Kitchen Backsplash Tile

A beautiful backsplash is an integral part of your kitchen’s decor. It can be a simple, clean tile that protects susceptible areas while it lets your cabinets, counters or fixtures stand out. Or you can choose to make the backsplash the focal point of the kitchen with an attention-getting accent tile.

Choosing the Right Material for Your Kitchen Backsplash

When selecting the right tile material for your backsplash, you want to consider the ease of cleaning as well as the look you hope to achieve. We have a variety of tile materials that will work as a backsplash, each with their own benefits. 

 

Backsplash Tile for Kitchen Form and Function

Make a statement and protect against mess with a backsplash that displays your style. From bold to simple, modern to classic, patterned to monochromatic, the kitchen backsplash is where form meets function. Easy-to-clean tile not only protects your walls, but it can create an eye-catching look to enliven your cooking area. 

Porcelain and Ceramic: Durable, Yet Stylish

When it comes to durability and versatility, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles can’t be beat! They can withstand the mess and heat of cooking and come in a vast array of styles. Marble-look tiles create a luxurious look with vivid veining. Patterned tiles can be used to create a decorative stove backsplash accent. Hexagon tiles arrange for a subtly intricate design. Whatever the style, porcelain and ceramic tiles will look fabulous as they protect your walls.
