Overview

Made to measure splashbacks

What started as an easy-to-clean alternative to tiles behind the sink and cooker has become the thing that finishes a kitchen. Our splashbacks are made from toughened safety glass, so they stand up to the knocks of everyday living and to the heat behind a hob.

We design, supply and install, wherever it's going and whatever it's for. What you get is a unique piece of glass that will outlast the kitchen around it — supplied, fitted and finished at a fair price.

What's included

  • Any colour, size or shape. Matched to effectively any RAL or Farrow & Ball reference, or to a sample you bring us.
  • Sockets and switches cut in. Cut-outs made before toughening, so the plate sits flush and the edges are polished.
  • Templated to your kitchen. Full template on site, because worktops and walls are never quite straight.
  • The complete service. Template, manufacture and fitting from one company — one quote, one invoice.

Functional and stylish splashbacks and safety glass

A splashback isn't just an alternative to tiles, it's a way to change the character of a kitchen. We apply a durable paint colour to the back of the glass for a lustrous, permanent finish that won't fade or discolour behind a hob.

For pale and true colours we recommend low-iron glass. Standard float glass has a green cast that shifts a white or pale grey noticeably; low-iron glass is optically near-neutral, so the colour you choose is the colour you get. We'll show you both before you decide.

Why choose Fast Glass

We've worked with around 500 architects and designers over 20 years, bringing splashbacks and structural glass into homes and commercial properties across South West London and Surrey. Customers come back because we take care of all of it.

Behind a gas hob the glass needs to be toughened — that's not optional, and we won't supply annealed glass for that position. Away from direct heat there is more freedom, including mirrored, bronze-tinted and printed splashbacks.

Answers

Frequently asked questions

Can I have a glass splashback behind a gas hob?

Yes, provided it's toughened glass — which is what we supply for that position as standard. Toughened glass handles the thermal stress of a hob; ordinary annealed glass does not and can crack. Keep to the hob manufacturer's stated clearances and it's entirely straightforward.

How are splashbacks fixed to the wall?

Normally on a high-grade silicone or a purpose-made adhesive onto a flat, sound, dry wall. That leaves no visible fixings. Where the wall isn't flat enough we'll say so at template stage — glass doesn't follow a bowed wall, and forcing it is how panels crack.

Can you cut holes for sockets?

Yes, and it must be done before toughening. Cut-outs for sockets, switches and extractor fixings are made from the template and the edges polished, then the panel is toughened. Nothing can be cut or drilled after that.

How do I clean it?

Any ordinary glass cleaner and a soft cloth. There's no grout, so there is nowhere for grease to sit. Avoid abrasive pads and scouring creams, which will dull the surface over time.

Can you match my exact paint colour?

Effectively any RAL or Farrow & Ball reference, and we can colour-match to a physical sample. Ask for a sample piece before committing — colour behind glass reads slightly differently from colour on a wall, and it's worth seeing.
