Splashbacks do more than just protecting walls – they also add a touch of style and personality to your space.
They are commonly found in busy areas like kitchens and laundries, guarding against food splatter and water spills. A popular D.I.Y. project, installing splashbacks is also an inexpensive way to give these spaces an easy makeover.
