Kitchen splashback tiling Canberra
A compact tiling job where every line stays visible.
A splashback may cover a smaller area, but cabinets, power points, corners and bench lines make the set-out highly visible. LITA Tiling quotes splashbacks as a complete small project, including the agreed preparation, tile layout, cuts, grout and flexible bench junctions.

Common questions
Is a small splashback job worth quoting?
Yes. Send the wall dimensions, tile choice and clear photos so the small scope can be assessed efficiently.
Should the kitchen be installed before tiling?
The finished bench and cabinet positions usually define the splashback. The trade sequence should be confirmed before booking.
Can you tile around existing power points?
The tile layout can account for outlets, but electrical removal or alteration must be handled by the appropriate trade where required.
