Product Information

Full details

This Fluted Glass Bathroom Splashback from Splashback is designed for homeowners looking to protect their walls from steam and splashes with a stylish, modern solution. Its key benefit is providing a grout-free, easy-to-clean alternative to tiles that adds a unique textural element and enhances light. A potential caveat is that the fluted design, while visually appealing, might require slightly more attention when cleaning due to its ridges compared to a flat surface. This 60cm wide splashback is crafted from 4mm toughened glass, individually handmade in the UK, and features pre-drilled holes for straightforward installation.

FAQs

What are the dimensions of this splashback?

The splashback measures 60.0 cm in width, 25.0 cm in height, and has a depth of 0.4 cm (4mm).

Can I install this splashback over existing tiles?

This splashback is designed for direct installation onto walls. It is not recommended for installation over existing tiles as the surface might not be smooth or stable enough for a secure fit.

How do I clean the fluted glass surface effectively?

Clean the fluted glass using warm, soapy water and a soft cloth. For stubborn marks, a non-abrasive glass cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by rinsing and thorough drying to maintain clarity and prevent streaks in the grooves.

What materials are the fixing kit and decorative caps made of?

The product description mentions a fixing kit and choice of decorative caps. While specific materials aren't detailed, they are typically designed to complement the splashback's aesthetic, often in finishes like brass.

Is this splashback suitable for areas other than bathrooms?

While designed for bathrooms to protect against steam and splashes, its protective qualities and aesthetic appeal could make it suitable for kitchen splashback areas, provided it's installed away from direct high heat sources.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The splashback comes with a 5-Year Guarantee.

Does the splashback come with detailed installation instructions?

Yes, full installation instructions are included with the splashback.

Troubleshooting

Splashback is loose after installation.

Check that all screws are tightened securely. If the wall fixings feel loose, they may need to be replaced with more robust anchors suitable for your wall type.

Visible water spots or streaks after cleaning.

Ensure you are using a soft, lint-free cloth for drying. After washing with soapy water, rinse thoroughly with clean water and then dry immediately to prevent spots from forming.

Difficulty aligning pre-drilled holes during installation.

Double-check your wall markings for accuracy. Ensure the splashback is held straight against the wall before marking or drilling. Slight adjustments to wall anchors might be needed.

Scratch marks appear on the glass.

Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials or tools. Clean gently with mild soap and water. Minor surface scratches may be difficult to remove completely.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent wall protection against water and steam.
  • Adds a modern, sophisticated aesthetic with its fluted texture.
  • Easy to clean and maintain, especially compared to tiled surfaces.
  • Quick and simple installation process, suitable for DIY.
  • Helps to brighten and enlarge the perceived space in a bathroom.
  • High-quality, handmade construction with a 5-year guarantee.

Cons

  • The ridged texture may require a slightly more thorough cleaning than a completely flat surface.
  • Clear glass shows the wall behind, so the underlying wall finish needs to be aesthetically pleasing.
  • Requires careful handling during installation to avoid chips or scratches.
  • Finishing caps, while matching accessories, are an additional element to consider for perfect coordination.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Preparation: Ensure the wall area where the splashback will be installed is clean, dry, and free from any loose debris. Check that the wall is also level.
  2. Marking: Using the splashback as a template or by measuring, mark the positions for the fixing holes on the wall. The splashback comes pre-drilled, so align it carefully.
  3. Drilling: Drill holes at the marked locations, using appropriate wall plugs for your wall type (plugs may or may not be included, check packaging).
  4. Mounting: Position the splashback against the wall, aligning the pre-drilled holes. Insert the provided screws through the splashback and into the wall plugs.
  5. Finishing: Attach the decorative caps over the screw heads for a neat finish. Ensure the splashback is securely fastened.

Compatibility:

This splashback is designed for use with standard vanity units and bathroom sinks. It is suitable for installation over painted, wallpapered, or panelled walls. Ensure the wall surface is solid and capable of supporting the weight of the glass.

Care:

Clean the splashback regularly with a soft, damp cloth and warm, soapy water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or damage the glass surface and any decorative caps. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth to prevent water spots.
