In order to protect a kitchen from liquid or food splashes on wall surfaces behind sinks, cookers and work surfaces, splashbacks have enormous necessity. A splashback is generally made from glass or stainless steel and they tend to be used on surfaces that would have traditionally been tiled.
Splashbacks are often both ornamental and functional while they are also available in a range of finishes, colours and designs. In some places of the country, these splashbacks are usually referred to as backsplashes.
With installing a beautiful contemporary glass cooker splashback, you can transform the look of your kitchen. Glass cooker splashbacks are a modern stylish alternative to tiles and grout.
Splashbacks will typically be a standard off-the-shelf size or can be custom made to fit your exact requirements. If you need to cover an area which is an unusual size or if you require holes cut into the splashback for electrical sockets or similar, you should go for a splashback custom made for you.
When you are planning a new kitchen or looking to upgrade your current kitchen, it is worth considering splashbacks due to their beauty and practicality. Splashbacks are a very sensible choice, because they are the products by installing which you can maintain hygienic environment of a kitchen. Splashbacks are tough, durable, heat-resistant and easy to clean.
The wall behind a sink or cooker hob tends to be spread with spits and splashes. This area is especially worth considering for a splashback, although many people select to have a uniform customized look throughout their kitchen.
Water can particularly damage the structure of your house. Splashing water is inevitable in kitchens and bathrooms. The grout in tiles tend to wear out and allow water to penetrate into the wall. Serious damage may be caused due to water seepage, especially to wooden structure of your house. Finally, leaking water and water seepage can cause rot that can be very expensive to put right. That water leakage and seepage can also encourage the growth of mould and spores that have been shown to have a detrimental effect on the health of household occupants.
Splashback are extremely resistant to staining, with traditional tiles the surface can be wiped clean. But, the grout between tiles will often stain and war over time. The grout can be discoloured by colourful foods to an extent that it isn’t possible to bring back that as-new look without messy re-grouting of tiles. A large wipe-clean surface has to be on a glass cooker splashback and that surface can be restored to a pristine finish with very limited effort required.
