Choosing a kitchen backsplash for your new custom kitchen remodel is an important decision to bring the cabinets and countertops together.
The kitchen backsplash is the area of the kitchen wall between the wall cabinets and the countertops that protects the walls from staining.
Appropriate places for a kitchen backsplash include behind the sink, stove, and food preparation area. Having a kitchen backsplash that is easy to clean is far better then a bare wall or wallpaper.
