Kitchen Backsplash Installation in Charleston, SC

See our featured Kitchen Countertop and Backsplash Project.

A new backsplash changes the look of your kitchen remodel and protects the wall behind the countertop and stove. We install tile and stone slab, so here is each type of tile and stone to consider.

• Stone Slab. A smooth, whole piece with a clean, modern look, cut in our own workshop.
• Natural Stone Tile. Granite, marble and other stones for a classic or rustic look.
• Ceramic Tile. Many colors, shapes and patterns at a friendly price.
• Glass Tile. A glossy finish that reflects light.

Each type sets a different tone for your kitchen, so pick the one that fits your remodel, your cabinets and your budget. Want to keep the same stone? We can plan a matching backsplash for your kitchen countertops.

Thinking about a stone slab backsplash? Here are its pros and cons.

Pros

• A smooth surface. A single slab means few or no grout lines to scrub.
• A clean, modern look. It can run behind the stove or all the way up to the ceiling.
• A matching option. We can cut it to coordinate with your countertop stone.
• Many stones. Marble, granite, quartzite and quartz come in a wide range of colors and veining.
• Easy to wipe. Mild soap and warm water handle most spills.

Cons

• Price. It sits at the upper end, and the cost depends on the slab.
• Weight. It is heavy, so the wall and the installation need careful planning.
• Not a DIY job. It needs precise cuts and experienced installers.
• Sealing. Natural stone may need sealing, and the schedule depends on the stone and the sealer.

A slab suits you if you want a seamless look and accept the budget. See our stone countertops to match the stone.

Considering natural stone tile? Here are its pros and cons.

Pros

• Many stones. Granite, marble, travertine and slate each bring their own colors and patterns.
• Natural character. Every tile varies, so no two walls look alike.
• Flexible layouts. It comes in many sizes and fits patterns like herringbone.

Cons

• Sealing. Porous stones like marble and travertine need sealing, and the schedule depends on the stone and the sealer.
• Softer stones. Marble and soapstone can scratch, so they need careful use.
• Grout lines. They collect dirt, so maintain your backsplash with regular cleaning.
• Hard to match. A damaged tile is hard to replace with the same natural variation.

Natural stone tile suits you if you like a one-of-a-kind look and accept the upkeep. Our professional tile installers handle tile installation for a kitchen or bathroom.

Looking at ceramic tile? Here are its pros and cons.

Pros

• Many choices. Colors, shapes and sizes give you plenty of ways to make the kitchen your own.
• Budget friendly. It often costs less per square foot than stone, depending on the type of tile.
• Easy upkeep. Wipe off spills and splashes with a damp cloth.

Cons

• Price range. Handmade and designer tile costs much more than basic tile.
• Cracks and chips. It can crack under impact, so keep a few spare pieces of new tile.
• Grout. It can stain, so ask us about grout color and care.

Ceramic suits you when you want color and pattern without a stone budget. We install it with the same craftsmanship as stone.

Is a glass tile backsplash right for your kitchen? Here are its pros and cons.

Pros

• A bright finish. It reflects light and can make a kitchen feel brighter.
• Easy to clean. A quick wipe removes most smudges and spills.
• Many looks. Glossy, iridescent and mosaic styles are available.

Cons

• Delicate. A cracked tile needs replacing, and finding the same tile later can be hard.
• A well-prepared wall. It shows uneven surfaces, so the wall needs careful preparation.
• Price. It varies a lot by tile and pattern.

• Glass tile adds shine to a kitchen or bathroom remodel when you want a light, modern look.
