If the backsplash is being installed on a floor cabinet the first course of tiles can be supported directly at the floor and additional courses will rest on top of that first course using tile spacers.
Tile backsplash end of cabinet. Usually a piece of bullnose or pencil tile is used at the point where the tile ends and the untiled wall begins. However for upper cabinets this is not an option. Some people chose to end their backsplash tile at the base of their upper cabinets or just a an inch or two above it. My counter reaches the door frame of our sliding back door.
This is so unfinished looking that it really warrants a do over. Especially if you don t have the room for a picture or shelf. I recently tiled my backsplash and ran into the same problem not knowing which way to end the tile. Else it will look like a square of tile floating on the wall.
The second reason helps find the answer to the question of ending kitchen backsplash tiles that hang in midspace on the side of the kitchen counter. Contrast is another basic principle of design in architecture. Honestly for this i think it s best to redo the upper cabinet. Yet another option is to line the backsplash up with the base cabinets then run the backsplash all the way up to the ceiling.
I ended up choosing to end it with the cabinets when i held the tiles up each way i thought it looked a little silly going out to the end of the countertop. I leaned my backsplash up against the wall both ways and i prefer to end it at the cabinet. It depends on the color of the backsplash tile if the backsplash will look obtrusive sticking out into wallspace then i prefer it to end with the cabinet. But if you have tile that is larger than 1 in.
Ending the backsplash with a shelf even a shallow one can give it a nice cap on walls where there are no other particular ending points such as a window or cabinet. You could also taper your tile or angle your stone backsplash to gradually connect the top to the bottom. If folks want to do that it s almost better aesthetically to go all the way up to the ceiling. It becomes an attractive accent wall especially if the tiles have colors that contrast the colors of the countertops and kitchen cabinets.
Depending on your tile choice a fairly inexpensive tile cutter and nipper combination will be enough to handle most of the straight cuts. There are two basic design principles to remember when deciding. I ve looked at pictures where backsplash ended at the counter and at the cabinet. You could stop the backsplash where the upper cabinets end but we usually recommend lining up with the base cabinets.
To me i like the look of it ending at the cabinet. Another option is to end the tile lower down.
