Remodeling Your Kitchen: Suggestions When You'Ve Got A Tight Budget

Tin can give a classic, timeless look to your kitchen. With that kind of appearance, tin backsplashes are extremely simple to install, and they give you a great addition to your custom cherry cabinets, and they go nicely with both porcelain tiles, and granite countertops. And because no grouting is required, tin backsplashes are a pice of cake to clean. A quick wipe-down with damp cloth will take care of most cleaning.

Don't think you can Afford Tin?

If you're hoping to stretch your budget -- and who isn't -- you can achieve the same tin look with one of the many faux tin tile options available. These plastic alternatives are considerably cheaper than tin, but you can only tell by looking very closely. In fact, most people will probably need to touch them before they realize that your backsplash isn't actually tin.

Installation options

Tin backsplashes can be installed by hand with small brads which contribute to the rustic look, or, more commonly, with silicon. The plastic faux tin option is glued on. In both cases, careful measurement will produce the cleanest seams.

Where to Look for Tin Backsplashes

Many store, including both large and smaller hardware stores, carry both tin and faux tin, but the best selection and the best deals, as usual, are on the Internet. Take your time looking around, and you'll find plenty of choices, including plenty of patterns and finishes. You can find individual tiles, or rolls of material which make installation even easier, in standard 12" or 18" heights, which can make for very easy installation job.
