Why Install a Splashback?
A granite or quartz splashback isn’t just a stylish addition—it’s a practical solution for:
✔ Waterproofing – Shields cabinets from moisture damage
✔ Sealing gaps – Covers uneven walls or countertop edges
✔ Enhancing aesthetics – Adds a seamless, high-end look
Standard Splashback Sizes & Thickness
- Height: 70mm – 200mm (custom sizes available)
- Thickness: 20mm (standard for perfect alignment)
Installation Tips for a Flawless Finish
- For Tiled Walls:
- Install the splashback first, then tile above it so the tiles rest neatly on the splashback edge.
- Ensures a clean, professional transition.
- When Replacing Formica:
- Formica is typically 30mm thick, while quartz is 20mm.
- A splashback helps cover the 10mm gap left exposed after replacement.
