Countertops

Backsplash and Tile
Backsplash tile is shaking it up in kitchens. Basic subway tiles are out, with large, pattern tiling and full slabs of beautifully patterned marble covering the backs of kitchens in many different colors. Using exotic stone in exciting bold colors is one of the top masonry trends of the year in both kitchens and bathrooms. Whether it’s in flooring, showers, behind the oven, or all over the kitchen walls – bright backsplashes, tile, and statement piece wall treatments are here to stay.
Materials go far beyond marble and granite. For a modern and industrial look, consider concrete or quartz.
