FAQs
Can I install this splashback myself?
Yes, with careful measurement and preparation, DIY installation is possible. However, for a perfect finish and to avoid damage, professional installation is recommended, especially for larger sizes or if you are unfamiliar with handling glass.
How thick is the glass?
The splashbacks are made from 6mm thick toughened glass.
Can I place the splashback behind any type of hob?
Yes, the toughened glass is heat-resistant, making it suitable for use behind gas, electric, or induction hobs. Always adhere to the minimum distance recommendations provided by your hob manufacturer and local building codes.
What if my kitchen measurements are not standard?
The splashbacks are available in a range of standard sizes. For custom dimensions outside of these, you would need to consult with a specialist glass supplier for bespoke cutting services.
How do I clean stubborn stains or marks?
For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Avoid using abrasive pads or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch the glass surface.
What is the warranty period for the splashback?
Please refer to the specific warranty information provided by the retailer at the time of purchase for details on coverage and duration.
Can I upload my own design or photo?
Yes, a key feature is the ability to upload your own design or photo for a personalized splashback. Ensure the image is high-resolution for best print quality.
Troubleshooting
Splashback does not sit flush against the wall.
Ensure the wall surface is completely flat and smooth before installation. Unevenness may require wall preparation or the use of a thicker adhesive bead in specific spots.
Adhesive is not holding the splashback securely.
Verify that the correct type of adhesive for glass splashbacks has been used and applied according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the wall surface was clean and dry during application.
Visible smudges or streaks after cleaning.
Use a dedicated glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth for a streak-free finish. Avoid over-applying cleaner. Wipe in a consistent direction (e.g., horizontal or vertical).
Damage occurred during installation.
Handle glass with care during installation. If damage occurs, contact the supplier for replacement options; repair of toughened glass is not typically feasible.
