A fresh backsplash transforms a Burbank kitchen for a fraction of a full remodel, and the quality of the install decides whether it looks custom or careless. We install subway, mosaic, large-format, and full-height backsplashes, getting the layout and the cuts right before the first tile is buttered. Many Burbank kitchens have a bare or dated backsplash, and adding a fresh one is one of the most requested, highest-impact updates we do. We never tile over a bad wall to save time, because that is exactly what causes lippage and crooked lines — the prep is done right or we do not start. Call 626-481-6561 and we will help you choose tile and lay out the wall right.

What a Quality Remodel Gets You
The wall behind the counter has to be flat and sound before any tile goes up. Older Burbank kitchens often have walls that wave or are damaged from the old backsplash, and tiling over that telegraphs every imperfection through the finished surface. We flatten and prep the wall first, because a backsplash set on a bad substrate looks uneven no matter how good the tile is — and prep is the step a rushed crew skips to save an hour.
Remodeling a kitchen changes a Burbank home in two ways: it upgrades the space you live in and it strengthens the property itself. Both depend on quality. A remodel built on careful prep and precise installation keeps performing and keeps its value for years. One built on shortcuts looks fine for a season and then starts failing in the doors that sag and the seams that open. The investment is real — but only when the work behind the finishes is done right.
Our Approach, Step by Step
Grout and sealing decide how a backsplash ages in a working kitchen. The right grout color changes the whole look — a contrasting line emphasizes the pattern, a matching one lets the field read as a continuous surface — and the right grout type, properly sealed, resists the grease and splatter a Burbank kitchen throws at it. We help homeowners choose grout that stays looking clean, because the prettiest tile fails the eye test once the grout goes gray and greasy behind the stove.
A backsplash is a small area where precision is fully exposed, which is why the layout is everything. A skilled installer dry-lays the pattern to balance the cuts, center the field behind the range, and avoid the slivers and awkward seams that mark an amateur job. Because the backsplash sits right between the counter and the cabinets at eye level, every crooked line shows. We plan the layout on each Burbank job so the full tiles land where they matter and the cuts hide where they should.
Burbank Housing and Your Kitchen
Our work runs through Burbank and the neighboring communities, where many kitchens are overdue for a real update. The homes here were often laid out before anyone thought about open, social, eat-in kitchens, so a lot of what we do is rethinking the space, not just refreshing it. Knowing the local housing stock lets us see the opportunities — and the constraints — before we ever pick up a tool.
Where Good Design Earns Its Keep
A kitchen remodel is a chance to fix everything that annoyed you about the old room, and good design starts by listing those annoyances. Too little counter, not enough storage, a closed-off layout, poor light — naming them is how a Burbank remodel becomes genuinely better rather than just newer. We design around your actual frustrations and the way you really cook, so the result earns its keep every day.
Plenty of Burbank homeowners have a remodeling horror story — the contractor who vanished, the "small change" that doubled the bill, the job left half-finished. We run Culinarycraft Kitchen Remodel on the opposite principle. The estimate is detailed and in writing, changes are discussed and approved before we act on them, and the same crew that starts your kitchen is the one that finishes it. No surprises is not a slogan here; it is how we work.
One call, every part of the remodel
A kitchen is one project, so backsplash installation rarely stands alone — it connects to kitchen remodel, cabinetry, countertop installation, kitchen island, flooring installation, and our crew handles all of it under one roof.
