Kitchen backsplashes are a timeless and simple addition to a kitchen that builds depth, cleanliness, and sophistication. Since the kitchen is one of the most utilized rooms in the house, you are going to spend a lot of time looking at the space between your countertop and cabinets. A well installed backsplash not only increases the beauty of the kitchen, but also the value of the house. Since a backsplash does not include a large amount of square footage, the pricing consists mainly of the time required to do the job. 

With most backsplashes, a two day timeframe is needed. The first day is spent in proper preparation of the area to be tiled, as well as the laying of the tile. The second day is spent grouting, caulking, and putting the perfect finishing touches on the project. At Stuart Tile, we typically charge $2,000 for a backsplash including all labor and materials (except tile). The materials included consist of all tile setting materials, grout color of your choice, metal trim for the edges of the backsplash, and any other materials needed to complete the job. 

When it comes to tile installation, you get what you pay for. There are plenty of other options for installers around the Iowa City area, and we very well may not be the best fit for you and the budget of your project. Those who have worked with us in the past have been extremely satisfied with the end product and service they received in working with Stuart Tile.
