A glass splashback is a panel of glass fixed to the wall behind a benchtop. With no grout lines, it gives you an easy-to-clean surface and a contemporary finish. Glass Group designs and installs glass splashbacks for homes and commercial kitchens across Wellington and Kāpiti, Taranaki and Central Otago.
Glass splashbacks are often coloured on the back, so the colour sits behind a smooth glass face.
Standard clear glass has a slight green tint, which can change how a colour looks, especially whites and pale shades.
Low-iron glass is extra clear, so colours stay true. Our team can talk you through the options.
| Feature | Glass splashback | Tiles |
|---|---|---|
| Cleaning | One smooth surface, no grout to scrub | Grout lines collect grease and stains |
| Look | Seamless, glossy colour | Pattern and texture from the tiles |
| Joins | One panel, or a few panels with minimal joins | Many joins |

It depends on the look you want. Glass gives one smooth surface with no
grout lines, so it’s quicker to clean. Tiles give pattern and texture, and a single damaged tile can be replaced on its
own.
