Home owners may not have any greater joy than renovating and redesigning their home. The kitchen is usually the first room in the house that goes under the microscope and is changed to suit the owners’ likes and desires. After all, the kitchen is typically the busiest and most social room of the entire house!

The kitchen backsplash is placed on the kitchen wall between the countertops and the wall cabinets. It protects the walls and especially the zones behind the range, the sink, and the places where you prepare the food, from staining. Your backsplash will stain, but the materials appropriate for it are usually easy to clean and maintain and are a far better option than just a bare painted wall or wallpaper.
