SPLASHBACKS
Have you thought about what you would like on the walls once your new worktops have been installed? Tiles and glass splashbacks are a popular choice however for the wow finish
You can have a continuation of your worktop on the wall, up to the upper cabinets.
UPSTANDS
Upstands are usually 100mm high, this helps create a nice flow from the worktop to the
wall, more importantly they help protect walls from splashes. You can either paint, tile or
add a glass splash back above.
