A backsplash is the fastest kitchen upgrade
Cabinets and countertops are expensive to replace. A backsplash is not, and it changes the look of the kitchen more than almost anything else for the money. Most installations take one to two days and you can cook in the kitchen the whole time.
We install backsplashes across Palm Beach County in every common style:
- Subway tile in ceramic, porcelain or glass, stacked or offset
- Glass and glass mosaic for a reflective, modern look
- Stacked stone and stone mosaic for texture behind a range or bar
- Talavera and hand-painted tile for color and a Spanish or Mexican feel
- Large-format tile and slab-look porcelain for a seamless surface
What makes a backsplash look professional
The difference between a good backsplash and a great one is layout. Before any tile goes on, we plan where the pattern starts so it is centered on the range and hood, cuts at the corners are even, and outlet cutouts are tight. The joint where tile meets the counter is caulked rather than grouted so it does not crack when the counter moves.
Countertop cleaning and restoration
Marble and granite countertops take daily abuse. Marble etches from anything acidic, which leaves dull rings and spots in the polish. Granite collects oil around the cooktop and goes dark near the sink when the sealer wears off.
| Problem | Stone | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Dull rings and spots | Marble | Honing to remove the etch, then repolish and seal |
| Dark, oily areas | Granite, marble | Deep clean, poultice stains, reseal |
| Overall dullness | Either | Polish and seal |
| Chips at the edge | Either | Fill and blend |
Countertop restoration usually takes a few hours and the counter is usable the same day. We do not fabricate or replace countertops; we make the stone you have look new.
Bathrooms too
The same work applies to bathroom vanities, tub decks and vanity backsplashes. If you are updating a bathroom, see our bathroom and shower tile page for the full room.
