Why Homeowners Choose Subway Backsplash Tile:

• Versatile shape - A simple rectangular shape serves as a great base for a series of different design possibilities, especially in terms of layouts. A basketweave layout adds visual interest, a subway backsplash tile herringbone pattern creates a sense of movement, while a vertical stack gives the impression of a taller space.
• Timeless appearance - The subway shape is iconic in its simplicity, and it’s the reason why it’s consistently at the top of homeowners’ preferences - and has been, for decades. Thanks to its clean, no-frills appearance, it maintains its neutrality and timeless appeal year after year.
• Quality materials - Featuring materials like premium ceramic, glass, marble, or porcelain, your tilework is guaranteed to stay in fantastic shape, even after years of use, including in bathroom or kitchen subway tile backsplash areas or in heavy traffic environments.
• Low maintenance - Maintenance level is essential when picking tile for a splash-prone, potentially messy area like the kitchen or bathroom backsplash. A variety of easy to care for finishes are at your disposal - just wipe clean, and your kitchen subway backsplash tile is as good as new.

Subway Backsplash Tiles Ideas For Any Home

Zellige Subway Backsplash Tile For Handcrafted Charm

The kitchen is the heart of the home, and a Zellige tile backsplash can help create that warm, inviting style you want. The imperfect, handcrafted quality of the tile gives the space an organic, lived-in look. The irregular edges and uneven color add depth and dimension. Try our Sage Green 2.5 x 8 Glossy Ceramic Subway Tile to admire the effect in person.

Glossy Subway Backsplash Tile For Quick Maintenance

With a high-shine look that enriches any color, glossy subway backsplash tile is as beautiful as it is practical. The smooth surface is incredibly low-maintenance and quick to wipe clean, which is ideal for a splash-prone area such as the kitchen backsplash. It also has the added advantage of reflecting light, which makes the space seem bigger and brighter.

Ceramic Subway Backsplash Tile For Bold Design

Ceramic impresses through the sheer variety of colors, patterns, textures and finishes. The simple subway backsplash tile supports these eye-catching features beautifully - a match made in heaven. Or in your home! A classic running bond layout highlights the unique designs. Try this Teal Green 2.6 x 16 Glossy Ceramic Subway Tile for a bold color option.

Blue Subway Backsplash Tile For A Pop Of Color

Subway backsplash tiles and bold colors go together like peanut butter and jelly, and a bright blue backsplash is the perfect way to make a statement in the kitchen. Keep the rest of the space neutral to create a balanced look. Opt for a subway backsplash tile vertical stack layout to create a current style that highlights the bright color.

Matte Subway Backsplash Tile For An Elegant Appearance

With a soft surface and a velvety appearance, matte subway tile is a refined choice for a subway backsplash tile bathroom design that prioritizes a special color or layout. A modern look that delights through subtlety and the understated elegance of the minimalist shape. For an ultra contemporary look, we recommend our Black 2 x 8 Matte Ceramic Subway Tile arranged in a horizontal stack layout.

Subway Backsplash Tile Installation & Maintenance

• Use our online tile calculator to determine how much tile you need, based on your surface measurements.
• Pick the layout that suits the space the best - running bond, vertical stack, herringbone, and basketweave are just a few options. For even easier installation, consider subway backsplash tile peel and stick options.
• When it comes to picking a grout color, consider the effect you want to achieve. White is classic and inoffensive, and it creates a seamless look with white tile. Black or grey create contrast and sharpness.
• Maintain your tilework by cleaning with soapy water and a soft cloth. For marble options, sealing may be required.
