Each powerpoint and tap needs a precise cut-out made before the glass is toughened, you cannot drill it afterwards. Confirm every cut-out at the template stage, a mistake means a new panel.
Glass splashbacks are seamless (no grout), easy to clean and available in any colour. They are made to measure and toughened, so the template and cut-outs must be exact, changes after toughening mean a new panel.
Ways to save
- Standard coloured glass is cheaper, use low-iron only for whites and pale colours where the green tint shows.
- Confirm every cut-out at the template stage, errors mean a whole new panel.

What a glass splashback costs in Perth
What a Perth glass splashback costs is set by the square metres of wall it covers, the back-painted colour or printed finish chosen, and how many cutouts it needs for power points, because the panel is one toughened sheet behind the bench or cooktop. A small panel in a stock colour is the low end, and a long run, a metallic or custom-printed finish, or several cutouts the higher, so the area, the finish and the cutouts settle the Perth figure.
A light, reflective colour on a Perth splashback bounces the bright Mediterranean light around a double-brick home's kitchen, and the grout-free sheet wipes clean in a renovation. A panel is measured on site, then toughened and colour-backed at the factory before going up in one piece, so the template and the colour match are what matter. A gas cooktop needs its set clearance behind the glass, and a sparky disconnects and reconnects any power point in the cutout. The WA market's distance can stretch the wait on a custom printed panel. A glazier or splashback installer does the fit, with a licensed electrician on the power points, in Western Australia under WA Building Services.
Fitting the panel is a glazier's or splashback installer's job, not a licensed building trade, so no building licence applies, while a licensed electrician handles any power-point disconnection and a gas cooktop keeps its clearance, in Western Australia under WA Building Services. A Perth splashback prices from the area, the colour or finish, and the cutouts, with a light reflective colour favoured for the bright Mediterranean light.
