Kitchen & Splashback Tiling
Splashbacks, feature walls and kitchen floors tiled to a sharp, hard-wearing finish that stands up to daily life.
The splashback is the most-looked-at surface in any kitchen, so the tiling needs to be sharp. Premium Tiling Services lays kitchen splashbacks, feature walls and floors with the precise setting-out and clean grout lines that make a kitchen feel finished.
Whether it is a subway-tile classic, a slimline mosaic or a large-format statement, we plan the layout around your benchtop, cooktop, windows and powerpoints so the pattern lands cleanly and the cuts look intentional.

Questions
Kitchen & Splashback Tiling — your questions answered.
How much disruption is a splashback tiling job?
Less than most people expect. A splashback is a contained area, so the work is usually quick and tidy compared with a full renovation. We protect your benchtop and appliances, contain dust, and clean down when we finish. Most splashbacks are completed in a short window once the wall is ready, and we will give you a clear timeline up front so you can plan around it.
Can you tile around powerpoints and the rangehood?
Yes. Powerpoints, switches, window returns and rangehood penetrations are all part of a normal splashback job. We measure and cut so the tile sits neatly around each one with even margins, and we plan the setting-out so cuts fall where they look best. Clean work around these details is exactly what separates a good splashback from an average one.
Do you tile kitchen floors as well as splashbacks?
Yes. We tile kitchen and dining floors as well as splashbacks and feature walls, and we are happy to do both in the one visit. Floor tiling needs a flat, sound substrate and the right tile for a high-traffic, occasionally wet area, and we will talk through suitable formats and finishes when we quote so the floor wears well for years.
What tile works best for a kitchen splashback?
That depends on your kitchen and your taste, but durability and ease of cleaning matter most behind a cooktop. Glazed ceramic, porcelain and glass all clean up well; mosaics add detail but have more grout to maintain. We are happy to talk through formats and finishes during the quote and explain how each choice affects the setting-out, the look and the upkeep.
Can you match tiling to an existing kitchen?
Often, yes. If you are updating part of a kitchen or repairing a damaged section, we will do our best to match the existing tile, layout and grout. Exact matches are not always possible if a tile has been discontinued, but we will be straight with you about what is achievable and suggest options — such as a deliberate feature section — if a seamless match cannot be found.
Do I need to remove the old splashback first?
Not yourself — we can handle removal of an old splashback as part of the job, then prepare the wall so the new tiling has a sound, flat surface to bond to. Removal and prep are quoted as part of the work, so there are no surprises. If the wall behind needs patching or repair before tiling, we will let you know before we start.
How do you keep grout lines straight on a splashback?
With careful setting-out before any tile goes on the wall. We measure the area, mark out reference lines, and plan the layout around the benchtop, windows and any features so the courses run level and the joints stay consistent. Spacers, levels and a steady approach do the rest. Straight, even grout lines are one of the clearest signs of a properly tiled splashback.
