Laundry Room Backsplash

Laundry might be a boring household task for many people but it doesn’t mean that your laundry room has to be boring too! There are many ways to make your laundry room a more joyful space without sacrificing functionality, and a backsplash is one of the best ways. Just like the kitchens, backsplashes also make a big difference in laundry rooms. Here, we gather stylish laundry room backsplash ideas that will elevate your design!

When it comes to laundry room design, functionality is the main aspect. However, a laundry room can be functional and stylish at the same time. And thanks to their endless variety of color, shape, pattern, and texture options, backsplashes are a great way to make a personal touch and create one-of-a-kind rooms.

How to install a backsplash in the laundry room?

The backsplash installation varies from type to type. Wallpapers and wall panels are easier to install than tiles. You can install them with a few tools which you can find in your local home improvement store.

If you are working with tiles, you need painter’s tape, measuring tape, scraper, notched trowel, pencil, tile cutter, tile adhesive, spacers, grout float, sponge, and grout. Before the installation, you need to prepare the walls. Take out any bumps along the walls with a scraper to create a smooth surface for tiles. Then you need to measure the backsplash area to find whether you need to do any cuts. If you need to cut tiles, you need to use a specialized tool. For example, a simple tile cutter can be enough for ceramic tiles but if you working with marble or glass tiles you need to use a wet saw to prevent cracks.

After the preparation, now it is time to start the installation. First, define the limits with a painter’s tape, mix the adhesive according to manufacturers’ instructions, and apply the adhesive in small sections by using the trowel. Lay your first tile and move upwards from there. Don’t forget to use spacers to hold the tile in place. Once you lay all the tiles, leave them overnight to dry. Now that the tiles are dried, prepare the grout and remove the spacers. Apply the grout with a float by using 45 angled motions. One applied the grout, clean the tile surfaces with a damp sponge. According to the material, you may also need to seal your laundry room backsplash.
