Glass backsplash caulking behind the sink

7 years ago

Hi, planning to use glass for my backsplash also but worried it will be difficult to maintain the caulking between sa glass behind the sink and the countertop. Will it not develop black molds later on the caulking just like in the bathroom shower closures?

Hi Eloisa. We have not experienced any mould building up between the glass and corian top. This is because the corian has an upstand approx 25mm high so removes the glass from sitting in water! Hope that helps

Hi Laura, thanks for posting. Wow, it looks amazing! Amazing how much difference the floor, splashback and mirror make, it's transformed. Well done. I'm struggling to like a splashback in my new kitchen (even though I chose it) so was looking for inspiration - my partner just doesn't get it and will probably leave me if I even dare to mention changing it :-)

Is this the upstand for the whole of the worksurface or a splashback behind a sink or hob? If it's the Upstand then i'd match the worktop. For the splashback, then match the type of surface to that of the worktop, ie, if it's gloss stay with gloss, if matt stay with matt. As long as the surfaces are easy to clean then staying within a style will keep the kitchen looking seemless.

Very smart transformation. Only thing I don't think is the logs which would gather dust and spiders! Rest is fabulous

Do you need a backsplash? What do you want from it? Colour, pattern, or just to protect the walls from splashes (the only reason I think makes sense!) I have no backsplash, my sink is against a wall but it's vinyl Matt and it wipes easily. My hob is on island so no backslash needed. If it's just for behind your hob you can use glass, so not obvious. I would suggest you wait til your kitchen units/worktop/floor is all fitted before deciding, it makes it easier!
