Need help on kitchen splashback area please!!
Comments (5)Hi rubydiffey, I agree with Kharis & Kale, a metro tile would be great using a couple of colours to create a pattern and some interest. There is another company that uses a slightly different shaped tiles to create a pattern in the tiles. You could add a second colour to it too if you wanted. http://www.rep-tiles.co.uk/ Let us know how you get on. The team at Modus Kitchens...See Moreurgent splashback advice needed
Comments (9)Like the second idea and that’s for the sketches! the mirror we have has a frosted edge around it and unfortunately, is one where the whole unit hangs on the wall (as opposed to ones I’ve had which you fix the back panel on first then slot the mirrored part over it so you can tile up to it. I’m not sure exactly where it’s going to sit on the wall yet as it needs wiring in so the tiles around would have to be done at a later date - awkwardly, ha ha. Shame I didn’t think about that beforehand! Looking at some of the offcuts we have though, we could create smaller tiles and have 3 up and 6 going across. Do you think that would work better than one full and a half tile? The width of the sink shelf only takes one full tiles and 3/4 tile (unfortunately the wood tiles I was buying were discontinued so I’ve got LVT to go across the front and using the wall tiles on the top where the sink instead. Not thought about using the vinyl tiles on the wall though! What an idea!. Not sure I will have enough though as only ordered enough for the WC wall.

Comments (9)Sure, here are a few tips for painting a kitchen splashback: Make sure the surface is clean and dry before you start painting. Use a degreaser to remove any greasy residue, and sand the surface lightly to create a rough texture for the paint to adhere to. Use a high-quality paint designed for kitchen use. A satin or semi-gloss finish is durable and easy to clean, but you can also use a gloss finish for a more reflective look. Use painter's tape to protect any areas you don't want to paint, such as the countertops or backsplash tiles. Use a small foam roller or a paintbrush to apply the paint in thin, even coats. Allow each coat to dry completely before applying the next. Use a small paintbrush to touch up any areas that the roller may have missed. Once the paint is dry, remove the painter's tape and touch up any areas that may have gotten paint on them. Allow the paint to cure for at least 24 hours before using the splashback area. Remember to always follow the manufacturer's instructions on the paint tin, and wear protective gear such as gloves and a mask when painting. Should be a good starting point.... without any further information provided....See More- 9 years ago
