Kitchen Back-splash - Glass tiles FALLING OFF
Comments (3)Here is a link to google, how that backsplash should have been installed. There are some u tube videos too. I watched one video, where they used grout, between the countertop and the backsplash, and grout should not be used there. Caulking shud be done between backsplash and countertop. My backsplash is also caulked in all the corners, rather than grouted. Once you watch these videos and read these articles, you will see that your thinset was put on improperly, and thats why your tiles are falling off. Please read carefully. https://www.google.com/search?source=hp&ei=uI4VW7HdLszKjwTtrqSoAw&q=how+to+install+glass+subway+tile+backsplash&oq=How+to+install+glass+subway+tile+&gs_l=psy-ab.1.0.0l3j0i22i30k1l3.3755.12143.0.14244.41.29.3.9.9.0.173.3348.9j20.29.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..0.41.3556...0i131k1j33i22i29i30k1.0.70wb9L5GlO8...See MoreWhat to do with Kitchen Backsplash (back wall of my kitchen)
Comments (5)What about just having the Calcutta as the backsplash? Just run it to the bottom of the hood. No other stone or anything else needed....See MoreWhere to start and stop kitchen “back-splash” tile?
Comments (4)Thanks all. I ended up tiling around the window, but stopping underneath the top shelf and at the same level on the other side so that it was symmetrical and framed the window. I felt tiling above the cabinets would have been too much and I even changed the design from herringbone to this stacked soldier pattern last minute because I thought it might have been too busy with my Taj Mahal countertops, which should be the star. The tile is from Emil Group and is called Totallook Blanco Matte and Blanco Lux. Just google and I'm sure you can find a store near you. I chose to do 75% matte and 25% glossy for a bit of pop, but not too much. Way too many decisions every day!!!...See MoreNeed help with kitchen backsplash!
Comments (2)I do think something sleek would look great with your cabinets. Here is a post showing TM slab backsplash (after a lot of other things that would not fit with your vision) https://www.houzz.com/discussions/6338278/backsplash-suggestions-for-taj-mahal-quartzite Several more kitchens with TM slab backsplash https://www.houzz.com/discussions/6149982/will-this-taj-mahal-slab-also-look-good-for-the-backsplash Personally I think it is lovely and would bring some movement and organic feel to the kitchen....See Moresunshine_31
