Benefits Of Glass Splashbacks

Aesthetics

Glass splashbacks offer a sophisticated aesthetic that will give your kitchen a polished look and make it look bigger and brighter.

Hygiene

Some splashbacks give germs and bacteria endless places to hide, but not glass splashbacks! They’ve earnt themselves the reputation as one of the most hygienic options as they’re non-porous, don’t include any small crevices, and are resistant to stains, mould, and mildew.

Easy to Clean

The lack of hiding places for germs means that not only are glass splashbacks hygienic, but they’re easy to clean as well. All glass splashbacks need is a quick clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent or a glass cleaner, and you’re good to go!

Durability

Provided your glass splashbacks are made with high-quality materials and have been installed correctly, glass splashbacks are one of the most durable options available.

Safety

Glass is a fragile material, which means it can crack or break if subjected to extreme impacts. To keep your glass splashback safe, avoid using harsh or abrasive cleaning materials that could damage the surface

Customisable Design

At Totally Frameless, we understand that splashbacks are as unique as your kitchen, bathroom, or other areas of your home. We offer customisable designs to make your glass splashback suit your space.

FAQs

What is the best splashback for a kitchen?

Splashbacks for kitchens should be as functional as they are stylish. Thankfully, there are many materials and colours you can choose from to make your splashback suit your kitchen in every way possible.

Tile, stainless steel, glass, and mirrored splashbacks are all popular options that are easy to clean and look great. Mirrored splashbacks offer the added benefit of reflecting light so that your kitchen looks even brighter and more spacious! Whichever option you choose, make sure that it’s properly sealed so that it can withstand any splashes or spills from cooking.

Is it cheaper to tile or splashback?

The cost of redoing a splashback will vary depending on many factors, including the size of your kitchen, the complexity of the project, and, if you select tile, the type of tile you choose. As such, there’s no clear-cut answer as to what is the cheapest option. Generally, however, tiling can be much cheaper as it’s a simpler installation process and requires less material.

What is the latest trend for splashbacks?

Geometric shapes are currently a popular choice for splashbacks, whether they’re in tile or glass panel form. Other trends at the moment include using bold colours, metallics, and incorporating lighting. All of these options help to add personality to a space, making the splashback a talking point for visitors!

Are glass splashbacks hard to keep clean?

Glass splashbacks are one of the easiest types of splashbacks to keep clean. This is because they’re non-porous and don’t have any grout lines where dirt and grime can hide. Plus, their smooth surface is resistant to stains and easy to wipe clean using just a soft cloth and mild detergent.

How do I maintain my glass splashbacks?

Maintaining glass splashbacks is simple and requires minimal effort. Ensuring you clean them regularly with a soft cloth and mild detergent or glass cleaner will help them to look clean and new at all times. Make sure you remove any stains as soon as possible to prevent them from setting in, and always dry them thoroughly with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and streaks. Cleaning as you go is quick and easy and will help to keep your glass splashbacks working well and looking good for years to come.

Are glass splashbacks expensive?

The overall cost of glass splashbacks varies depending on a number of factors, including the size of the space and the thickness, colour, and design of the glass. Generally, they are more of an investment than other options, but the trade-off is durability, easy maintenance, and the sleek, modern look glass splashbacks provide.

Can glass splashbacks crack from heat?

While glass splashbacks are generally heat resistant, they can only resist so much. Glass splashbacks can break if subjected to extreme stress, which includes thermal shock (when they’re exposed to a sudden and extreme temperature change). To prevent thermal shock, avoid placing very hot objects, such as pans directly from the oven onto the glass surface. Allow the glass to warm up gradually instead.

At Totally Frameless, we use 6mm toughened glass splashbacks and mirrors made to measure. Toughened glass is designed to be more resistant to thermal shock than other types of glass, meaning it is less likely to break or shatter.

Can I put a glass splashback over tiles?

It is possible to install a glass splashback over tiles— this is called an overlay installation. If you’re looking to save costs, an overlay installation is a good option, as you don’t need to remove the old tiles and install a new splashback from scratch.

However, the tiles must be in good condition, securely attached to the wall, and thoroughly cleaned and dried before installation. Additionally, the glass overlay needs to be cut precisely and installed using a suitable adhesive or mounting system that has been specifically designed. Due to its requirements, an overlay installation may not be suitable for every situation. If you’re unsure whether an overlay installation could work for you, contact us at Totally Frameless today so we can assess your specific needs.

What is the difference between mirror and glass splashback?

The main difference between a mirror and a glass splashback is the surface finish. While mirrored splashbacks are reflective, glass splashbacks are opaque or translucent, offering a very different aesthetic.

Both mirror and glass splashbacks are made from toughened glass. However, mirrored splashbacks are then treated with a mirrored coating, and glass splashbacks tend to be given a clear, tinted, coloured, frosted, or patterned finish. When it comes to choosing between a mirror or glass splashback, it all depends on your personal style, practical considerations, and the look and feel you want to achieve in the space.
