Should Wall Tile Be As High As The Sinl

I did marble tile to 48 in powder room.

Should wall tile be as high as the sinl.

If you have a feature wall with a window and bespoke joinery and you are using a feature tile you may feel that you need to find a suitable cut off point. Take wall hangings and mirrors into consideration. My cabinets are the tall 45 cabinets. I am planning on taking the subway tile backsplash up to the ceiling above the window by the kitchen sink which is an 8 ft wall that meets the slant.

The main wall of my kitchen is 11 5 ft tall. A classic offset or straight set pattern in a standard field size tile works best for this wall height. The classic design feature is usually between 34 and 54 high with 36 being the average height. For a truly classic look finish the top with a decorative trim or a bullnosed edge.

Besides i always prefer to transition materials on an inside corner wherever possible and this is the perfect place to do so. If your wainscot is tile then it can serve a dual purpose by working as the backsplash behind your sink. The wall of tile you re doing over the sink area will be a nice statement and has a more high end look. But only if it is high enough.

600mm high is usually a good rule of thumb and finishing at the low part of the cabinetry ensures that you maintain the height of the ceiling.
