Backsplashes give homeowners the ability to infuse their kitchens with their own unique personal style. Backsplashes are one of the most exciting purchase options homeowners make when building a new home or remodeling their current home.

Some people prefer simple, clean designs using monochromatic colors such as white when installing their backsplashes. Others prefer to select Green materials, often opting for 100% recycled materials which create little to no environmental impact.

Backsplashes can be installed by the homeowner themselves, although most design specialists recommend professional installation to ensure that the design is captured exactly right within their kitchens or bathrooms.
