The kitchen is known as the hub of the home and is without a doubt one of the most used areas of the home on a daily basis, whether it be cooking for the family or entertaining friends. We understand it is important to have an interior look which represents your personal style while being both aesthetically and functionally pleasing.

If you’re anything like us then you will know that no nook or cranny is left untouched when it comes to storage, leaving you with little room for personal touches. Depending on your personal style, kitchens are commonly light and airy or traditionally cosy and covered from top to bottom in kitchen appliances and utensils.

So how do you add a personal touch with minimal space to maximise your interior style whilst still being practical?

The answer is quite simple… Add a Kitchen Splashback!



Throughout history, kitchen splashbacks have taken many different forms from stainless steel and glass, through to ceramic metro tiles within both residential and commercial areas to protect kitchen walls from any unwanted water damage, food stains and more.

Fast forward to the present day, we can see a dramatic shift in tile design from materials to surface decoration as the need for more exciting, innovative and personalised tile trends are desired throughout the home.

Whether it is to protect or to create a feature wall, adding a fun, modern or traditional tile that is hard wearing and easy to clean can transform your kitchen in to an interior hub you can be proud of!

Stepping away from tradition, new splash back tile trends such as wood effect tiles, geometric shapes & textured tiles take centre stage creating a lasting contemporary impression.

We understand personalising your kitchen is important; adding your own stamp onto an area is what makes a house a home, so why not take a look at our most popular kitchen splash back tile suggestions below, guaranteed to take your kitchen from zero to hero…
