7 Benefits of Glass Splashbacks for Your Kitchen
Protecting your kitchen walls from splashes and stains is essential to maintaining cleanliness and hygiene. Using a glass splashback is a great way to make this task easier, as it not only protects your walls but can also add a splash of fun and creativity to your kitchen decor. In this blog, we'll discuss the top 7 benefits of glass splashbacks and why you need one in your kitchen.
1. Glass Splashbacks are Hygienic
Glass is an excellent surface to use in the kitchen.
Not only is it easy to clean and maintain, but unlike tiles or vinyl panels, glass splashbacks are single, flat surfaces, meaning there are no gaps for bacteria to get behind and build up.
A bit of glass cleaner or even soapy water can keep your kitchen walls hygienic and free from bacteria near your food. This makes glass splashbacks an excellent choice for hygiene conscious homeowners.
2. Glass is Heat Resistant
When choosing a splashback for your kitchen, it's crucial to consider its heat resistance. Glass splashbacks can withstand the heat behind your hob, making them perfect for placement behind a cooker compared to something like vinyl tiles, which can warp or peel away from the wall under heat.
3. Glass Splashbacks Allow for Creative Expression
Many people believe that glass splashbacks only come in clear or block colours. However, this is not the case. Glass splashbacks offer a variety of design options, from painted, to printed, allowing you to add a personal touch to your kitchen. Whether you prefer a sleek and modern look or something more colourful and vibrant, a glass splashback can be customised to suit your preferences.
4. Glass Splashbacks are Cost-Effective
Although the initial cost of a glass splashback may be higher than tiles or vinyl panels, glass splashbacks are cheaper in the long run. When you factor in cleaning, repair, and replacement costs, glass splashbacks prove to be much cheaper. Additionally, their longevity means they don't require frequent maintenance, saving you time and money.
Check-out the comparisons between glass splashbacks and other options:
5. Glass Splashbacks are Reflective
Glass splashbacks reflect light much better than the alternatives, creating a brighter, more open feel in your kitchen. This is particularly useful in smaller kitchens or areas that don't receive much natural light. By choosing a glass splashback, you can make your kitchen appear more spacious and welcoming.
6. Glass Splashbacks are Easy to Install
Installing a glass splashback is a straightforward process compared to tiling or installing vinyl panels. Since it's a single panel, it's much easier to handle and install. This means that you won't have to worry about complicated, fiddly, and messy installations.
7. Glass Splashbacks are Durable
Glass splashbacks are known for their durability and longevity. Unlike vinyl panels, which can peel away from the wall after a short period, glass splashbacks are sturdy and reliable. With regular cleaning, they can last for years without any need for maintenance or repairs.
