Overview

Ask about our backsplash installation

A backsplash is really two decisions: how far up the wall it goes, and whether it comes off the same slab as the counter. A standard splash is a short band sitting on top of the countertop, four inches or so, and its job is to keep the wall clean. A full height splash runs from the counter to the underside of the wall cabinets, usually behind the range, and its job is to be looked at. Cut from the same slab as the countertop, the veining carries straight up across the joint with no grout line to interrupt it, and that is the version most people are picturing when they picture a stone kitchen. We install stunning quartz, marble and granite backsplashes behind your stove that are easy to clean and easy to maintain.

There is a practical argument as well. A slab splash has no grout, so there is nothing behind the range to scrub or reseal, and splatter comes off it the same way it comes off the counter. Outlets and switches are cut into the stone during fabrication rather than worked around afterward, so the openings land clean and square. A full height run also uses more of the slab, so the layout gets planned before anything is cut, and when veining is meant to continue from the counter up the wall we buy for that up front. It is one more reason to look at the real slab at our Pleasantville showroom rather than a chip of it.

Material matters most where you cook. Quartz is non-porous and wipes clean, which is why it is the usual pick directly behind a range. Granite handles splatter in stride with a periodic seal. Marble is the brightest of the three and the most reactive, so a wall of it behind a gas burner rewards a gentler cleaner, and our post on low maintenance stone walks through that trade off. You can run one continuous slab that matches your counter with no grout lines, take it full height to the cabinets for a bold focal point, or lay out a pattern of your own. Whether you are building a new kitchen in Ocean City or updating one in Marlton or Mount Laurel, we help you choose the material and layout that fit.

Materials

Stone for your backsplash

Benefit from a beautiful backsplash

A backsplash might not seem essential, but it comes with real benefits. After installation your kitchen gains a modern, high-end design feature, a new layer of depth and dimension, and a stunning focal point. It also takes the hardest wall in the house out of the cleaning rotation, since a sealed stone face has no grout joints to hold grease. Set up a consultation and see it for yourself.

Good to know

Common questions

What is the difference between a slab backsplash and tile?

A slab backsplash uses a single piece of stone that matches your countertop with no grout lines, for a clean, seamless look that is easy to wipe down. Tile has more visible seams and grout to keep up with. Many homeowners like a slab because it reads as one continuous surface. We can show you both.

What is a full height backsplash?

A full height backsplash runs from the countertop all the way up to the underside of the cabinets, usually behind the range or sink. It makes a bold focal point and protects more of the wall. A standard backsplash is a shorter band above the counter. We build either.

Should the backsplash match my countertops?

That is up to you. We can install one large slab that flows seamlessly from the counter up the wall, or choose a complementary stone or pattern for contrast. Both look great, and we help you decide based on the rest of the kitchen.

What materials work for a backsplash?

We install quartz, marble and granite backsplashes. Each one is easy to clean and maintain, and we can match it to your countertops.

Which stone is easiest to keep clean behind a stove?

Quartz is non-porous and wipes clean easily, which makes it a favorite behind the range. Granite is also very practical with periodic sealing. Marble is beautiful but more porous, so it needs a little more care near cooking. We point you to the best fit for how you cook.

Is stone okay behind the stove with the heat?

Yes. The heat that rises from a cooktop is well within what stone handles, which is part of why stone backsplashes are so popular behind ranges. We finish the edges cleanly so the area is easy to wipe down.

Can you create a custom pattern?

Yes. Through our trusted suppliers we can install one large matching slab or lay out a unique stone pattern, so you get a backsplash that suits your home rather than a stock look.

Do you work on new builds and remodels?

Both. Whether you are building a new kitchen or updating your current one, we can fabricate and install your backsplash. If you have a contractor we fabricate to spec and coordinate with them, and if you do not, we handle the installation through our affiliated licensed contractor.
