The greatest advantage of peel and stick tile backsplash is that it is exceptionally easy to place on a wall in comparison to any other tiling. Ceramic tiles or glass tiles as well as some other contemporary kitchen backsplash options will require a certain amount of skill and knowledge as well as some additional materials – tile adhesive, grout, and let’s not forget that you will need some tools as well. Not many of us keep the tools for installing a backsplash in the garden shed.
With self-adhesive tiles, you save time and money, because once they are stuck on the wall, your job is done! The installation takes as much as cutting, peeling and sticking and there will be no mess at all. At thesmarttiles.com “Peel and stick” tile backsplash kits feature a wide variety of colors, styles and designs which are suitable for any interior – modern glass tiles, faux tin tiles, copper tiles, etc.
Cons of peel and stick tile backsplash
One of the disadvantages of peel and stick tile backsplash, especially for DIY penny backsplash projects is that they do require a preliminary wall preparation. If the surface of the walls is not smooth, the adhesive will not stick properly and the final result would be far from what you expected. Make sure you filled any cracks or holes on the walls and the wall is completely dry before applying the tiles.
