Calgary Kitchen Backsplash Installation | High End Construction

Did You Know High End Construction Works Inside Too?

When people hear “High End Construction,” they usually think exterior work. Stucco. Siding. Big outdoor upgrades.

But here’s the truth: we do interior projects too — and sometimes the fastest way to make a kitchen feel brand new is something simple: a clean, modern backsplash.

This Calgary kitchen got a fresh white subway-tile backsplash that instantly sharpened the whole space — especially with the dark cabinets and stainless hood. Small upgrade, big payoff.

Before → After: What Changed

Before, the wall behind the range was plain drywall with the hood vent opening and electrical ready to go. After, it’s a bright, easy-to-clean surface that ties the counters, cabinets, and appliances together.

Why a Backsplash Is One of the Best Interior Upgrades

1) It’s practical (not just “pretty”)

Cooking splatter, steam, sauces — tile is way easier to wipe down than painted drywall.

2) It makes the whole kitchen look higher-end

A backsplash creates a “finished” look that makes cabinets and countertops feel more premium.

3) It’s often cheaper than people expect

Compared to full kitchen renovations, a backsplash gives you a big visual upgrade without tearing the place apart. Cost depends on tile choice, cuts, wall condition, and layout — but it’s usually one of the best ROI interior improvements.


How We Installed This Subway-Tile Backsplash (Clean + Straight Lines)

Here’s the process we follow to keep it tight and professional:

  1. Protect counters + appliances (no mess, no scratches)

  2. Wall prep (flat surface = flat tile)

  3. Layout + centering (so cuts don’t look awkward near cabinets/hood)

  4. Precise cuts around outlets and the hood area

  5. Tile install with spacers for consistent lines

  6. Grout + cleanup (no haze left behind)

  7. Finish edges + caulking where needed for a clean, sealed look

The Finished Look (This Is the Part Everyone Feels Immediately)

That glossy white tile bounces light around the kitchen and makes the space feel brighter and sharper — without changing cabinets or counters.
