The different colour styles available

Stevenage Glass has committed to giving its customers complete flexibility.

That’s why, for our range of glass splashbacks, we can colour match your new splashback with any colour from the RAL Colour Chart, Dulux Paint, and Farrow and Ball Paint range.

This gives you a huge variety of choice, and ensures you can choose a splashback that fits seamlessly within your kitchen.

But, how do you narrow down your search?

Firstly, we recommend that you pinpoint the colour style of your kitchen.

You might have already deliberately chosen this style (in this case, the job is easy!). Or, you might not have consciously gone for a particular design style.

So, take a look at your kitchen and consider, is it classic, contemporary, bold, modern, traditional, or themed?

Take note, deciding this is not about physically matching the colour of your splashback with an item in your kitchen (like choosing a grey splashback to match your fridge). Instead, it’s about identifying a colour that compliments the overall style.

With this in mind, these are the key areas that you should consider when colour matching your splashback to the kitchen.

Colour Matching with the Kitchen Worktop

Rather than choosing a splashback that precisely colour matches your worktop, we recommend finding a colour that compliments your worktop and your overall kitchen design.

This is because, if your worktop gets damaged or you choose to replace it with another material, then a perfectly matching splashback could start to look odd in your kitchen.

Although a new worktop is a costly replacement to make in a hurry, choosing a complimentary colour will ensure you get the maximum possible lifespan out of your splashback.

Colour Matching with the Units

The units themselves are the fixtures in your kitchen that are least likely to be changed.

So, these should be your priority when colour matching your splashback. After all, you’d only be likely to change your units if you’re wanting a complete kitchen overall.

And, if you aren’t sure about how much you like your existing units, you might want to think about changing those before you invest in fixtures like splashbacks.

Colour Matching with the Tiles or Wall

Tiles and wall colours are among the areas of your kitchen that you’re the most likely to replace.

So, we strongly advise against exactly colour matching your splashback to your tiles or wall paint – unless you absolutely plan to keep these the same for the foreseeable future.

Instead, pinpoint your kitchen’s style theme, and choose a complimentary splashback colour.

Colour Matching with the Appliances

Equally, we would suggest that you avoid going down the route of using appliances to colour match your splashback.

After all, your appliances are the things that are the most likely to change. So, the splashback may no longer match if you want to change said items.

Although precise colour matching can be done faster, identifying and following existing kitchen styles is the best way to ensure splashbacks are investments that last.

At Stevenage Glass, we can colour match your new splashback exactly, to the precise colour of your choice. We can also provide you with specialist colour match glass splashbacks advice, to help guide you through your decision.
