Tile, stone, slab, glass, metal and a matching splash compared for look, cleaning and installation.
A backsplash protects the wall and sets the mood of the kitchen. Ceramic and porcelain tile are practical and come in endless colors and shapes. Glass tile catches light. Natural stone tile adds depth. A slab backsplash is one large piece with few joints. A matching four-inch splash is the simplest. Metal and mosaic backsplashes make bold statements. Each differs in cleaning, installation and cost.
The best choice depends on your countertop, your cabinets and how much you cook. Busy cooks may like slab or tile with epoxy grout because it cleans easily. A decorative range wall may deserve a feature tile. We usually install the backsplash after the countertop and plan the two together. In Nashville, white subway tile, handmade-look green tile and full-height slab are all popular. We bring samples and help you picture the finished wall.
