FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of the splashback?

The splashback measures 600cm in length and 75cm in height.

Is the toughened glass safe if it breaks?

Yes, toughened glass is designed to shatter into small, relatively harmless pieces if broken, rather than sharp shards.

Can I cut this splashback to a different size?

It is not recommended to cut toughened glass, as this can compromise its structural integrity and cause it to break. Professional cutting is complex and may not be feasible.

What type of adhesive should I use?

Use a high-strength, clear, silicone-based adhesive specifically designed for glass and suitable for kitchen environments. Always check the adhesive manufacturer's recommendations.

How resistant is the high-gloss finish to scratches?

While the high-gloss finish is attractive, it can be susceptible to scratches from abrasive materials. Gentle cleaning methods are recommended to preserve its finish.

Can this splashback be installed over existing tiles?

It is generally best to install on a flat, smooth, and stable wall surface. If the tiles are perfectly flat and adhered securely, it might be possible, but it's often recommended to remove old wall coverings for optimal adhesion and a seamless finish.

Does the splashback come with pre-drilled holes for sockets?

The product description does not mention pre-drilled holes. Typically, glass splashbacks are installed as a solid panel, and any necessary cut-outs for sockets would need to be done professionally before installation, or the splashback fitted around existing fixtures.

Troubleshooting

Splashback appears uneven after installation.

This may indicate the wall surface was not perfectly flat. Ensure all adhesive has cured. Minor unevenness may be difficult to correct without reinstallation.

Bubbles or gaps visible under the splashback.

This suggests air was trapped during installation. It is best to address this during the initial fitting process. If bubbles are significant, reinstallation might be necessary.

Color appears different than expected.

Lighting conditions can affect color perception. View the splashback in different lighting. Ensure the correct product has been received by checking labels.

Difficulty cleaning specific stains.

Try a dedicated glass cleaner, applied sparingly to a soft cloth, and wipe gently. Avoid prolonged contact with harsh chemicals.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation typically involves adhering the splashback to the wall using appropriate adhesives suitable for glass and kitchen environments. Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and level before application. Follow the included instructions carefully for best results. It is recommended to have two people for installation due to the size and weight of the splashback.

Compatibility: This splashback is designed for interior kitchen walls. Ensure compatibility with your existing wall structure and ensure there are no obstructions behind the wall where you plan to install it. It is suitable for installation behind various types of hobs, including gas and electric, provided there is adequate ventilation and clearance as per your hob manufacturer's safety guidelines.

Care: To maintain the high-gloss finish and the integrity of the toughened glass, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or damage the surface. For stubborn spots, a glass cleaner can be used sparingly. Always dry the surface with a clean, lint-free cloth after cleaning to prevent water spots.
