Kitchen Backsplash Installation in Staten Island, NY

About Durabilt GC: Kitchen Backsplash Installation Experts in Staten Island, NY

You’ll notice a crooked line or uneven grout joint every day in your kitchen, long after the installer has left. Quality kitchen wall tile fitting should look clean and balanced from one end to the other. It takes patience and a steady hand, not just picking a tile you like. That’s exactly the kind of care Durabilt GC has brought to Staten Island kitchens since 1995.

That kind of trust comes from real credentials, too: we’re a licensed and insured general contractor, so every installation complies with codes. Before any work begins, our team checks your walls and existing tile to plan the job right, whether that’s a fresh installation, a full removal and replacement, or part of a larger kitchen remodel.

About Us

Our Kitchen Backsplash Installation Services

Every kitchen is different, so backsplash installation should never be one-size-fits-all. The right approach depends on your backsplash material, kitchen layout, wall condition, and whether an old backsplash needs to be removed first. Here’s what we handle:

Tile Backsplash Installation

We install ceramic, subway tile, and glass backsplash options, all cut and set with clean, even lines. Complex layouts like herringbone or chevron need extra time and careful planning to get right. That’s exactly why we build the extra time into every quote upfront, so there are no surprises later.

Natural Stone & Slab Backsplash

We install natural stone and slab backsplashes, like marble, granite, or quartzite, for a look that’s harder to match with tile alone. Large-format slabs need accurate measurements, precise cuts, and careful handling during installation because a mistake with an expensive material is costly to fix.

Backsplash Removal & Replacement

If your current backsplash is cracked, outdated, or no longer works with your kitchen, then you can call us for help. We can remove it and take care of the cleanup. Once the old backsplash is off, we inspect the wall for any damage or problem areas before installing the new one. That way, needed repairs are handled first instead of being hidden behind the new backsplash.

Tim wass very easy to communicate with… however his estimate is on the higher side compared to other contractors on Staten Island for a bathroom remodel. He claims to be fair in pricing but I was afraid he would nit pick on things throughout the remodel that would add more cost to an already expensive pricing structure of his.

My wife and I are so incredibly happy with the two bathrooms we had remodeled by Tim and the Durabilt Team! Tim is the best, he is so kind and friendly and helps you with every aspect of the project. Tim's prices are very reasonable compared to the competition, and the quality of his teams work is top notch. My neighbors were so impressed with his work that they are also signing up for him to remodel their bathrooms. Thanks Tim, looking forward to having you remodel our kitchen in the near future!

Amazing work. Tim and his company finished the bathroom so fast and it came out beautiful. I would recommend him 10/10 especially that he ensured that everything is ADA specifications for the elderly. Also, my parents' bathroom looks better than mine now. lol. Will be going back to him for future projects

Tim and his team did an amazing job remodeling my basement and bathroom. They worked professionally, fast, and took care of all imperfections. If anything didn't look right, they quickly fixed it. They did not cut any corners and did top notch work. They got the job done in one week and the basement and bathroom could not look better. Tim also made sure that his team wouldn't leave the job site/finish the job unless we were 100% satisfied with his work. He is an outstanding contractor, very personable, highly professional, and offers an excellent service. I would highly recommend over all other contractors on the island. His prices were far better then other contractors on the island and he was more personable as well. Just an all around nice guy...a very rare thing to find these days; especially with contracts.

FIVE STARS ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tim of Durabilt and his team did an excellent job renovating our kitchen.

Tim and his brother came to repair some holes created under my cabinets after a leak. They were able to reposition my exterior door/storm door and replaced the weather stripping which effectively saved me from having to purchase 2 new doors. They came on time, were extremely knowledgeable, worked efficiently and did not leave behind any mess. Communication regarding the jobs was clear and it was truly a pleasure working with them. A few weeks later Tim’s son came to replace my circuit breaker and it was great working with him as well. I would highly recommend them for any of your home projects/renovations!!

Really happy with the work Tim did for me. The pricing was upfront and honest from day one, no BS, which I really appreciated — no surprises along the way. They showed upon time, which is rare these days! Highly recommended to those who valued their time and money.

Frequently Asked Questions

Kitchen backsplash service typically costs $500 to $2,000, depending on the material and how much wall space you’re covering. The best way to get an accurate price is with an on-site estimate and a written quote.

Ceramic and subway tile are popular for their affordability and easy maintenance. While natural stone and glass offer a more premium look at a higher price. The right material depends on your budget, style, and how much maintenance you want to deal with.

You can, especially if you have some experience with home improvement projects. But getting straight lines, even spacing, clean cuts, and smooth grout takes patience and skill. A poorly installed backsplash can crack, discolor, or come loose over time.

Most backsplash installations take one to two days. The timeline can be longer depending on the size of the area and whether an old backsplash needs to be removed first.

Subway tile remains a timeless choice, while patterned layouts like herringbone and chevron have become popular for a more custom look. Natural stone and larger format slabs are also trending for homeowners who want a seamless, low-grout appearance.
