In the modern home, a kitchen is more than just a cooking space. It’s the central hub. A place where a family comes together, a place for food preparation AND an area for entertaining.
It’s also a room that can be easily personalized to reflect the unique style of the owner. This is one of the reasons why glass splashbacks are fast becoming one of the most popular choices for a modern kitchen that can be completely customized to any style or liking.
There are also many other reasons for the rise in their popularity. Here are the top 7 benefits of choosing glass over other options:
#️⃣1. Easy To Clean and Hygienic
With glass, there’s no having to buy and use harsh chemical cleaning products to remove stains from grout or in cracks of other porous surfaces. With glass, cleaning is simple and easy - just wipe clean.
#️⃣2. Heat Resistant
When exposed to heat for long periods of time, glass won’t change colour or shape, which means lower repair and maintenance costs down the track compared to other options.
#️⃣3. Completely Customizable
Want an eye-catching colour or even a bold mirror finish? How about a sentimental photo or feature pattern on your wall? These options and more are absolutely possible with glass, where nearly anything your imagination can conjure up can be brought to life. This customisation is unparalleled with other options.
#️⃣4. Biggest Bang-For-Your-Buck Change
Sometimes, when working within a budget, you might not want to change out a whole kitchen, but just give it a bit of a style refresh. Glass can be installed with very minimal downtime compared to other splashbacks. Simply updating the splash back will change the whole dynamic of the room without spending tens of thousands of dollars on whole new kitchen.
#️⃣5. Luxurious Modern Look
For those who spend a lot of time in the kitchen it’s no secret we want to be proud of our cooking area, and have a space that others are going to hopefully be impressed by. We want something modern and classy, with glass offering just that. Perfect for modern or contemporary style kitchens.
#️⃣6. Light reflection
Brighten up the area instantly with no extra lighting, leaving fewer shadows and less eye strain especially when cooking at night.
#️⃣7. Quick Installation
Once everything is measured and painted back at the workshop, a glass kitchen splashack only takes a maximum of 90 minutes to install. No mess, no fuss, no tiling, no grout or waiting to dry.
Combine all the reasons above with the fact that glass is not nearly as expensive as some people think (and over the long term they actually become more cost-effective than other options), and it’s hard to imagine going with anything else.
