Full Height Backsplash in Mercer Island, WA

A Full Height Backsplash suits the custom kitchens of Mercer Island, WA, where the wall behind the range is part of the design. Custom homes with detailed layouts often include windows, niches and hoods that panels must wrap neatly. We template those details digitally, then place seams at natural breaks.

Mid-century homes being updated with cleaner lines look especially good with one continuous surface from counter to ceiling. In waterfront and view homes, large panels keep the wall quiet so Lake Washington stays the focus.

Because every delivery crosses the I-90 floating bridge, we plan panel delivery ahead so fragile edges are protected. Call us and we will review your elevations.

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 Mercer Island 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 Mercer Island: 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. We capture each opening digitally and specify the panels to match it.

It means we plan delivery ahead and confirm timing with you, so ask us for current scheduling.
