Is a Backsplash Necessary?

When redesigning your kitchen or bathroom, a backsplash is the final touch to take your project from blah to wow! A backsplash is not necessary. However, a kitchen or bathroom backsplash will not only increase the beauty and value of your project, but it will also protect your walls.

Should you put a backsplash in your remodel? There are a few things to consider when deciding if a backsplash should be a part of your project.

What is the purpose of a Backsplash?

A backsplash is an extension of your countertop. It can extend as low as a few inches off the wall or as high as the ceiling. The purpose of a backsplash is to prevent water, grease, and other mess from damaging your walls, particularly behind stoves, tubs and sinks. 

Backsplashes offer unique colors and design patterns to customize to your style.

While backsplashes may be a vital part of your project, your budget will dictate whether you want to approach it as a luxury or a necessity depending on the tile you choose.

 It is up to you to decide what is best for your family’s lifestyle needs, but our design team at Elite Remodeling can help you and guide you in your choice.

Does A Backsplash Make Financial Sense?

A properly designed backsplash can take a kitchen or bathroom design to a whole new level. An upscale look can result in value added to your home and it doesn’t need to break the bank. However, choosing a poorly designed backsplash can hurt your final results. 

When choosing a backsplash, make sure your designer is proficient in helping you select something that complements and enhances the rest of your design. 

Kitchen Backsplash Ideas

There are many available backsplash materials from which to choose for your tiled backsplash, including: ceramic, porcelain, glass, stone and more.

Your designer at Elite Remodeling and Design in Holly Springs, NC can help you pick the perfect backsplash based on your style and budget without sacrificing the final result. 

What Can I Use Instead Of A Backsplash?

If beautiful backsplashes aren’t your thing.  There are other ways to protect your kitchen walls from getting damaged. Here are other alternatives for your new kitchen:

No Kitchen Backsplash, Just Paint

There are paints designed specifically to resist moisture and bacteria. Semi & high gloss painted walls are easier to clean than your typical satin finish.

Wallpaper

Wallpapers offer many style options for any project. They can give your design a custom look at a fraction of the cost of tile, making it an appealing backsplash alternative.

Some wallpaper is manufactured to withstand typical backsplash use, but the paper will eventually bubble, peel or tear. If budget is a concern, wallpaper makes a great alternative for any homeowner who can’t afford a conventional tile backsplash. Just keep in mind that this is not a long term solution, in many cases.

Shiplap

Shiplap can add some texture and visual interest to your kitchen without becoming a distraction. Shiplap can be painted with a moisture-resistant paint & sealed with caulk for maximum wall protection.

Partial Backsplash

If you don’t want anything too eye-catching, but still want to protect your walls, a partial backsplash may be a good choice. A 4- to 6-inch-high backsplash is enough to protect the lower part of your drywall. If you don’t want to draw any attention to your backsplash, you can use the countertop material as a backsplash.
