Full Height Backsplash in Edmonds, WA

In Edmonds, WA, a Full Height Backsplash can frame a Puget Sound view or quietly calm a busy cooking wall. Large stone panels run from counter to cabinet or ceiling without grout lines, which suits the open living areas and big windows common in waterfront and view homes. Older Craftsman and mid-century houses, however, bring walls that are not always flat, so we check the surface before panels are specified and place seams at window edges and cabinet borders. On sloping view lots, we also plan how panels get up the drive and into the house. Send us a photo of your wall using the quote form to talk it through.

A full height backsplash treats the wall as a design surface instead of a thin strip of tile. Large stone or porcelain panels run from the countertop to the cabinets or ceiling, so the cooking wall reads as one clean plane.

We plan it the same way we plan a countertop: digital templating, careful seam placement and a layout that works with the veining.

Scope of work

What Your Full Height Backsplash Project in Edmonds Includes

  • Full-height stone backsplash behind a range with floating shelves

    Material guidance

    Porcelain, quartz, sintered stone and natural stone each behave differently on a wall. We help you choose for the room and the amount of splash and heat.

  • Dark stone backsplash carried from the countertop up the wall

    Seam and vein planning

    Vertical seams are placed at natural breaks such as window edges and cabinet borders, and veining is matched across joints where the slab allows.

  • Dark stone backsplash wall continuing from the countertop to the upper cabinets

    Matched to your counter

    Where possible the wall and countertop come from the same material family, so the joint between them becomes a quiet detail.

  • Marble-look stone column beside a tall window

    Cutouts for outlets and switches

    Openings are planned from your final electrical locations so cover plates sit flush.

  • Careful panel handling

    Large panels are heavy and fragile at the edges, so we plan how they are lifted and set before install day.

Questions

Full Height Backsplash in Edmonds: Your Questions Answered

A standard backsplash is a short strip of tile above the counter. A full height backsplash covers the wall up to the cabinets or ceiling with large stone panels.

Large-format porcelain is the usual choice because it is non-porous and comes in big panels. Quartz, sintered stone and natural stone also work, depending on the room.

We place them at natural breaks such as window edges and cabinet borders, and avoid running one through the middle of an open panel or a strong vein.

Yes. Seams are placed at window edges, so the stone frames the view in your Edmonds kitchen instead of competing with it.

Often a little. We check the wall during planning, and any correction happens before the panels arrive.
