WHITE TILE BACKSPLASH – TIPS FOR CREATING A CLEAN BACKSPLASH DESIGN

It seems that the goal of many home owners who undertake a backsplash upgrade project is to find the perfect colors to create a visually stunning backsplash. But what about those who believe simple is stunning? If you are one of those people who would rather have a kitchen or bathroom that has a very clean and simple look, then choosing to use white tile backsplash materials is the way to accomplish this goal.

When you look at your friend’s homes and the backsplashes they have installed over the years; which ones truly stand out above the rest? Funny enough, some of the most popular and yet simple looking backsplash designs are the most functional and elegant at the same time. And quite often, these people use white backsplash glass tiles.

If you are looking to use white tiles to create a truly elegant backsplash, here are a few things you should consider before undertaking the project.

Start with a Solid Plan 


One of the biggest mistakes that people tend to make when creating a white backsplash is they overlook other important features of the room. For example, if you are creating a kitchen backsplash and you have black appliances and cabinets, creating a white backsplash would truly stand out among the dark crowd of other kitchen materials. If this is your goal, then there are no worries. But, make sure you start out with a plan of attack. Before you buy, consider the following questions;

  • How much is my total kitchen backsplash upgrade budget?
  • What other improvements will need to be made if I choose to install white tiles?
  • How often will I have to clean white tiles and am I willing to put forth this effort?
  • What other materials will I need to install the kitchen backsplash correctly?

Believe it or not – not all tiles are made equally. Different types of materials have different levels of quality and strength. For the most part, glass tiles are very sturdy and strong, however perhaps you should consider having a stone/glass combo white tile backsplash used in your kitchen? This would increase the strength of the tile and potentially reduce the chances of them breaking. However, the most important thing that you should consider is never compromise quality of tile for price. Although many people have strict budgets to adhere to for any home improvement project, buying cheaply made tile should never enter your mind.
