Backsplashes · Fabricated in our Bridgeport shop

Full-height slab backsplashes.

A full-height backsplash turns the wall behind your counter into one sheet of stone: no grout lines, and veining that runs from the counter up to the cabinets or ceiling. CMG Stone cuts the backsplash and the counter from the same slabs in our Bridgeport shop and installs both with our own crew.

01 / The job

Planned at the slab, not on the wall

A full-height backsplash roughly doubles the stone on a wall run, and the wall panel and the counter below should come from neighbouring positions on the same slab so the veining reads as one surface. That gets decided at the yard, where we lay your template over a photograph of the slab.

Outlets, switches and window returns are placed during layout, so the cutouts land clear of the strongest veining wherever possible.

04 / The process

How it works

Talk to your electrician early; the cutouts are made in our shop, not on the wall.

01

Choose the slabs

A full-height backsplash roughly doubles the stone on that wall, so we check the slab count with you.

02

Settle the outlets

Your electrician confirms outlet and switch locations before templating.

03

Template together

We template the counters and the wall at the same time once the cabinets are set.

04

Cut and install

Counter and wall panels come from neighbouring parts of the slab. Template to install is typically one to two weeks.

Start with the slab

See full slabs, not sample chips. Bring your cabinet plan or rough dimensions and a few photos of the room, and we'll show you stone that suits the space.

05 / Questions

Full-height backsplash questions

Joints on the wall are easiest to hide at corners, windows or the range hood.

Is a full-height backsplash one piece?

Usually one or a few pieces per wall, depending on the size of the wall and the slab. Any joints are planned at natural breaks such as corners, windows or the range hood.

Do I need more slab for a full-height backsplash?

Yes, roughly twice the stone on that wall. We work out the layout with you at the yard before you commit.

Can outlets go in a stone backsplash?

Yes. Outlet and switch cutouts are cut in the shop to your electrician's layout.
