When someone is interested in getting backsplashes for their home, they are often quick to think of the ones made from tiny tiles in a mosaic pattern. Even those these backsplashes are the most common type of designs for these tiles, they are not the only ones. Another type of backsplash that is popular in people’s homes are solid panels. Because they are made from one large tile, they are often created with specialty tiles. Brookridge residents might not be aware of some of the more uncommon materials that are used in tiled backsplashes, when they are only used to seeing glass tiles or ceramic tiles.
Marble Tiles and Panels
One common renovation many homeowners like to see done in their kitchen is they would like to have a backsplash that matches their counter tops. Marble is used and making high quality counter tops, and it can also be used as a specialty material in tiles making them specialty tiles. Brookridge residents should be aware that when it comes to materials that have a great grain like marble or granite, people often get one big tile, or a panel tile made from marble material. Mosaic designs for specialty materials like marble are often not used but it can be achieved if someone wants it.
Glass Panels
When most people are asked to think about specialty tiles, Brookridge residents are quick to think of rare or exotic materials, but another option that is just as rarely seen in backsplashes are full glass panels. Many people use glass in mosaic backsplashes, but not as a solid panel. Glass is a great option for people looking to add backsplashes to their home because glass is relatively cheap for its quality. Glass backsplashes are not only durable, but they are easy to keep clean and looking great. Additionally, if one breaks, it is not at all difficult to get them replaced.
