Types of Kitchen Backsplashes
We focus on materials and designs that balance durability, aesthetics, and ease of maintenance. Each backsplash type offers unique benefits, depending on your kitchen’s style and functional needs.
Mosaic and Decorative Patterns
Mosaic tile backsplashes use small pieces of tile arranged into specific patterns or images. This style allows for creative designs that can serve as focal points in your kitchen.
Patterns range from classic geometric shapes to custom artwork. We emphasize selecting mosaic tiles with durable grout that resists stains and moisture.
Decorative mosaics create texture and color variation, enhancing the backsplash’s visual interest without compromising on ease of cleaning.
Glass, Ceramic, and Porcelain
Glass tiles provide a sleek, reflective surface that brightens a kitchen space. Their impervious nature means they resist moisture and stains, making cleaning straightforward.
Ceramic tiles are a popular choice due to their affordability and variety of colors. They have a smooth finish but require sealed grout to prevent water damage.
Porcelain tiles offer increased hardness and durability compared to ceramic. They are denser and less porous, which makes them a reliable option for backsplashes exposed to heat and splashes.
Water-Resistant Materials
We prioritize backsplashes that stand up to water and cooking splatters. Impervious materials such as glass, porcelain, and sealed natural stone prevent water absorption.
These materials reduce the risk of mold and grime buildup behind the backsplash. Proper installation and sealing are critical to maintaining water resistance long term.
Other impervious options include stainless steel and metal sheets, which offer a modern aesthetic and easy cleaning ability. These surfaces do not require grout, eliminating some maintenance concerns.
Coordinating with Cabinets
Matching backsplashes with cabinets and countertops achieves a cohesive kitchen design. We consider color, texture, and material compatibility to create a balanced look.
For example, neutral-colored backsplashes complement wooden cabinets and granite countertops without overwhelming the space. Contrasting dark or patterned tiles can highlight lighter cabinetry.
Surface texture coordination is essential. Glossy tiles pair well with matte cabinets, adding depth, while textured tile can soften sleek countertop finishes.
Warranty and Customer Support
We prioritize the durability of every kitchen backsplash we install and back our work with reliable service and accessible support channels. Our commitment includes clear warranty terms and a dedicated team ready to assist with any concerns or questions.
Quality Assurance and Warranty
We provide a comprehensive warranty that covers both materials and installation workmanship. Our standard warranty period ranges from one to five years, depending on the specific tile products used and the project scope. This ensures peace of mind against defects or installation issues.
If any problem arises within the warranty window, we promptly assess and address it at no additional cost. We follow industry standards to guarantee your backsplash remains secure and aesthetically consistent over time.

How much does kitchen backsplash installation cost in Tallahassee?
Kitchen backsplash installation in Tallahassee typically ranges from $18-35 per square foot, depending on material selection and complexity. For an average kitchen (30-40 sq ft of backsplash area), expect to pay between $540-1,400 for professional installation. Custom designs, intricate patterns, or premium materials may increase costs.
What are the best backsplash materials for Florida kitchens?
Porcelain and ceramic tiles are ideal for Florida kitchens due to their moisture resistance, durability, and easy maintenance. Glass tiles offer vibrant colors that complement Florida's aesthetic while being humidity-resistant. Quartz and natural stone provide elegant options, though sealed natural stone requires periodic maintenance. Porcelain wood-look tiles give a warm look with superior moisture resistance compared to actual wood.
Can you install backsplash over existing tile in Tallahassee homes?
Yes, we can install backsplash over existing tile in many situations, saving demolition time and costs. We evaluate the existing surface for stability, flatness, and cleanliness before proceeding. This approach works best when the old tile is in good condition and doesn't create excessive thickness. We use specialized bonding primers to ensure proper adhesion to the existing tile surface.
Can you match my existing kitchen countertops with appropriate backsplash in Tallahassee?
Absolutely. We offer free in-home consultations where our design specialists analyze your existing countertops, cabinetry, and overall kitchen aesthetic to recommend complementary backsplash options. We can bring material samples to view in your actual kitchen lighting and provide digital mockups for complex designs. Our extensive supplier network ensures we can source materials that coordinate perfectly with your countertops.
Do you offer waterproof backsplash options for Florida's humid climate?
Yes, we specialize in humidity-resistant backsplash solutions for Florida homes. Our porcelain and ceramic options provide excellent moisture protection, while our proper installation techniques include waterproof membranes and specialized grout sealers. For maximum moisture protection, we recommend our epoxy grout option, which creates a virtually waterproof surface that withstands Florida's humidity while resisting stains and mildew.
