Question
Hi Kitchen backsplash Ideas expert !
I plan on installing a stained glass tile backsplash in my kitchen. The surface between my cabinets and countertop is painted drywall. I would like to put up something on top of the drywall to apply the tile to so if I or future owners of my house want to remove the backsplash they can do so without damaging the drywall. I'm hoping to use something very thin because there are areas of the backsplash that won't be under the cabinets so the top edge of the backing material will be visible. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ryan
Answer
Hi Ryan,
The Best thing to do in this case would be to cut out the dry wall altogether and replace it with Either a 1/2" thick sheets of concrete board or plywood to attach your back splash too.
My personal preference would be wonder board. You can find it all Lowe's
or Home Depot and it is not too expensive. In doing this you will create a solid backing for the tile and it will not show through and the tile can be removed at some future point with little or not damage to the wall.
I wish you well,
