Determining Backsplash Requirements

In virtually all cases, the installation of new countertops will require you to make a decision about backsplashes. The backsplash can be an important focal point in a room. There are so many different types and styles of backsplash that it makes it a great tool when customizing your kitchen. While you can go with no backsplash at all, having a backsplash on wall surfaces not only adds a finishing and elegant touch to your counters, it also provides protection for accidental spills. All of AGS’ backsplashes are custom measured and fabricated to fit your kitchen.
