In this blog, I share with you all you need to know about installing custom splashbacks in your home.

Accuracy Should Never Be Compromised

One of the most important things to know when ordering your next custom glass splashback is that; accuracy is everything. With these glass products, if a measurement is wrong, the glass is simply condemned and unusable, and the glazing process will need to start all over.

This is why it is a must to use a reputable glass company when ordering your next custom glass splashback. When you use a reputable professional, you realise that they take all of the important things into consideration.

Things like edge tolerance, cutouts, and even joins in the glass, all these factors will be put into consideration to ensure that everything lines up with your cabinetry correctly. This extra attention also assures that the aesthetic integrity of the likes of your kitchen or bathroom is kept intact during the installation process.

Be Adequately Guided on Glass Patterns, Colours, Maximum Length, and Other Effects

It is also important to note that any glass and glazing professional should be able to give you the most sound, well-informed advice on glass colours, patterns, or the different effects that you should consider for your space.

A common question that we get asked regarding custom glass splashbacks is; the maximum length that we can go. A large number of our customers want a splashback that is free of glass joins, and rightfully so. The maximum length that we can go in one panel is 3.6 meters.

If your kitchen exceeds that 3.6 metres, that means the glass splashback will need to have joins, and you can rest easy on this, as our expertise and experience come into play here. Simply give us a call, and we would be on our way to you, and then we would find the most minimalist point to put those joins and make them dissolve into your cabinetry.

Most of the cutouts and notches in everyday splashbacks are not too much of a problem that our company can’t replicate. Although there are limitations and restrictions, there are usually workarounds for a lot of these.

Things like general power outlets or power points are easily able to be produced into the glass. Also, things like notches around cabinets are also very achievable. We do have some limitations regarding the minimum radius in the glass. It is impossible for us to cut glass at a right angle, so, in the internal corner. We need to place a small radius to ensure that the glass holds. Its strength does not randomly explode over time.

Cleaning Your Custom Glass Splashback

Cleaning your new custom glass splashback is really easy. You just need to treat it like any standard piece of glass. And clean it often with your usual household glass cleaner.

Since severe impact or high heat can break untreated glass into dangerous, jagged shards, glass splashbacks for kitchens are made from toughened glass.

Also known as “tempering,” toughening is the term for a process of intense glass heating and rapid cooling. At the end of this process, the centre of the glass remains in tension while the outer surfaces go into compression.

As a result, toughened glass is four to five times stronger and safer than untreated glass. Even if it becomes stressed to the point of breakage, it shatters into thousands of small, harmless pieces.

While safety is a major benefit, the toughening process creates a challenge for designers and builders looking to install glass splashbacks in kitchens: the glass must be cut BEFORE it gets toughened.

There is no modifying, shortening or re-purposing toughened glass. What you order is what you get and replacement orders can cause havoc to the budget and building schedule in Melbourne homes.

This puts a premium on preparation.

To achieve the clean, modern kitchen splashback look with glass, you’ll need definitive design and installation choices.

In this article, we’ll analyse the most important of these choices, so you’ll have a crystal-clear view of what’s needed for a successful kitchen glass splashback installation.

1.  Decide on the Right Splashback Choice

When deciding the best splashbacks for kitchens, consider the home’s overall style.

Bespoke glass splashbacks for kitchens accent contemporary or modern-style homes for the following reasons:

• They reflect light to create bright, airy space;
• They are clean and seamless; and
• They invite an open floor plan into “closed areas” to make small spaces feel bigger.

They are also surprisingly versatile and can add style to country houses and traditional-style homes as well.

So, the choice comes down to details such as:

• How will the splashback work with the bench top material?
• Do you want a clean, streamlined splashback or something more traditional?
• The amount of maintenance: glass is much easier to clean compared to tile grout.
• Cost: Tile is generally more economical, but it is more likely to break or crack over time.

A kitchen with a glass splashback is a great choice.

It’s a low-maintenance option that works with almost any benchtop material to create a bright, eye-catching design feature.

2.  Finalise the Kitchen Plan

Glass splashbacks for kitchens should be measured and fabricated after the entire kitchen plan is finalised.

This includes the placements for the following kitchen components:

• Cabinetry;
• Oven hob;
• Vent hood;
• Above counter sockets;
• Above counter switches; and
• LED and other backlighting.

These components need to be finalised because the glass cannot be altered once it’s ordered.

So, if you order the glass and then decide to move a wall socket 20 centimetres to the right, the access point will not line up properly with the socket.

You should also decide how much space the kitchen splashback will cover before ordering the glass.

Some of the best kitchen splashbacks cover all the space between the countertops and the cabinetry.

In the image below, for instance, the glass covers the area behind the hob, the countertop areas, and the open wall sections above the vent hood.

Yet there are many other options. In the image below, for example, the splashback acts as an accent as it rises only a few centimetres above the counter. Lastly, the space between the oven hob and the glass splashback needs careful consideration.

The Australia/New Zealand Standard 2208:1996 specifies safety glazing material requirements in buildings. It includes the necessary distance between the splashback and the oven hob as well as the requirement for toughened glass.

Homebuilding Tip: Splashbacks for hot water (e.g. behind the sink) or appliance areas (e.g. behind the oven hob) need to be accompanied by a letter from an architect, designer, glass supplier or glass manufacturer that says the splashback is fit for its designed purpose.

3.  Consider the Glass Splashback Finish and Texture

What finish will look best in the kitchen?

There are 3 main choices:

• Matted: The glass has an extremely low reflective quality.
• Glossy: The glass has an extremely high reflective quality.
• Frosted: The glass blurs images while still transmitting light.

Obviously, this design choice should be analysed closely before the order is put in. In addition, there are several textures to consider, such as pearled, liquid, and even brick. They can create unique elements of depth, movement, and glowing colour changes.

4.  Determine If You Want A Printed Glass Splashback

The ability to create a vivid, dramatic accent to a chosen paint colour is a benefit of a glass splashback in the kitchen. Future blog posts will cover paint choice tips and advice in detail.

Beyond paint, a printed glass splashback is an exciting new trend in Victoria’s home market.

Thanks to advanced printing and glass technology, high-quality images of sunsets, cityscapes, flowers, family or anything else a designer can dream up can be printed behind the glass.

While this choice can add unique detail to any kitchen, the image selection needs to be part of the glass order. That way, the glass company can make the proper measurements for both the glass and the image.

5. Choose an Affixing Strategy

There are 2 main ways to affix your glass splashback to the kitchen walls.

• Adhesive creates a seamless, contemporary look.
• Screws create a more industrial, modern look.

Please note: If the design calls for screws, the hole locations need to be plotted and finalised before ordering the glass.

Like splashbacks made of natural stone, glass splashbacks require an additional level of kitchen design planning.

That’s because the glass needs to be cut to size before it’s toughened. Once this is done, the entire piece cannot be cut or processed in any way.

This puts a premium on formulating and finalising the kitchen design plan before any measurements are taken. It also puts a premium on the measurements themselves.

Below, we analyse the main risks and rewards of a cut to size glass splashback in West Melbourne. By doing so, we hope to show you how professional measurements and installation helps create a successful splashback project.

Risks

When considering a glass splashback project, the biggest fear is an ill-fitting piece of glass that needs to be sent back to the glazier.

This can result in major delays and added costs. From our experience, here are the main reasons this situation comes about.

1. Inaccurate Measurements

Measuring the surface area for a glass splashback can get complex in a hurry.

There’s the state of the wall space to consider. Is it straight?

Then there’s the shape of the opening. Are there arches to account for? How far does the range hood drop down? Are the cabinets a uniform distance from the worktop or do some hang down further than others?

Are there cut-outs for switches and/or power outlets? How about the pot-filling faucet over the oven hob?

In addition to these initial questions, changes to the kitchen plan layout require careful consideration.

After all, moving the location of a single power outlet opening will require a new measurement.

If you order the glass and then decide to move a wall socket 20 centimetres to the right, the access point will not line up properly with the socket.

2.  Edge Tolerance

During the measuring process, it’s industry standard to include a 2mm tolerance between the edge of the kitchen element and the glass.

These dimensions are perfect as they allow room for the sanitary grade silicone to penetrate and seal the join, while not being noticeable to the naked eye.

In addition, this space acts as an allowance for the glass to move slightly if the house moves or settles.

3.  Join Lines and Intersecting Panels

If the cabinets and worktop continue onto adjoining walls, continuing the glass splashback creates a continuous, seamless look.

However, this also creates intersections where one glass panel meets the other.

These situations create micro measurements that can be difficult to calculate accurately by do-it-yourselfers.

An alternative option is to attach the glass to the walls with screws. This choice moves away from the seamless contemporary style toward a more industrial, modern look.

It also involves an extra layer of planning because the screw holes need to be drilled before the glass get’s toughened.

Rewards

Getting all these measurements correct is a tough job, but the effort is worth it! Here are the benefits of a perfectly-measured cut to size glass splashback.

1. A Unique Bespoke Kitchen Feature

Glass splashbacks enable kitchen designers to make a creative and stylish focal point in the space.

If the wall space lacks natural light, mirror splashbacks can:

• Reflect natural light from nearby openings;
• Invite other areas of an open floor plan into the kitchen; and
• Increase the kitchen’s “daylighting” effect.

If the kitchen has a neutral or white palette, painted glass splashbacks make a stunning feature. For example, you can:

• Create a modern, eye-popping contrast by installing a black glass splashback cut to size;
• Amplify the stainless steel accents of appliances and fixtures by using metallic paints behind the glass; or
• Blend with nearby wall colours to maintain a clean, neutral theme.

Design Tip: There’s no need to worry about the selected colour changing because of the glass. Quality glaziers use low-iron glass, which improves transparency 4-5% over regular glass.

If the designer or homeowner desires a strong personal statement in the kitchen, a printed glass splashback offers the ability to:

• Display favourite cityscapes, landscapes, or family photos;
• Incorporate a favourite pattern in the splashback wall space; and
• Preserve favourite images of nature, destinations, or even people.

2.  A Seamless Look Free of Grout Lines

Glass panels can be cut from sheets as large as 3.8 metres.

This means most wall spaces can be covered by just one or two panels.

When two panels intersect, a sanitary grade silicone sealant gets applied to fill the gap.

Unlike tile grout, this sealant is easy to clean. It’s also mould and mildew resistant. Plus, it’s colourlessness making it hard to notice.

3.  A Safe, Durable Splashback

No matter the style choice, a professionally cut to size glass splashback offers:

• Easy cleaning;
• Wall protection; and
• Resistance to chips and cracks (it’s up to 5 times stronger than regular annealed glass).

The toughening process creates a sheet of glass that can withstand extreme heat (up to 250 degrees C) and impact.

In addition, any destruction that may occur as a result of an earthquake or other natural disaster won’t result in dangerous jagged shards of splashback glass. Instead, toughened glass breaks into small pieces.

Economy Glass Approach: Cut to Size Glass Splashbacks

Most openings provided by even the best builders and cabinet makers have a degree of tolerance during construction.

Ensuring the glass follows these external walls as closely as possible hides any imperfections and ensures that you are able to secure a perfect fit for the homeowner.

At Economy Glass, our technicians constantly train with the cutting edge of laser measuring technology.

This enables us to offer glass splashbacks cut to size in an almost unlimited range of shapes and finishes. In addition, our 700m2 warehouse includes all the processing equipment necessary for complex jobs.

Combine these facts with the use of high quality glass, premium paints and some of the fastest turnaround times in Hoppers Crossing and West Melbourne, and it becomes clear that Economy Glass is a top choice for any glass splashback project.

Whether it’s for a new home or a remodel in Melbourne’s Western Suburbs, kitchen design projects should take market value into account.

One of the most impactful design choices, according to a recent Zillow study, is kitchen colour.

This study, which analysed colour schemes of nearly 50,000 homes over a 10-year period, found homes with neutral paint selections tended to sell above the asking price. Homes with bolder choices more often sold below asking price.

Another factor that affects a home’s market value is kitchen craftsmanship. Trulia says kitchens and bathrooms are the two interior spaces where the most value can be added during a sale.

So, it makes sense that a well-crafted and well-appointed kitchen will help a home create more value than a home with a sloppy, poorly-appointed kitchen.

Both factors converge in a glass splashback project.

With the right colour selections and quality craftsmanship, you can create a stunning interior focal point that will help the home sell. If those factors aren’t addressed, however, you may have to remove the glass splashback, which can lead to higher costs and long delays.

Below, we detail 4 crucial decision points in every splashback project that will help the feature withstand the test of time so that it can be an asset when it comes time to sell the home.

1. Use Low-Iron Glass

In regular glass (also called “clear” glass), the iron content creates a greenish tint, which is especially prevalent around the edges.

Ultimately, using regular glass leads to big problems. The selected paint colour will look much different behind the glass than it does anywhere else.

Yet there’s no way to know the level of colour distortion until the splashback gets fixed to the wall. By then, it’s too late!This creates a major issue for kitchen designers, who select the paint colour to work together with other kitchen elements to achieve his/her desired look.

If regular glass distorts the paint colour too much, the designer may want the entire glass splashback removed. Premium manufacturers, like Economy Glass, always use low-iron glass for higher quality and more accurate colouring.

Features of low-iron glass include better:

• Transparency;
• Light transmission;
• Brightness; and
• Colour restitution.

In fact, low-iron glass improves transparency by 4-5% over the regular glass.

This means the selected colour will show through the glass with the utmost clarity, reducing the risk of a dissatisfied client and the need to remove the glass splashback.

2. Cut the Glass with the Proper Tolerances

It’s industry standard to include a 2mm tolerance between the edge of the kitchen element and the glass.

These dimensions are perfect as they allow room for the sanitary grade silicone to penetrate and seal the join, while not being noticeable to the naked eye.

In addition, this space acts as an allowance for the glass to move slightly if the house moves or settles. This presents a craftsmanship challenge for the glass manufacturer.

If they measure and cut the glass with tolerances that are too small, the glass may shift and affect the spaces around power outlets, the worktop and the cabinets. If they measure and cut the glass with tolerances that are too wide, the seamless quality of the glass could be altered by visible sealant lines.

At Economy Glass, our technicians constantly train with the cutting edge of laser measuring technology. This enables us to offer glass splashbacks cut to size in an almost unlimited range of shapes and finishes. It also means that we measure tolerances with the utmost accuracy and cut the glass to precisely follow those measurements.

3. Choose Colours with Care

One of the many benefits of a glass splashback is the fact that the glass protects paint from fading. Combined with the use of low-iron glass, this means your initial colour selection will stay true and vibrant for many years.

It also means the initial colour choice is vital for the long-term success of the feature. If the selected colour helps promote a timeless style to the space, it will be a market value asset.

If it doesn’t, you may have to removing glass splashback to paint the wall a different colour.

What types of colours promote timeless style?

It’s no secret that neutral tones appeal to more homebuyers than bolder choices. By pairing the splashback colour with the selected neutral tones of the surrounding walls, you can create a clean look that will appeal to many home buyers.

Yet this is not a uniform rule by any means. For instance, research shows homes with all-white kitchen palettes sell below expectations.

Pairing a white colour palette with a painted glass splashback, however, accentuates all the cleanliness and freshness of a white kitchen, while adding a stand-out compliment of colour and depth.

4. Select Digital Prints with Staying Power

Building on the point above, printed glass splashbacks give designers and remodelling homeowners the opportunity to put their personal statements on kitchen space.

They can display their favourite pattern, family photo, landscape or cityscape in a unique, eye-catching way.

For resale purposes, however, their personal statement may not appeal to wider audiences. If the selected image is too personalised, you may have to removing glass splashback and the print to find another solution.

Conclusion: Removing a Glass Splashback Should Be a Last Resort

There’s no limit to the amount of personalisation you can pour into a home. Thanks to their safety features, durability and light-reflecting qualities, glass splashbacks offer designers an almost limitless spectrum of colours and decor choices.

Yet in this ultra-competitive atmosphere of Melbourne’s housing market, homebuyers only reward the best design choices and the best quality craftsmanship. That’s why it’s important to consider these tips when designing your glass splashback project.

With the right colour choices and installation techniques, the splashback will present the “wow factor” that will help the home sell fast for a premium price.

Glass splashbacks are versatile. They can used in many ways throughout the home, always creating an interesting and elegant design feature.

For example, they can be used in the kitchen for the wall panelling around the kitchen bench and the oven hob. They can also be used in the kicker panels, which are the low panels on the bottom of your kitchen.

Glass is great for the kitchen because if it becomes splattered with food or drink, it can easily be wiped down.

Glass splashbacks can also be used in the bathroom. Splashback ideas you can also use for your bathroom renovations. 

For example, there are shower liner glass splashbacks that are installed in the same method as tiles. First, the board goes in and becomes waterproofed and then the glass shower liner is glued to the wall and sealed in place. It is also possible to use splashbacks behind the bathroom vanity, and even the mirror.

Glass splashbacks are not only used in the kitchen or in the bathroom. They can be creatively applied in a range of other settings throughout the house, including in the interior walls, ceilings, joinery coverings, wall panelling in the entranceways and furniture. They are visually stunning in all other areas of the house.

A glass splashback will give your home in the western suburbs of Melbourne a very modern look.
