Kitchen Cleaning Advice - How Glass Splashbacks Can Help

There are relatively few people in the world who can honestly say that cleaning their kitchen is one of their favourite tasks

. But there is good news, because something as simple as glass splashbacks could significantly improve this unenviable task.

Obviously because of the fact that our kitchens are used for the preparation of food for our families it is always important to make sure that it is not just visually clean, but hygienically clean. Spraying an antibacterial solution across the worktop then giving it a good scrub is certainly adequate for keeping that surface hygienic. But one of the problems is how to ensure that tiles or splash backs are also hygienically clean.

Whilst it is true that we don't often tend to lay our sandwiches on the tiles running up the wall, food can very easily end up being splashed onto this surface. Clearly that is why they are called splashbacks! Whether it is a pan sitting on the cooker bubbling away, stray fragments of food mixtures thrown up whilst using an electric mixer, or even just tiny fragments or droplets of food that seem to defy gravity, leaping from spoons and lids as these are shaken, tapped or removed, food can easily find its way up the wall.

The problem with having tiles as a splashback to protect your kitchen wall is that you have the grout between each tile which offers a very poor surface when it comes to cleaning, and a very good surface for providing a wealth of hiding places for mould, bacteria, spores and germs.

It is also often the case that many kitchen tiles have a patterned surface, or a textured surface, and this can also make it very difficult to clean tiles adequately. Combining the problem of the grout with the problem of textured or patterned tiles and reaching across your work surface to try to clean a vertical splashback effectively makes this become an arduous task that is easy to put off.

However, glass splashbacks help to solve to these problems, whilst also offering a third very striking advantage. First of all, glass splashbacks provide a completely smooth surface, with no textures or raised patterns which make it difficult to clean. Most glass splash backs are also manufactured in single sections, which means that there is no grouting involved, and no joins or seams.

But of course one of the most striking benefits of glass worktops and splashbacks is their appearance. The glass may be coloured or plain, frosted or clear, and even backlit with LEDs if desired, and this creates a truly beautiful visual appearance which helps to reflect light throughout the kitchen, imbuing it with colour. All of which means, of course, that people can enjoy admiring your extraordinarily clean kitchen easier than ever!
