Kitchen cooker splash back or tile all around?
Comments (14)We vote tiles! If it was my kitchen (and mostly because I'm a messy cook) I would be inclined to tile (or glass backsplash) anywhere that might need to be wiped down-e.g. behind cooker, along any counters where I might be doing any food prep. This gives you plenty of options-you could tile behind cooker and counters in metro/subway tiles, but be careful as it could look busy with the granite and wood grain of kitchen-it will depend on the grout. Alternatively, you could use big clean glossy tiles like this marble look above....See MoreKitchen splash-back tiling dilemma
Comments (4)I agree with the builder, that work is shoddy and unprofessional and I would not be happy looking at that in my kitchen. It looks like a DIYer has completed it. In fact I call it a HUTH house! When I watch Homes Under the Hammer, often people buy a house and either do the work themselves or get their mates to refurbish and lots of them end up looking poorly finished for the low end rental market. Any chance that you could ask him to remedy the work though unlikely as you’ve already paid for it. Really sorry that this work was completed in this poor way....See MoreSplash back options
Comments (7)An upstand is the piece onto the wall and also sitting on your worktop. It’s around 4” high. Different people deal with it in different ways when adding something (splashback) to the wall. As Sarah L has said most don’t have the upstand when there is going to be some kind of splashback behind the hob so you may want to cut it out (if possible) and have the splashback direct on the worktop just behind the hob. Some keep both and add the splashback over the upstand which is what you may decide to do now it is already fitted....See Moresplash back for kitchen
Comments (5)Glass gives a modern look. Tiles can also look good and is a more traditional look....See More

7 years agoHello,
Gorgeous kitchen, can I ask who supplied it?
If you were my client I would suggest we look at a glass splash-back which will be fitting with your sleek and sophisticated scheme. Maybe a grey or white but it's hard to really see or get a feel for the design or kitchen without seeing it.
Also being all one its easier to clean that tiles with grouting of mosaic. Important in our busy lives.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Gina

7 years agoGlass splashbacks would be perfect to finish your kitchen as they are hard wearing and easy to keep clean. We use Decoglaze here at Alno Bristol as they offer a wide choice of options from glossy or satin, plain or textured and any colour of your choice including matched to any paint colour or can be printed with any image or photo!
You could either go full height all around for maximum impact or have a feature piece behind the hob with small upstand elsewhere if you wanted to paint the rest of the walls.
Here are some examples Alno kitchens with glass splashbacks
