Frequently Asked Questions
Are Glass Splashbacks safe behind a hob?
If you’re looking for a cheaper alternative our new CreoMax Product Range would make a great option for you. It’s easy to cut, and the lead time is shorter. However, because the CreoMax Acrylic is not heatproof, to make them safe to use behind your hob we can provide a transparent toughened glass panel to place on top of your CreoMax, fixed on with screws.
Should I choose Glass or Acrylic splashbacks?
Will you be placing it in an area which will be exposed to high levels of heat, such as behind your hob?
If yes, we would definitely recommend our CreoGlass Glass Splashbacks, designed and created in Watford. They are heat resistant up to 400°C, so are perfectly safe to use in areas exposed to high temperatures.
Do you need the product ASAP?
The preparation and lead times are much shorter for Acrylic Splashbacks compared to Glass Splashbacks, so if your deadline is close, acrylic might be the better option for you. Our Sales Team will be able to discuss with you the lead times for both options. Contact Us
Are you looking for the flexibility of a DIY project?
Our CreoMax Acrylic material is sold in sheets that are easy to cut and customise yourself but cutting, sawing, shearing, punching, drilling, nailing, riveting or screwing. Making them perfect for any DIY project. However, if you’d like us to do all the work for you, our Glass Splashbacks will be measured, cut, designed and fitted especially for you.
Have you ordered a sample?
To help you make the best decision, we recommend ordering a sample to see for yourself which material you like the best in the setting you intend you use it. We offer a wide range of printed and coloured glass, as well as our brand new CreoMax Acrylic sheets, available in stunning ultra-high resolution precious stone images.

Should I choose Glass Splashbacks or Tiles?
HygieneOur Glass Splashbacks have a non-pours surface with minimal to no join lines, making them super easy and effective to wipe clean of any dangerous bacteria. Tiles have many grout join lines, causing dirt and bacterial build-up, making them hard to clean and unsafe. Over time the grout can become unsightly and stained after the bacteria and dirt gets trapped in its porous surface. This means that even if the cost of a glass splashback is initially higher than tiles, our Glass Splashbacks will last longer, be safer and keep cleaning costs low.
MaintenanceThe maintenance of the glass splashbacks is much cheaper compared to the very expensive tile cleaning and grout cleaning products. The Creoglass Splashback glass is an ultramodern antibacterial surface which only needs very simple and time-effective cleaning products. No more soaking grout in an attempt to improve its appearance. Because of this, Glass Splashback are amazing in bathrooms too, ensuring no limescale or mould build-up with just a simple wipe clean.
Cost
Some high-quality tiles can cost up to £50 per 0.25 sqm, making them roughly £200 per square metre. The cost per square meter for printed or coloured Glass Splashbacks is similar. However, as Toughened Glass need to be shaped and produced with cut-outs prior to the toughening process, the overall price is more than the tiles, but the overall quality, design and longevity of glass can be much higher. Based on our designer's and client's reviews, overall glass splashbacks are much easier to maintain, and the overall cost of tiles can be more than glass splashbacks.
DesignGlass Splashbacks come into their own against tiles when it comes to the design possibilities. Glass splashbacks can be customised in endless unique and eye-catching designs. The designs flow seamlessly with a clean and smooth finish, not to be interrupted with minimal to no join lines. A huge downside of tiles is the grid effect of the grout join lines which can’t be escaped, ruining any design effect. Our Glass Splashbacks are available in plain coloured, printed, glittery, textured, mirrored and stencilled designs, and we’ve created over 500 design ideas within these.
How much are Glass Splashbacks?
The factors that will affect the overall price of your splashback include:
Size
The price of a Glass Splashback is calculated per surface area (sqm). Price per square meter will vary depending on how many individual layers are required to achieve the desired finish and how many labour hours are needed.
Layers
Different designs will require more layers and, therefore greater labour hours than other designs. Our basic entry-level splashbacks require a minimum two layers per each panel
Colour Coating
Extra layers can be added to create different effects, for example, sparkle, which would increase the splashback to 3 layers. Some of our CreoGlass bespoke designs may consist of up to 15 individual layers and are created using various materials (e.g. print, glitter, mirror, 24-carat gold, natural mineral flakes etc.) and techniques (e.g. our hand-made stencilling, liquid mirror and cobweb techniques). These splashbacks are classified as “Commissioned Bespoke Designs” and require prototyping.
Materials
We use a wide range of high-quality materials to produce our splashbacks all with different costs attached. For example, our mirrored splashbacks take a great amount of care and time to achieve flawless mirrored surfaces. Our Premium Collection uses crushed mineral flakes to achieve its luxurious finish.
Shaping
Next, you also need to budget for the cost of shaping the glass. Any notches, socket openings, holes for screws or curvatures other than square or rectangular are all extras as they are labour-intensive and are charged at standard rates.
Measuring and Fitting
Another extra cost you should budget for is the cost of measuring and fitting services as these are optional. However, we will guarantee you professional installation backed up with up to 10 years warranty on a fitted product by CreoGlass.
Average Costs:
An average “L” shape kitchen fully fitted with entry-level glass splashbacks could start from around £800-£1800. The standard prices are based on 6mm toughened glass, but you can decide to go for a different thickness of glass if you desire.
Splashbacks with more layers require a longer design stage to ensure all artworks, colours and, custom shades, special add-ons like glittery effects are agreed upon. These splashbacks may cost between £2500-£7000.
To reduce the cost, you can:
1. Reduce complicated shaping
2. Reduce the design level (e.g remove extra layers such as glitter or mirror stripes)
3. Reduce the sqm size
4. Look out for offers and discounts on our Instagram and Facebook social media pages
