Countertop Backsplashes

counter top back splashesBacksplashes protect the wall along the countertop from food residue and water and often are made from the same materials as the countertop itself. Four inches is common, but they may be any height.

Plastic laminate and solid-surface countertops often have backsplashes included, creating a seamless look. Natural materials such as wood, stone, and ceramic tile have separate backsplashes. Often, the countertop’s edging is used in the backsplash to create a uniform appearance.
