Removal of wall splash

last year

If I have the countertops installed without a tile splash, will there be open holes? I want to decide on tile after the countertops are installed.

There should not be holes but may require dry wall repair?

Ok that makes sense.

Personally I wouldn't go with a yellow splash back. Not because it wouldn't go but more that you already have enough of that accent colour around the room, over do it and it can look forced. There is a fine line between getting the balance right were it looks classy and going over board to the point it looks naff. Personally I would either go for a splash back that is colour matched to the walls or a smoked mirror. You are limited in some ways because it appears there wasn't any forward planning with regards to splash backs. Any splash backs would need to be confined to the width of the extractor because your curved wall units won't open otherwise. They would have to be packed off the wall if you wanted to go full width splash back. I would recommend a durable matt paint in the kitchen. Good quality ones will withstand washing without polishing up and showing tell tell marks where they've been washed. Little Greenes Intelligent Matt is perfect for this and is our choice of paint when not using any further splash backs above the granite upstands. I understand a colour matched glass splash back or smoked mirror may seem like the safe option and boring to some, but there is no point in being brave just for the sake of it. You've got plenty of other points of interest in the room with regards to colour without having to push it too far. Let the kitchen itself be a subtle canvas to show off other items rather than fight with them for attention would be my advice.

Hi, I love the tile splashback posted by Claire, I think it looks stunning and adds different colours and textures, very appealing to the eye... I have seen similar tiles in a showroom and they most certainly look stunning. I have attached the links below of similar tiles if it's any use to you: https://www.al-murad.co.uk/glass-mosaics/1794-trevi-linear-glass-and-stone-mosaics-ancona-blue-23x48.html https://www.al-murad.co.uk/glass-mosaics/2637-jigsaw-lead-mosaic-30-x-30cm.html https://www.al-murad.co.uk/glass-mosaics/2638-jigsaw-mineral-mosaic-30-x-30cm.html I'll keep my eye open if I spot this design anywhere...I know how annoying pintrest is when you find something to complete the look for a room but there is no information on where it is sourced from. All the best

Kitchen wall colours. Add a splash of colour?
Q

So we have decided on Wimborne White on all walls. We plan to add 2 or 3 very large pictures on the radiator wall. If we still feel this is plain we can repaint either this wall or the one with the shelves. Header13 we really like blue and have used it in our south facing bedroom. Carolina I'm afraid to say no. Picking the floor seems to be by far the hardest decision. We really cant decide on light vs (warm) medium grey. We have so many samples and I think it is just making it worse. We feel light should help keep the room bright but could make it all too plain and samey? Darker may give better contrast and more interesting? Lighting in the kitchen is currently really poor (we took the lights down for plastering as they are being replaced) but here is some pictures showing examples of flooring shades we are considering. Most of the colours seem to be falling in these two camps. White oak vs a grey/smoke oak.

I can imagine you must be demoralised because you can’t afford what you were dreaming of but I have got to say I get excited about this kind of house, it’s amazing high ceilings and finding one at an end so the garden is not shaded is brilliant. I think you could have a beautiful space if you put bifold doors between the kitchen and the lean to, raise the floor in the lean to so it’s the same height as the kitchen and have the same flooring for a feeling of continuity. The bifolds satisfy building regs as you don’t need to rebuild the lean to, you have a dining space for all but the coldest days and when it is cold you just close the bifold doors.
