White Subway Kitchen Backsplash in Midtown Sacramento
About This Project
This kitchen in a Midtown Sacramento Victorian flat received white 3x6 subway tile in a standard brick offset pattern. The layout was centered on the window above the sink, which is the natural focal point of this kitchen.
Two outlet boxes required precise tile cuts. We cut each outlet opening with a tile saw and rotary tool, leaving a gap tight enough that the outlet cover plate sits flush with no visible gap at the edges. Oversized outlet cuts are a common shortcut we do not take.
The black matte faucet was installed by the plumber after tile completion. We left the faucet penetration area open during tiling and returned to caulk the perimeter after the faucet was set.
