3 WHY CHOOSE GLASS SPLASHBACKS? Splashbacks are a diverse and modern feature in the home. Commonly found in the kitchen, they are essentially one large glass tile that works to protect the wall behind the glass surface. With a range of colours, patterns and finishes to choose from, your splashback will not only provide a practical function but will complement the rest of your room beautifully; matching your current interior design.

4 WHAT SHOULD I CONSIDER? It s important to take your time when choosing your splashback, as there are many things to consider to make sure you end up with exactly what you wanted. Top Tip Add some under-cabinet lighting for glossy reflections and a sophisticated look. Colour Our customers can choose their desired colour from the RAL colour chart. With plenty of variation in shades, you don t have to worry about not finding the right one! We also offer a colour matching service for if you d like your splashback to match your walls or kitchen cabinets exactly! Toughened Be aware that the glass going directly behind the hob needs to be toughened. The rest of the splashback can be regular, untoughened glass if you wish. Rooms They are great for bouncing light around a room, making a confined space look spacious. Consider all your options, as splashbacks are not simply confined to the kitchen area. They are also extremely practical in bathrooms and en-suites, behind sinks, baths and inside shower enclosures, creating a glossy surface whilst protecting the wall behind from sprays and splashes. Have you thought about glass upstands for a small border? 4 Stevenage Glass Splashbacks

5 FAs What if I want a print, rather than a colour? What is the thickness of the glass? A We can source most prints, so if you see something you like, bring it in and we can make it into a splashback. A Splashback thickness is usually 6mm, but we can do other thicknesses e.g. 8mm. Can I cut the glass myself? Can you see through the glass? A If your splashback is made from toughened, heat-resistant glass, then it cannot be cut once fitted. However, if the glass has not been toughened, then it can be cut safely. A The glass is back-painted so you cannot see through to the wall or the adhesive. So unlike stained glass, it is a completely opaque finish. Do you offer any guarantees? A We offer a 3 year guarantee against colour failure. Please note: there are no guarantees on breakages, except if the splashback was to break off its own accord. I have sockets and light switches where I want the splashback to go. Is this okay? A As long as you inform us of these before the glass is toughened, this is fine. What condition does my wall need to be in? A Our glass can be used on most surfaces, so don t worry too much about the condition of your walls. Stevenage Glass Splashbacks 5

6 HOW TO MEASURE UP Once you ve chosen the splashback you d like, you just need to take a few measurements which will enable us to supply the exact size and shape you need. If you require supply only, these will be the measurements we refer to when cutting the glass. If you are having a supply and fitting service from us, then we will send out one of our glaziers to take secondary measurements, once the job has been agreed - just to make sure we have 100% accurate measurements to work with! 1 2 Draw a horizontal line that is in the middle of the wall space, between your worktop and your wall cabinets. Next, measure the vertical lines to make sure the lines are all equal Add up the total number of sockets and light switches the splashback area will cover. Take dimensions to the centre of the sockets; both width and height. 6 Stevenage Glass Splashbacks

7 MAINTENANCE AND UPKEEP It s imperative to factor splashbacks into your regular cleaning regime - luckily, glass splashbacks are one of the easiest materials to keep clean! Step 1 First, remove any grease or fatty deposits using a damp sponge. Remember to pay particular attention to behind the hob, as this is where most of the grease and fat will build up. Step 2 Using a streak-free glass cleaner, spray over the glass and leave for 1-2 minutes, then thoroughly wipe clean using a lint-free cloth. We do NOT recommend using any abrasive or hard-cleaning pads or cloths, as these could scratch the glass. Likewise, you should never use any harsh solvents either. Top Tip Clean any splashes or spills as soon as you see them, before they have a chance to set. Stevenage Glass Splashbacks 7
