Kitchen splashbacks are an important aspect to the practicality of a kitchen

Kitchen visual features such as kitchen splashbacks are practical and integral elements of any kitchen workspace. As they dominate the backdrop to your kitchen cooker and hob area, it is also an opportunity to select a style that harmoniously works to blend with the overall ambience and kitchen theme.

You might ask '“are kitchen splashbacks necessary”?

When visiting our experienced kitchen team to discuss your kitchen design and installation, we can also offer guidance and advice on the extensive range of kitchen splashback ideas. Splashbacks, kitchen upstands and even kitchen tiling are incredibly useful for protecting your walls that are susceptible to water splashes from bubbling pans, spitting oil and other cooking spillages that commonly occur on kitchen hobs. Most custom kitchens will have a splashback, usually behind the cooker and hob.

The materials used in manufacturing the splashbacks are all designed with practicality at the forefront. They are easily accessible, stylish, and attractive and offer invaluable protection to your kitchen walls and cabinets. 

Why are splashbacks used in the kitchen?

All kitchen fitters will agree; splashbacks are an imperative component of any modern kitchen, no matter the style, size or colour - they play an integral role in the kitchens' function. Having a protective backdrop; from the worktop up to the cabinets will ensure your wall and interior is free from cooking fats, water, and steam. Splashbacks also add colour, style and character to any kitchen design. They function as a feature wall, created to complement your kitchen, its furnishings and colour pallets.

You can discuss the best viable solutions with our dedicated kitchen planners when you visit our new kitchen showroom. They can talk and guide you through what may work best for your preferred style, and most importantly, your budget.

What type of kitchen splashbacks can you consider in your new design? 

When planning your kitchen design and build, there is a wide choice of kitchen splashbacks styles to explore, all of which are easy to clean, install and maintain. Quartz is a superior material for a splashback. It provides the highest level of heat, stain, and impact resistance, and from an aesthetic point of view, it looks exceptional. Ceramic splashbacks tiles and even glass are popular choices. They offer a natural but premium finish, and like the quartz option, their performance in heat and stain protection is unrivalled. They are also easy to clean and offer affordable options within the range. 

Consider the function needed for your new kitchen splashback.

The key focus for any kitchen splashback is to protect your kitchen walls from continuous and unwanted stains, splashes, and excessive heat. It also must look the part and blend in within the style, theme and colourway of your kitchen decor. Splashbacks do not have to be permanent features; you can interchange them when desired. It is an effective way of replenishing a kitchen with a makeover without changing the actual kitchen itself.
