an interim solution. Photo is of the new colour units (not finished yet as you can see!) thank you!

Fishscale tiles are very Moroccan, especially in a turquoise shade. Mexican in much more colourful and patterned. Have you looked on Pinterest? Great place for ideas, as it Instagram. Here’s some ideas

Hello,

I wouldn't need to be tiled, and wouldn't even have any functionality either. It's down to your personal taste what you decide. Personally I would not tile it.

Floor looks amazing by the way!

get a piece of the cabinet and use that to fill the gap.I painted the gap that I had and it looks rubbish.

There is no need to tile it, but tiling the area makes it look thought out and intentional.

Personal choice, really - I would be tempted to use a thin strip of end panel. And put up a hook for a dishtowel! Though I would have made sure the gap didn't exist in the first place!! ;-)

Rather than tile it all, consider running the tiles around the kitchen units to give the impression that they are behind. Use spacers to ensure your units don't put pressure on the role edges. Doing this will give a more finished look on a reduced budget. It will also enhance the ability to clean down easily.

Definitely tile it.
I had exactly the same dilemma a few years ago in my utility room and didn't tile. I saw that strip of painted wall every time I went to the back door and it never ceased to bug me from at day until we recently moved!
