2. Why should I select a glass splashback as opposed to tiles?

  • No grout means no mould or mildew;
  • Glass splashbacks are easy to clean;
  • Heat resistant;
  • Colour choice and designs are endless;

3. What types of glass do you use? 

At Ultimate Glass Splashbacks, we use the following two types of glass:

  • Standard clear glass; and
  • Low iron glass.

All glass contains a certain amount of iron which appears green in colour. Low iron glass contains less iron than standard clear glass and is therefore less green in colour. Low iron glass provides a truer representation of your selected colour. Our team can advise you regarding the suitability of either glass type based on your selected colour choice.

4. Is the glass made to Australian Standards? 

Definitely. At Ultimate Glass Splashbacks, we use 6mm toughened safety glass for all our splashback panels.

5. At what stage should I schedule a measure and quote? 

All cabinetry and bench tops need to be installed prior to a measure being conducted. Additionally, all electrical work needs to be completed. If a glass splashback is being installed behind a range hood canopy, the range hood needs to have been pre-installed and the fixing points marked prior to our glazier attending to conduct the measure.

6. What surface do you need to apply the glass splashback onto?

We require a smooth surface with no protrusions. Glass splashback can be applied onto plasterboard or cement sheet. Glass splashbacks can also be applied on top of existing tiles. However, it will result in a very small loss of bench space and the edges of the tiles may be visible in some situations. 

7. What colours can I select from?

At Ultimate Glass Splashbacks, we offer a large range of solid and metallic colours for your selection, as well as various toughened mirror tints and our digitally printed glass range. 

8. Do I require a fire-resistant board behind my stove?

Due to changes in Victorian regulations, please contact our office on (03) 9026 1390 to discuss requirements for the installation of fire-resistant board behind gas cook tops.

9. How long will it take to install the glass splashback from the time an order is placed? 

Approximately 2 weeks.

10. How do I clean my glass splashback? 

The UGS glass cleaning bottles can be purchased directly from our consultants or speak with our team about our popular coating product available for coloured glass splashbacks.

11. Do you provide a warranty? 

At Ultimate Glass Splashbacks, we provide a 10 year warranty covering workmanship and colour delamination. You are not covered for breakage due to impact or any surface damage.

12. Is a deposit required and what payment methods do you accept? 

We require a 50% deposit prior to your order being placed. We accept cash, EFTPOS or direct deposit.
