Glass backsplash installation in Dubai: kitchen splashback glass

Oil and steam damage bare kitchen walls fast. In Dubai, open kitchens in flats and villas see heavy daily cooking. A glass backsplash shields the wall and wipes clean in seconds. WhatsApp is open 24/7 for a photo of the wall behind your hob, and an estimate comes first.

WhatsApp us your kitchen wall or call 056 828 4120. Include the sockets. Lines stay open 24/7.

What a glass backsplash is

A glass backsplash is one sheet of glass fixed to the wall behind the hob and worktop. It takes the place of tiles. With no grout lines, oil and steam wipe off easily.

Splashback glass is toughened, so it handles heat near a hob. The maker cuts holes for sockets, switches and pipes before toughening. Nothing can be drilled afterwards.

The colour is usually painted on the back of the glass. The front stays smooth and does not fade. You can pick a plain colour, a pattern or a printed image.

This page is about new kitchen glass. For other glass fixed to walls, see mirror mounting. If a panel has cracked, read tempered glass replacement.

Splashback styles for Dubai kitchens

  • Plain painted glass: one solid colour on the back of the glass. Simple and easy to match.
  • Clear glass over paint or tile: clear glass fixed over a painted wall or existing tile.
  • Printed or patterned glass: a pattern or image printed behind the glass.
  • Frosted glass: a soft, matte look that hides light marks.
  • Mirror-finish glass: reflects light and makes small kitchens feel bigger.

What to plan before fitting kitchen glass in Dubai

Steam and oil build up fast in a busy kitchen. Glass is easy to wipe, but the edges need a clean seal. Use a mild cleaner and a soft cloth.

Heat sits close to the hob. Use toughened glass and follow the hob maker’s guidance on distance. Mention your hob type when you send a photo.

Walls in older flats are not always flat. The glass is made to the real size, so a careful measure counts for more than the plan.

Frequently asked questions

We did not find a trusted published Dubai range for this service. Price depends on wall size, glass type and cut-outs. Send a photo and the wall size on WhatsApp, and you get an estimate before any work starts.

Yes, 24/7. The line never closes, so a photo of your kitchen wall can go in after cooking. You then get next steps and an estimate before work starts. Add the wall size if you have it.

Glass is made to your wall, so the wait is longer than for a stock tile. A fixed time cannot be given before the wall size and cut-outs are known. Send a photo and the wall size, and we can say more.

Toughened glass is made to handle heat near a hob. Keep to the hob maker’s guidance on distance. Ask about your layout when you send a photo, and we explain the options before any work starts.

Often yes, if the tiles are flat and firmly fixed. Uneven or loose tiles can cause gaps behind the glass. Send a close photo of the tiles and a wide photo of the wall, and we explain what is possible.

Send the width and height of the area, plus socket, switch and pipe positions. Photos help a lot. The glass is made to those numbers, so check them twice before you send them.

Wipe it with a soft cloth and mild cleaner. Do not use harsh acids or scouring pads. Wipe oil splashes soon after cooking so they do not bake onto the glass.

Plain colours, patterns and printed images are all possible. The colour sits on the back of the glass, so it does not wear off at the front. Send a sample photo of your idea.

Yes. Holes for sockets and switches are cut before the glass is made. Mark their positions on a photo or send a close picture. The glass cannot be drilled afterwards.
