Is this splashback suitable for behind a gas hob?
While it offers durability, always check local building regulations and manufacturer guidelines for heat resistance specifications, especially for direct heat sources like gas hobs.
Can I cut the splashback to a custom size?
Yes, the splashback can be cut to size. However, it is recommended that this is done by a professional installer using appropriate tools to ensure clean edges and prevent damage.
How often should I clean the splashback?
For best results and to maintain its appearance, it is recommended to wipe the splashback clean daily or after each use to prevent stains from setting.
What does the lifetime guarantee cover?
The lifetime guarantee covers manufacturing defects and faults in materials. It is designed to provide peace of mind regarding the product's integrity over its lifespan under normal usage conditions.
Is the cement finish prone to cracking?
The material is designed for durability in kitchen environments. Cracking is unlikely under normal use, but significant impacts or improper installation could potentially cause damage.
Can I install this splashback over existing tiles?
Generally, splashbacks are best installed on a flat, clean, and dry substrate. Installing over uneven tiles may lead to adhesion issues or an uneven finish. Proper surface preparation is crucial.
Troubleshooting
Splashback appears uneven after installation
Ensure the wall surface was flat and properly prepared before adhesion. Minor imperfections may be addressed by a professional installer.
Stains are difficult to remove
Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for kitchen surfaces. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
Edges appear chipped
Handle the splashback with care during installation. Minor chips might be repairable with specific filler products, but significant damage may require replacement of the section.
Surface feels rougher than expected
The tactile stone-inspired finish is intentional. If the roughness is excessive or inconsistent, check for debris trapped on the surface or consult the manufacturer.
