Slab and Specialty Backsplashes

Full-height stone slabs, metal, glass, handmade tile and patterned designs that make the wall behind the range a focal point.

Some backsplashes are meant to be noticed. A full-height slab of stone or quartz that runs from counter to ceiling creates a dramatic, seamless wall with almost no grout lines. A hammered copper or stainless panel behind the range adds texture and shine. A pattern of encaustic cement tile or a hand-painted mural makes the kitchen feel like a destination. In Nashville homes with open living spaces, a statement backsplash can anchor the room.

We help you evaluate the idea, the cost and the practicalities. Slabs need careful templating, particularly around outlets, windows and hoods, and the wall must be flat and structurally sound. Specialty tile may need sealing or unusual setting methods. We coordinate fabrication, lighting and ventilation so the feature looks as good at night as it does in daylight. Where a bold choice might be hard to live with, we suggest ways to get the same impact with a smaller feature area behind the range.
