Totally Flawless Terra Cotta Tile Backsplash
July 24, 2014 | Written by Josh Robinson | Posted in Kitchen
Sometimes it only takes small changes to improve a room in your home. Updating one piece can enhance the entire look.
For this kitchen in Oreland, PA, a brand new terra cotta tile backsplash was the next step to a perfect space.
These homeowners got a new granite counter top and wanted to complement the look of the kitchen.
When choosing backsplash tiles, look for a color that is similar to the natural shading of the granite. Straying too far from the color palette in place could lead to clashing.
JR Carpentry & Tile selected a 3×6 terra cotta tile with a white crackled glaze coloring. The 1/4″ grout joints with a pearl colored power grout, made by Tec, is meant to last for many years into the future. The ColorFast grout is self-sealing and never has to be resealed – it’s also antimicrobial. When used with a ceramic or porcelain tile, it never requires maintenance.
