Need help with counter-top and backsplash selection
Comments (1)I think white would be a nice contrast. I've attached a link to a GW member's (kellienoelle) kitchen that used Delicatus granite & a classic white backsplash.

Comments (6)"Which should I use on the corian/tile backsplash junction: silicone or water-based caulk? " If the area is silicone contaminated you likely have little choice but to use silicone, but even then you need to get the area as clean as possible. Naphtha seems to work better than other solvents. If you get the silicone level low enough new silicone caulk should work fine. Its chief drawbacks are being a PITA to apply and clean up, a limited number of colors, and it is not paintable (not an issue in this application). I have noticed a lot of poorly done tile joints lately. Wall tiles sitting tight on counters leaving no real space for caulk. Bathrooms seem to be even worse. Wall tiles so tight against the floor of the shower you can only make a large cove of caulk instead of a narrower joint that is less prone to damage from cleaning (leading to the inevitable leaks)....See MoreBacksplash tile to counter or is counter trim piece needed?
Comments (4)Found the right search: "tile backsplash granite counter" and sure enough many people have asked. Here's one: http://ths.gardenweb.com/discussions/2696049/3-granite-backsplash-needed-if-plan-to-tile-backsplash-kitchen?n=5 Takeaway is that it is definitely not necessary and the majority of people don't like it with the extra granite piece. Someone observed that this probably ends up this way most often when the tile was added later over the original granite backsplash....See MoreWall cabinet distance from counter to avoid cutting backsplash tiles?
Comments (27)I have posted a picture that shows the layout, and sorry I didn't think of that earlier. The picture shows why I asked the question. I have 9' ceilings, with nothing at the top to align anything with. The kitchen is a U and the stove is centered on the "bottom" of the U. The wall cabinets do not go over to the hood on the back wall. I am not sure yet how high the tiles will go by the stove, but I want them to line up all the way around. So if I can adjust the height by an inch or so, I am good with that! Thanks to everyone who graciously took of their valuable time to give me such good suggestions....See MoreRelated Professionals
