Premier Backsplash Installation in Downers Grove / Bolingbrook

From Top Industry Professionals in Downers Grove / Bolingbrook

A backsplash in a kitchen or bathroom is a simple home renovation that can dramatically change the overall look of the room and add value to the home. This simple addition is an easy, cost effective solution to updating a kitchen or bathroom on a budget. Backsplashes are not only aesthetically pleasing but serve to protect walls from water damage, grease or food stains. The maintenance of a backsplash is simple and straightforward. The backsplash is more washable and durable than a simple wall with paint as the only protective surface. This means that any food that splashes onto the wall when cooking is easily wiped away. Anyone who has cleaned pasta sauce off of paint knows what a benefit this can be!

Backsplashes are commonly found in kitchens and bathrooms. Today we are seeing backsplash installation in Downers Grove / Bolingbrook in laundry rooms as well. Backsplashes are excellent choices for these rooms for two main reasons. They provide protection from water damage and create a durable and easy to clean surface in areas that are prone to splashes. Furthermore, backsplashes are being used more and more to create an impactful design statement. Backsplashes can draw the eye and tie a room together. There is a beautiful statement backsplash just right for each home, and Footprints Floors are here to make sure the end result is perfect.

Backsplash Options

As you begin your search for the right selection for your backsplash, you will find an endless list of possibilities. Our craftsmen at Footprints Floors are prepared to help with the backsplash installation of your material of choice.

Glass Tile


Like marble, glass tiles can be a more affordable option to make a space feel larger and brighter by bouncing light throughout a room. Glass tiles have a very pleasing way of also accenting the colors beneath the glass, giving off an often captivating look and feel. Glass tiles are low maintenance, easy to clean and very durable.

Ceramic Tile


Ceramic tiles are by far our most popular request for backsplash and wall tile installations. Ceramic tiles are extremely durable, scratch resistant, low maintenance, and are super easy to keep clean. With some of the most diverse designs available, homeowners really can’t go wrong with ceramic tiles as their wall accent of choice.

Stone


To create a warm and comforting look and feel, homeowners might choose to accent their spaces with stone wall tiles for backsplashes. Stone is incredibly durable, heat resistant and conveys a truly timeless impression.

Mirror Tile


While this wall accent is more rare, mirror tiles are a great choice for someone wanting to visually expand their space. Mirrors create a natural optical illusion that the space is much larger than it actually is. This comes in handy for rooms with low ceilings and in spaces that are more narrow.

Marble


For a more elegant touch, homeowners might consider installing marble for their wall accents. Marble has a natural polished glimmer that reflects light; making rooms seem more spacious. Yet for such an upscale material, marble is also durable and easy to care for.

Shiplap


This chic and modern wall accent serves as an alternative to a more traditional backsplash or wall tile. Shiplap is typically an inexpensive wall covering solution that is sure to bring a lot of texture and depth to any space.

How Much Does Backsplash Installation Cost?


A tile backsplash can dramatically transform the atmosphere of your kitchen or bathroom. Not only does it protect your walls from everyday splatters and spills, but it’s also an easy way to create a unique design for your kitchen or bathroom that fits your style. If you are considering investing in a tile backsplash, you may wonder how much you’ll need to budget to complete the space of your dreams.

Backsplash installation costs vary based on multiple factors. First, the price of the tile itself will vary based on the size and material of the tile. The type of tile you choose will factor into the installation cost, which will also include the size of the space and the complexity of the design you choose. Your final cost will add on the price of any necessary additional materials, such as mortar and grout, and factors such as labor and hazard potentials. Footprints Floors is an affordable option for installation because we don’t require you to purchase your tile from a limited selection. We offer expert results at a reasonable price, saving you money, time, and stress while delivering high–quality and long–lasting results. Contact us today to get a free estimate on your project!

Can I Install Backsplash Myself?

Tile backsplashes are a popular home remodel for homeowners looking to update their space. It’s an easy way to add value to your home while refreshing the style and function of any kitchen bathroom. But don’t be fooled into thinking backsplash installation is an easy project done on your own. While a DIY installation with peel–and–stick backsplash tiles may seem like an affordable and easy option at first, it won’t be as durable or long–lasting as a tile backsplash installed by a professional. To ensure that your results are high–quality and long–lasting, it’s best to leave the project to someone with experience installing a backsplash.

If you are interested in updating your kitchen or bathroom with a backsplash, hire a professional to take on the job. A professional has the training, knowledge, and tools to navigate installation projects of all shapes and sizes. Though DIY may seem simpler and cheaper, it can cost you more money and time in the long run if done incorrectly. Hiring a professional gives you the peace of mind that your new backsplash will look pristine in your space for years to come.

At Footprints Floors, our master contractors have experience installing all types of wall tile and backsplash. We pay attention to every detail for a result that will stand the test of time. Contact us today to get started!

What Our Customers Say

Chuck and team listened to our vision to update what was a very uneven and thin-- 3" concrete slab floor in our basement. Its a nearly 100yo converted root cellar. He gave us options and contingency plans-- all things were considered! He wasn't quite familiar with the finished look we requested, but he did a lot of research and pulled it off! The install team was great. We love the result.
Hanna Auza 04/27/24 — google
I cannot say enough about Chuck and staff. We have had a-lot of contractors do work for us over the years and i have to say that footprints have by far exceeded all our expectations. They did an amazing job on our wood floor refinishing and really stand behind their work! Chuck is very professional and courteous unlike most contractors we have dealt with in the past. You can hire them without concern. They truly are worth it!
carmen Lollino 04/27/24 — google
We recently had the pleasure of working with Chuck and Kyle from Footprint Flooring of the Western suburbs. They were professional, fast, and their work was of high quality. Chuck came by to look at our floors and spent a good amount of time explaining everything in detail that was needed to repair our floors and made sure all of our questions were answered. I was so pleased with the outcome of our flooring. We had our LVP floor repaired and it truly looks amazing. I would highly recommend Footprint Flooring to anyone looking to install or repair their floors. I called around to other flooring companies and I am so glad we chose FootPrints. I got the best vibe from them and now I know why. I can honestly say we are so happy and satisfied with our floors and would use them again.
Caterina DeBenny 04/27/24 — google
Chuck and his team were very friendly and thorough. Spent a lot of time answering my questions and explaining things for my peace of mind. The job was done right the first time! Pricing was comparable to other companies in the area, didn’t have to pay more for top-quality work. Thanks, Chuck!

I would highly recommend Footprints if you are looking for flooring work. In our instance we had frozen water pipes that burst and damaged a 4x5 swath of our hardwood flooring. Footprints came out promptly to evaluate the damage and proposed it’s solution. We actually thought we would have to replace a lot more of the floor area than we ended up replacing. Footprints was able to lace the new wood into the existing hardwood and when the work was finished, I could not tell any difference. They matched it perfectly. Footprints was extremely competent, polite and neat. I also found their rate to be very reasonable especially given the high quality of the work. I found the owner of the company dusting in our powder room with a duster after the work was complete! I highly recommend Footprints Flooring.

Chuck is an outstanding business man very polite and charged a fair price. Kyle did an outstanding job on my bathroom floor and I would definitely hire these guys again!!!
Diane Boyd 04/21/23 — google
Footprints floors did an excellent job restoring my hardwood floors. The floors were in exceptionally bad condition prior to their restoration. They restored my hardwood floors to an almost new state. The hardwood floors are now absolutely gorgeous! I cannot recommend them highly enough for all work they did at a fair price. Thank you!
Ms. M Wms 03/22/23 — google
Very personable and thoughtful. Crew cleaned up after themselves at the end of each day. Chuck new what he was doing. Delivered on all of his promises. Exceeded our expectations.
Karen Schmiege 03/16/23 — google
Chuck was a pleasure to work with. Very reasonably priced and started work right away. Gave recommendations based on our wants and did not try to upsell us on unnecessary work. Will definitely be using them again to refinish our hardwood in the future.
Andy Blechschmidt 02/21/23 — google
Chuck and his team were great to work with! I always felt like I was in good hands, which doesn't happen often. Chuck discussed different options for flooring and he even steered me away from some options that would not have been cost effective for me. In a day where making a buck by any means necessary is the norm, I found this rare and totally refreshing! I would definitely use Footprints Floors again.
L Marie 11/21/22 — google
Chuck and his team were phenomenal! We ripped out old carpet and had installed new vinyl plank flooring… The first night, we noticed a HUGE difference in our kids breathing overnight. Our kids had been coughing a lot when they were in their rooms. We weren’t sure if replacing the carpet would make a difference, but the change was immediate. Our whole family is feeling much better since the carpet was replaced with vinyl. Chuck went above & beyond, and we couldn’t be happier. We will definitely hire Footprints again in the future. Can’t recommend them highly enough!
Max Lyons 11/5/22 — google
Chuck did an amazing job in our house! His team refinished our hardwood. They also changed the kitchen tile to hardwood. He is expert in his work, very responsive, and on time. He cared about our house and even gave us a floor protection to use for other contractors. He went to 6 different stores to find the stain color we were looking for. His team was very nice as well. I would highly recommend him to anyone, who is looking for a floor contractor.
Kamelia afshin nia 09/3/22 — google
Chuck and his team refinished our hardwood. Chuck is very nice, knowledgeable and cares about the quality of his job. They were on time and delivered the project according to the initial schedule he provided us. The quality of the job was amazing and the communication was great. We did a few other projects in our house with other contractors, and Chuck was by far the best one. Alex (his crew lead) was a great and nice person and provided great suggestions during the project. Chuck went above and beyond to help us pick the right stain colors. I highly recommend him and will definitely work with him if I have any other projects in the future.
Ali Ghassemi 09/3/22 — google
FootPrints Floors provided excellent service from start to finish. I was well informed as what to expect with the total process. I’m extremely happy with my refinished floors. I would definitely recommend FootPrints Floors!
Kevin Knox 05/2/22 — google
I was very satisfied with the job. There was a small issue that I discovered after the job was completed and I reached out to Chuck who was very responsive and brought someone to caulk around my shower window the very next day. I would definitely recommend this company!
Christine Zidek 04/29/22 — google
Purchased luxury vinyl flooring online from Home Depot. Contracted with Footprints to do the installation. Chuck picked up the materials which was definitely a bonus. The job was pretty routine for a professional - just a small bedroom & the installer was done in just over 3 hours👏 It looks better than I imagined it would. Very happy!
Chris Marco 04/18/22 — google
Quality work and the price was reasonable. Chuck’s communication was also great. Would definitely hire them again!!
Bridget Alison L 04/17/22 — google
Play professional and well priced and friendly. They refinish 750 ft.² of our Wood Floor’s… Love it
Peggy Ventrelli 04/16/22 — google
Chuck and E did a great job. Very high quality work. I think the price may have been a bit higher than you could get elsewhere, but if you want it done right, this company is the way to go. I've heard enough contractor horror stories to say paying a little more up front can save you a big headache in the long run.
Jay Fry 04/8/22 — google
Very professional. Love the Footprints Floors guys.

Your Backsplash Installation in Downers Grove / Bolingbrook Today


These days DIY projects are very popular, and of course we understand why. It may sound fun to get our hands dirty, take on a new project, learn something new and be responsible for the end result. When it comes to wall tiles and backsplash installation, however, we recommend working with professionals.

When approaching wall tiles and backsplash installations, many first timers choose an affordable and easy stick and peel option. These are not ideal. Their lasting power is limited and although they seem approachable, they will not provide the same impact or protection that a true wall tile is designed to accomplish. If you truly want your wall tile or backsplash to be a statement piece you need the end result to be impeccable. The design, the lines, and all the edges need to align just right. At Footprints Floors our master craftsmen expertly install any wall tile and backsplash while paying attention to every detail for a stunning look that lasts.

If you are tempted to approach the project yourself because of concerns regarding the cost of installation, keep in mind that our prices and services are unmatched. We are an affordable option too. And let’s not forget the value of your time. With Footprints Floors you can save money, time and experience a stress free project.
